Hoshizaki Crescent Ice Maker KMD-270ABE-R452 Overview

Hoshizaki rates the modular KMD-270ABE-R452 at 275 kg of crescent ice per 24 hours, and you pair it with a storage bin sized to the ice needed at the start of service (Hoshizaki lists the B-140SB, B-210SB, B-340SB). That works out to roughly 11.5 kg an hour.

Specs worth checking

The cabinet is 560 mm wide, 625 mm deep and 610 mm tall, and weighs 57 kg. It draws 0.984 kW from a single-phase 220-240 V 50 Hz supply, within ±6%, on a 5 A breaker. Plan for 2.44 kW of heat into the space at 32 °C. Water consumption comes to 980 liters per 24 hours, or roughly 3.6 liters for every kilo of ice. The KMD-270ABE-R452 uses R452A, 780 g.

Installation notes

Keep the room around the KMD-270ABE-R452 between 7 and 40 °C and the incoming water between 7 and 35 °C at 0.7 to 8 bar. Air-cooled, it puts its 2.44 kW of heat straight into the room, so a closed pantry needs some ventilation. Hoshizaki matches the KMD-270ABE-R452 with the 4HC-H twin filter system. For mounting the KMD-270ABE-R452 on a bin, Hoshizaki lists TK-8D for B-210SB, TK-8D + TK18D for B-340SB. Supply, water and fixing for the KMD-270ABE-R452 are confirmed per vessel when we quote, since the figures above describe Hoshizaki's standard build.
