Hoshizaki C-80BAK-ADDS 92 lb/Day Air-Cooled Mini Cubelet Ice Machine with Storage Bin - ADA Height - Custom Panel Ready

Product overview

The Hoshizaki C-80BAK-ADDS produces mini cubelet ice and stores up to 27 lb in its integrated bin. Its self-contained air-cooled system makes up to 92 lb per 24 hours at 70°F air and 50°F water, with front-in, front-out airflow for undercounter installation.

This 31½-inch-high model has a custom-panel-ready door. The lower cabinet is designated ADA compliant; the finished installation must also provide suitable access. Supply a custom overlay panel and handle to match the cabinetry; the example wood panel is not included.

• ◉ Up to 92 lb/day: Rated at 70°F air and 50°F water.
• ▤ 27 lb built-in storage: No separate ice bin required.
• ↔ 31½-inch cabinet: ADA-height custom-panel-ready model.

Specifications

Storage capacity is separate from daily ice production. Output varies with air and water temperatures, water quality and installation. Confirm the complete installed depth, handle or overlay projection and utility space before final cabinet fabrication.

Custom panel preparation

Have a professional cabinetmaker prepare an overlay panel 27 9/16 inches high × 14 13/16 inches wide, between ⅝ and ¾ inch thick. The combined overlay-panel and door weight must not exceed 20 lb. Follow the exact routed channel, hole pattern, inserts and countersunk handle-hardware instructions. Confirm door handing before fabrication and retain full door travel.

Built-in and outdoor installation

Install level on a firm, finished-floor surface away from ovens, grills and other high-heat equipment. Keep at least 15 inches clear in front and sufficient space at the rear for water and drain connections. No side or top ventilation clearance is required, but the minimum opening dimensions still apply. Do not let the countertop rest on the machine or block removal for service.

The machine is UL approved for outdoor use within its operating conditions. It will not operate at sub-freezing temperatures. Drain and winterize the machine, water lines and any optional pump before freezing exposure or extended non-use, following the complete manual procedure.

R-290 is flammable. Provide at least 2.6 m² (27.8 sq. ft.) of room floor area for operation or storage. Keep ignition sources away, protect the refrigerant circuit and use qualified flammable-refrigerant service personnel. Do not install above 2,000 m (6,561 ft).

Electrical supply and drainage

Use an independent, properly grounded outlet matched to the nameplate, without an extension cord or adapter. Check actual cord reach before installation. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a receptacle. Qualified personnel must follow the delivered instructions and applicable codes.

Connect potable water using at least ¼-inch nominal-ID copper tubing or equivalent, with shutoff and drain valves. Provide pressure reduction above 113 PSIG and correct water hammer. Keep inlet water between 45°F and 90°F.

For gravity drainage, use at least ½-inch nominal-ID hard pipe or equivalent, with a vented tee extending at least 12 inches above the drain outlet. Provide a ¼-inch fall per horizontal foot and a minimum 2-inch vertical air gap above an approved floor drain. Do not connect directly to the sewer. Where water damage is a concern, use a contained installation area with a floor drain.

Optional installation accessories

The HS-5061 drain pump, H9320-51 water filter, HS-0182 side trim kit and HS-2133 2-inch top spacer kit are sold separately. Select accessories for the finished installation and follow their own fitting instructions. A pump does not remove the need for correct drain routing or periodic testing.

Cleaning and service

Clean and thoroughly rinse the scoop weekly. Wipe the exterior monthly with a soft cloth and neutral cleaner, and maintain the storage-bin drain every three months. Perform the manual’s monthly drain cycle. Clean and sanitize the machine and bin at least every six months, including the evaporator and gear-motor drain pans; check external water filters at that service. Shorten these intervals when water quality, use or local sanitation requirements call for it.

Arrange annual qualified inspection of the water-inlet screen, condenser and hoses. Have qualified service personnel inspect the upper bearing annually and both bearings and the mechanical seal annually after three years. Check extruding-head seal bolts at six-month service; replace bolts that have been removed. Test an installed HS-5061 pump every six months and whenever cleaning or sanitation is performed. Unplug before service, keep hands and objects out of the ice-making mechanism, and use the exact cleaning and sanitizing procedure. Do not use ammonia-type cleaners.

Limited warranty

The machine carries two-year limited parts-and-labor coverage; an optional HS-5061 drain pump has separate one-year parts-and-labor coverage. Register within 30 days of installation and retain proof of installation. Coverage requires proper installation, use and maintenance; travel, mileage and premium labor charges are excluded. Review the AM and C Series warranty for territorial coverage, start-date rules and all exclusions.
