Hoshizaki F-1002MRJZ-SC 864 lb/Day Remote-Cooled Soft Cubelet Ice Machine
F-1002MRJZ-SC
Product overview
The Hoshizaki F-1002MRJZ-SC is a remote air-cooled modular soft cubelet ice maker producing up to 864 lb per 24 hours at 70°F air and 50°F water. This product supplies the ice-making head; the compatible storage assembly and any required top kit are sold separately.
A stainless steel exterior and stainless steel auger with a greaseless bearing support the ice-making assembly. Advanced CleanCycle24 runs a two-second flush every hour to help remove sediment. The hourly flush does not replace cleaning and sanitizing.
The separately sold URC-5FZ remote condenser and matched line set are required. Have the head, condenser, refrigerant piping and electrical interconnection installed and commissioned as one compatible system.
- Up to 864 lb/day — Rated at 70°F air / 50°F water.
- Remote air-cooled system — URC-5FZ condenser and line set sold separately.
- Soft Cubelet ice — Head only; compatible storage assembly sold separately.

Storage and bin control
Use an ice storage bin only; this soft cubelet model must not be installed on a dispenser. The installation requires a bin at least 22 inches wide; the B-300 Series is the recommended bin family. Size the storage assembly for the expected demand and the exact head mounting pattern.
Additional listed bin options include B-250SF, B-300SF, B-500SF, B-700SF, B-800SF, B-900SF, B-1150SS and B-1300SS. B-1500SS and B-1650SS applications require two heads. A top kit may be required; confirm the complete head, bin and adapter combination before ordering. These are separate accessories, not included storage capacity.
Bin control depends on the auxiliary code: N-2 units use an infrared sensor; N-3 and later units use an ultrasonic sensor, with a mechanical backup control. Match installation and service procedures to the delivered auxiliary code, keep the sensing area clear and set the shutoff level for the chosen storage assembly.
Match the mounting surface and ice opening to the delivered head drawing. Provide a separate bin-control opening at least 1½ inches in diameter and keep the sensing path unobstructed.
Installation and electrical requirements
Install the head indoors on a firm, level foundation away from ovens, grills and other high-heat equipment. Leave at least 6 inches clear at the rear and sides and 24 inches above for auger removal and service. Confirm the complete installed dimensions and storage-assembly height before positioning.
Qualified personnel must hardwire the 115V, single-phase supply to applicable electrical codes and the delivered nameplate. No power cord or plug is included. The ⅞-inch access opening accepts a ½-inch trade-size conduit connection. Provide line, neutral and ground; connect the white lead to neutral. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle.
Water and drainage
Provide potable water through the ½-inch-FPT inlet with a supply line of at least ¼-inch nominal inside diameter. Use the ¾-inch-FPT head drain with at least ¾-inch nominal-ID hard drain pipe. Vent and drain the head and storage assembly independently, with a fall of at least ¼ inch per foot and at least a 2-inch air gap at the floor drain. Fit accessible shutoff and drain valves and follow local plumbing codes.
Remote condenser and refrigerant lines
Use the URC-5FZ with a matched line set, both sold separately. Install the condenser outdoors within −20–122°F, leaving at least 24 inches clear in front and behind and full service access. Limit condenser elevation to 33 feet above or 10 feet below the head, measured fitting to fitting.
For runs up to 66 feet, use ¼-inch-OD liquid and ⅜-inch-OD discharge lines. Runs over 66 feet, up to 100 feet, require ⅜-inch-OD liquid and ½-inch-OD discharge lines plus the specified refrigerant-charge adjustment. Have qualified technicians braze, leak-test, evacuate and commission the system. Insulate lines separately, provide the required service loop and avoid traps, kinks or coiled excess.
Have the electrician follow the delivered wiring diagram for the head-to-condenser interconnection and grounding. Keep the head powered for at least four hours before startup to protect the compressor.
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean and thoroughly rinse the scoop daily. Each month, check external water filters and clean the exterior, bin-control lens, underside of the head, top kits, and bin door or dispensing snout with the specified neutral cleaner and rinse procedure.
Clean and sanitize the head and complete storage assembly at least every six months, more frequently where water quality or sanitation requirements demand it. Include the evaporator condensate and gear-motor drain pans, verify that drains are clear, and have qualified personnel inspect extruding-head seal bolts. Removed seal bolts must be replaced because their sealing material is single-use.
Annual service includes the inlet-water screen and drain valve, water hoses, condenser, fasteners, wiring and upper-bearing wear. After three years, have qualified personnel inspect the upper and lower bearings, O-ring, mechanical seal, evaporator cylinder and auger annually and replace worn parts to the service-manual criteria.
Disconnect and lock out power before service. Use the specified cleaning and sanitizing concentrations and rinse thoroughly; do not use ammonia-type cleaners. Refit and secure every component, fastener and thumbscrew. Follow the complete draining and winterization procedure before extended non-use or freezing conditions.
Limited warranty
Limited coverage provides three years of machine parts and labor and five years of compressor parts for the original owner/user. Applicable air-cooled condenser-coil parts are also covered for five years. Register within 30 days of installation and retain installation records. Standard coverage applies in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and U.S. territories. Travel, mileage and premium labor are excluded, as are damage from improper installation, utilities or maintenance. Review the written warranty for start-date rules and full terms.
