Product overview

The Hoshizaki KM-1100MAJ50 makes individual crescent ice with a stainless steel evaporator and a durable stainless steel exterior. This air-cooled modular ice-making head supplies a separate compatible storage bin or dispenser; it does not include built-in ice storage. Rated production reaches 464 kg per 24 hours at 21°C air / 10°C water. The air-cooled condenser uses removable filters to support routine airflow maintenance.

CycleSaver ice-making operation and the EverCheck alert system support day-to-day operation. Match the machine to the site utilities and provide access for cleaning, condenser service and bin maintenance.

  • 464 kg per day: Rated at 21°C air / 10°C water.
  • 50 Hz single-phase: Hardwired supply; no cord or plug included.
  • Air-cooled: Removable air filters.

Production and utility use

At 32°C air / 21°C water, consumption is 5.65 kWh and 72 liters of potable water per 45 kg of ice. Production changes with air and water temperatures, water quality and installation conditions. Daily output is not storage capacity; select a bin for the amount of ice the operation needs to hold.

Installation and bin selection

Install the ice-making head indoors on a firm, level, properly supported bin or dispenser, away from ovens, grills and other high-heat equipment. Allow at least 30 cm (12 inches) at the rear, sides and top for airflow and service. Verify the complete installed dimensions, connection projections, bin height and legs before preparing the location.

Confirm the exact bin, top kit and ice-drop opening before ordering. A shared nominal width does not establish compatibility. Use the bin and top-kit chart with the installation manual; some combinations require a top kit or a two-unit arrangement. Storage bins, dispensers and top kits are sold separately.

Electrical requirements

Have a licensed electrician provide an independent, properly grounded 220–240V / 50Hz / single phase supply with 20A circuit protection. The machine must be hardwired on site; a receptacle alone is not a complete installation. Match the delivered nameplate, transformer settings and wiring diagram. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle.

Water supply and drainage

Connect potable water only through the ½-inch FPT inlet, with shutoff and drain valves. Have the installer size the feed and drain to the exact manual and local piping standard. Reduce pressure above 779 kPa. Select filtration for local water quality and keep the piping accessible for service.

The ice-machine drain has a ¾-inch FPT outlet. Provide a vented tee, a ¼-inch fall per horizontal foot and at least a 2-inch vertical air gap above the floor drain. Keep ice-machine and storage-bin drains separate; do not connect directly to the sewer. The condensate drain may join the ice-machine drain or run separately as directed in the manual.

Cleaning and maintenance

Clean and rinse the ice scoop daily. Inspect removable air filters every two weeks and wash with warm water and neutral cleaner when dirty. Check external water filters and wipe the exterior, underside, top kit and bin door monthly. Arrange cleaning and sanitation of the ice machine and storage bin at least yearly; water quality, the environment and local sanitation rules may require more frequent service. Have the water-inlet screen, hoses and condenser inspected yearly and cleaned as needed.

Disconnect electrical power before servicing, follow the complete cleaning procedure and chemical labels, and do not use ammonia-type cleaners. Automatic controls do not replace sanitation. Have the water system drained for prolonged shutdowns or freezing conditions.

Warranty and ordering

Contact Hoshizaki for warranty terms applicable to the KM-1100MAJ50 and the installation country. Confirm 220–240V, 50Hz, single-phase power before ordering; this model is not a 60Hz substitute.
