Description

The Hoshizaki KM-1601SWJ 48" crescent cube ice machine head is a top choice for commercial kitchens, restaurants, and bars that demand high-performance ice production. Engineered to produce up to 1,660 pounds of Hoshizaki’s signature slow-melting crescent cube ice in 24 hours, this water-cooled unit is built for efficiency and durability. Its proprietary ice shape is harder and melts more slowly than traditional cubes, making it perfect for soda fountains, mixed drinks, and bagged ice applications—ensuring your beverages stay colder longer. This industrial-grade ice machine features Hoshizaki’s CycleSaver™ technology, which maximizes ice production by freezing water on a two-sided evaporator, reducing energy costs while maintaining output. The heavy-duty stainless steel exterior and evaporator resist corrosion, while the water-cooled system prevents overheating, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding environments. EverCheck™ technology provides proactive maintenance alerts with an audible alarm, helping you avoid costly downtime. Additionally, the H-Guard Plus™ antimicrobial agent slows bacterial growth between cleanings, promoting hygiene and prolonging the unit’s lifespan. Ideal for restaurants, hotels, and beverage businesses, the Hoshizaki KM-1601SWJ is designed for ease of cleaning and service with removable panels, making maintenance straightforward. Its 208-230V/1ph power requirement and compact 27.38" depth make it a versatile fit for commercial kitchens.
