Hoshizaki, IM Series 45kg Small Cubed Ice Machine – IM-45CWNE-HC-25 (water cooled)

Description

The Hoshizaki Electric company was founded by Mr Shigetoshi Sakamoto who demonstrated remarkable foresight when he started Hoshizaki in Nagoya Japan 1947. From an early stage Mr Sakamoto recognised the need to invest in research and technology and in 1959 his son Seishi joined the company. Together the pair worked with engineers who shared their vision and the breakthrough came with their invention of the first ice machine in Japan in 1965. With the company’s reputation for invention and consistent quality established at home in Japan, businesses from across the world began to demand Hoshizaki products. And gradually, with expansion firstly in Asia, America, then Europe and most recently the Middle East and Africa, Hoshizaki has become a truly global company reaching customers in over 100 countries.

From humble beginnings, Hoshizaki equipment now serves the world, enabling customers to preserve, innovate, to heal and to educate in the professional, health, hospitality, bio-science, marine and education industries across every continent and in all climates. Placing reliability, durability and energy efficiency at the centre of the design process, generations of Hoshizaki engineers have helped build an international reputation for high quality, well-designed products. By merging with refrigeration specialist Gram Commercial, Hoshizaki have brought together the brilliance of Japanese engineering and the intelligence of Danish design. The collaboration has created the world’s most connected, innovative and responsible manufacturer of cold solutions. Together, They continue to explore the realms of possibility.

Hoshizaki ice machines are renowned for their sustainability, efficiency, and advanced technology in ice production. Utilizing refrigerant R290, these machines prioritize environmental friendliness while boosting performance and production capacity. Crafted with a stainless steel exterior and featuring a closed water circuit, they ensure maximum protection against contamination throughout the cubing process, while remaining easy to use, clean, and maintain. Unique technology, such as a dedicated jet of fresh water injected into closed cells, guarantees the production of pure ice while preventing calcification and mineral build-up. Smart design elements like a magnetic water pump without direct coupling improve the machine’s lifespan and prevent leaks. With a focus on versatility, Hoshizaki ice machines cater to various industries including foodservice and medical sectors, delivering consistent high-quality ice cubes without the need for manual adjustments.

Sustainable
The IM-45WNE-HC-25 uses refrigerant R290.  This natural refrigerant is not only climate-friendly but also boosts the machine, when it comes to performance and production capacity.
The exterior is made of stainless steel. The closed water circuit provides maximum protection against any type of contamination during the entire cubing process. All Hoshizaki machines are easy to use, clean, and maintain.

Unique Technology
A dedicated jet of fresh water is injected into each of the closed cells. Excess water leaves the closed cell through a set of outlets. The cell walls block the freezing water’s expansion from all sides while reaching down to -30°C during the cubing process. Thanks to the automatic rinse cycles, impurities such as minerals, are eliminated from the water resulting in the purest ice possible while your machine is protected from calcification and mineral build-up.

Smart Design
Like all Hoshizaki Ice makers, the IM-45WNE-HC-25 is designed to last and comes with smart design extras such as a magnetic water pump without direct coupling. This element prevents leakage from the water circuit and improves the life expectancy of the machine.

Perfect Fit
With outside dimensions W x D x H of 503 x 456 x 840 mm,  the IM-45WNE-HC-25 is compact and is a perfect fit for small spaces.

Plug&Play
The smart plug-and-play design guarantees an easy and quick set-up.

Warranty
Hoshizaki offers a practical assurance with a two-year parts and labour warranty. This warranty underscores Gram’s confidence in the durability and performance of its products, providing customers with reliable support and protection against potential issues.
