115v "TouchFree" Nugget Ice Maker-Dispenser with 409 lb Ice Maker and 26 lb Capacity Bin, Each
A consumer preference, soft and chewable nugget ice is versatile and slow-melting, cooling drinks rapidly without wasteful foaming and keeping them cool longer, while maintaining their flavor. With this air-cooled countertop ice maker, both nugget ice and water are available quickly and easily. Nugget ice consists of hard, cylindrical, randomly-sized bits of ice that are actually compacted flake ice. These hard bits of ice remain free-flowing at all times, and make iced displays look crisper and stay fresh longer. An excellent choice for small cafes, break rooms, teacher lounges, medical facilities, and many other applications. Specifically designed to meet the requirements of health care facilities, the TouchFree dispensing system is a favorite for health care, food service, and in the laboratory. Rather than levers or buttons, sensors determine when to dispense water or ice, minimizing the possibility of cross-contamination. This one-hand TouchFree operation complies with the most stringent requirements of the National Sanitation Foundation and the spirit of the Americans with Disabilities Act. This machine features an all stainless steel finish, with attractive rounded corners and informative instruction labels, perfect for any beverage service environment. Up to 25% less fan noise than previous models allows installation in the quietest hallways. Improved dispensing with easier access and room for most containers. Bin can hold enough ice to serve 75 persons in line at one time, and with its quick recovery can maintain a high number of vends all day. <br /><br />8-3/4" cup clearance from drip tray to dispensers.
