Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage

C. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage

CAUTION

When storing the icemaker for an extended time or in sub-freezing temperatures, follow the instructions below to prevent damage.

When the icemaker is not used for two or three days under normal conditions, it is sufficient to move the control switch to the "OFF" position. When storing the icemaker for an extended time or in sub-freezing temperatures, follow the instructions below.

1)Close the water supply line shut-off valve, then open the water supply line drain valve. See Fig. 30.

2)Allow the line to drain by gravity.

3)Attach a compressed air or carbon dioxide supply to the icemaker water supply line drain.

4)Move the control switch to the "ICE" position.

5)Blow the icemaker water supply line out using the compressed air or carbon dioxide supply.

6)Close the icemaker water supply line drain valve.

7)Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.

8)Unplug the icemaker.

9)Remove all ice from the storage bin. Clean the storage bin liner using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.

AM-50BAE-DS, AM-50BAE-ADDS, AM-50BAE-AD specifications

The Hoshizaki AM-50BAE series is a well-regarded line of ice makers designed for commercial applications. Among its notable models are the AM-50BAE-ADDS, AM-50BAE-AD, and AM-50BAE-DS, each providing efficient ice production with different configurations to meet varied needs.

A primary feature of the AM-50BAE series is its ability to produce high-quality, crescent-shaped ice. This type of ice is ideal for maintaining the integrity of beverages, as it allows melty ice to cool drinks without diluting them too quickly. The crescent shape ensures optimal bite and retention of cold temperatures, a highly sought-after feature in foodservice settings.

The series is equipped with a reliable and efficient refrigeration system. This technology enhances the unit's capability to produce a significant amount of ice in a short amount of time. Depending on the model, the daily ice production can reach up to 98 pounds, catering to the demands of various commercial environments such as restaurants, bars, and convenience stores.

Another key characteristic is the durable stainless steel construction, which not only provides a sleek appearance but also ensures longevity and easy maintenance. The exterior material resists rust and corrosion, making it suitable for environments exposed to moisture and other elements.

All models feature a built-in ice bin, which simplifies storage and accessibility. The AM-50BAE-ADDS stands out with its additional self-dispensing capabilities, allowing for direct service to customers without the need for manual handling. This is particularly beneficial in high-traffic areas where speed and efficiency are critical.

Moreover, the AM-50BAE series incorporates advanced technology such as energy-saving mode and self-diagnostic functions. These features help in monitoring the machine’s performance, promptly alerting users of any potential malfunctions, thus minimizing downtime.

For added convenience, the intuitive control panel facilitates easy operation and ensures that users can quickly adjust settings according to their specific ice needs. The low noise operation is another advantage, making it ideal for environments where sound levels must be kept to a minimum.

In summary, the Hoshizaki AM-50BAE-ADDS, AM-50BAE-AD, and AM-50BAE-DS models are exemplary choices for those seeking efficient and high-quality ice production in commercial settings. Their combination of innovative technologies, durable construction, and user-friendly features makes them stand out in the competitive ice machine market.
