Product Description

The Ice-O-Matic HEM0450A90 is a 21 inch air-cooled modular Quartz ice machine head that produces 300 to 400 lb of harder, slower-melting nugget-style ice per 24 hours.

Quartz Ice Instead of Pearl Ice

The HEM0450A90 is part of Ice-O-Matic's HEM line, built in the same GEM-MFI-HEM series cabinet but producing a harder Quartz nugget engineered for better dispensing and a slower melt rate than the softer Pearl ice made by the equivalent GEM0450A90. Operators choose Quartz when dispensing behavior and melt rate matter more than the softest possible chew.

Air Cooling on a Standard 115V Circuit

The HEM0450A90 rejects condenser heat into the kitchen air on a 115V/60Hz/1-phase circuit, avoiding the condenser water and drain connection the water-cooled HEM0450W90 needs. That keeps the install simple at the cost of adding heat load to the surrounding space.

R290 Refrigerant at the Entry of the HEM Line

The unit runs on R290A, a low-GWP hydrocarbon refrigerant, and produces less daily output than the equivalent-tier GEM0450A90, which is rated 400 to 500 lb, reflecting the harder Quartz formulation's different production rate.
