Ice-O-Matic GEM0450A90 21" Air-Cooled Pearl Nugget Ice Machine Head, 415 lb/24 hr, R290, 115V
A 21" air-cooled head that makes soft, chewable Pearl nugget ice on top of a bin or dispenser.
The Ice-O-Matic GEM0450A90 is a 21" air-cooled modular pearl ice machine head that makes soft, chewable Pearl nugget-style ice. It is rated at 415 lb per 24 hours at 70°F air / 50°F water, or 303 lb at 90°F air / 70°F water. It runs on R290 refrigerant and connects to a 115/60/1 circuit with a 15 A maximum breaker. It ships as the head only: the storage bin or dispenser is sold separately.
Measure the space on top of the bin: the head is 21" wide and 24.25" deep.
Soft, chewable Pearl ice cools drinks faster and longer while keeping flavors, and uses less water and power than cube ice makers, per Ice-O-Matic.
The load monitoring system checks gearbox workload and shuts the system down before a problem develops.
A water sensor prevents low or no water failures and works in adverse water conditions.
A stainless steel evaporator, maintenance-free double roller bearings and a heavy-duty gearbox.
Built-in, non-contact ice detection gives a fail-safe automatic shutoff.
No. The GEM0450A90 ships as the head only. Ice-O-Matic suggests these bin combinations: B40 with the KBT19 kit; B42 with the KBT24 kit; B55 with the KBT19 kit; B110 with the KBT23C kit.
415 lb per 24 hours at 70°F air / 50°F water and 303 lb at 90°F air / 70°F water. Hotter rooms and warmer water lower output.
A 115/60/1 supply. The sheet lists a minimum circuit ampacity of 10.7 A and a maximum breaker of 15 A.
A 3/8" FPT potable water inlet and a 3/4" FPT drain. Potable water use is 12 gal per 100 lb of ice at 90°F air / 70°F water. Water pressure must be 20 to 80 psi.
3 years parts and labor on the ice maker, 5 years parts on the compressor.
Ice-O-Matic pairs it with the IFQ1-FS manifold system, which takes the IOMQ-FS replacement filter.
