Overview

Hoshizaki KM-590DJ-S Modular Crescent Ice Maker – Up to 590kg Per Day

The Hoshizaki KM-590DJ-S is a high-capacity modular crescent ice maker built for the most demanding commercial settings, including nightclubs, hotels, stadiums, large bars, and major entertainment venues. Under standard conditions of 21°C air and 15°C water, it delivers up to 590kg of clear, hard crescent ice every 24 hours, climbing to as high as 630kg per day when ambient and water temperatures are cooler, placing it among the most productive air-cooled modular heads across the entire Hoshizaki KM range.

Central to its performance is Hoshizaki's CycleSaver® technology, which incorporates a double-sided stainless steel evaporator engineered to freeze ice on both faces at once, yielding a greater volume of ice per cycle in less time while keeping energy and water usage to a minimum. Sold as a modular head only, the unit requires a compatible Hoshizaki storage bin, a top kit, and a water filter, each available separately, giving operators the freedom to build a configuration that matches their specific storage capacity and throughput needs.

Key Benefits

• Delivers up to 590kg of crescent ice within every 24-hour period under standard operating conditions, sustaining a reliable supply even during peak trading hours.
• CycleSaver® dual-surface evaporator technology maximises the volume of ice produced in each freeze cycle, lowering energy consumption and overall operating costs.
• Crystal-clear, dense crescent ice melts at a slow rate, limiting drink dilution and elevating beverage presentation across front-of-house service.
• HoshiGuard Antimicrobial Agent protection is built into ice-contact components to support hygiene standards throughout the machine.
• The EverCheck™ Control Board features an audible alert together with onboard diagnostic capabilities, enabling technicians to pinpoint and address faults swiftly and reduce costly downtime.
• Front-panel air filters are designed for quick removal and cleaning without the need for specialist tools, keeping routine maintenance straightforward.
• Modular architecture is compatible with a broad selection of Hoshizaki ice storage bins and dispensers, making it simple to scale the system to suit venue size and demand.
• Robust stainless steel exterior construction stands up to the pressures of a busy commercial kitchen and wipes down easily for fast cleaning.
