Overview

Scotsman MC 1848 MA Modular Dice Ice Maker 736kg

The Scotsman MC 1848 MA is a high-capacity modular dice ice maker designed for demanding commercial hospitality and foodservice environments. Producing up to 736 kg of solid, crystal-clear dice ice every 24 hours, this head-only unit is ideal for hotels, bars, restaurants, clubs, and catering operations that require a continuous, high-volume supply of quality ice. Each cube measures 22 x 22 x 22 mm and weighs approximately 10 g, delivering a classic dice format that is slow-melting and well-suited to cocktails, soft drinks, and food displays.

Built around a vertical evaporator spray-system and air-cooled condenser, the MC 1848 MA combines efficient operation with straightforward day-to-day management. Agion antimicrobial technology is integrated throughout to inhibit microbial growth and odour development, while the Water Sense adaptive purge control and one-touch cleaning system help maintain ice purity and reduce mineral scale build-up. The unit is designed to pair with compatible Scotsman NB 948 or UBH 1100 storage bins, creating a complete modular ice system sized to match the busiest service conditions. Regular six-monthly water filter cartridge replacement and evaporator de-scaling are recommended to sustain ice quality, machine longevity, and food safety compliance.

Key Benefits

• Delivers up to 736 kg of clear dice ice per 24 hours, keeping pace with the ice demands of high-volume venues without interruption.
• Solid, slow-melting 22 x 22 x 22 mm dice cubes chill beverages efficiently and present well in food displays, reducing over-pouring of ice.
• Agion antimicrobial technology actively resists microbial growth and odour development throughout the ice-making components, supporting consistent hygiene and food safety.
• Water Sense adaptive purge control automatically manages water quality cycles, reducing scale accumulation and extending the time between manual maintenance interventions.
• One-touch cleaning mode streamlines the sanitation process, saving staff time and ensuring the system is cleaned consistently.
• Air-cooled modular design simplifies installation and integrates readily with Scotsman NB 948 or UBH 1100 storage bins for a scalable, high-capacity ice system.
• Front-access condenser air filter and external indicator lights make routine servicing and operational monitoring quick and straightforward for kitchen staff.
• Robust stainless-steel exterior withstands the rigours of a busy commercial kitchen environment while remaining easy to wipe down and maintain.
• Electronic controls with simple electromechanical reliability reduce the likelihood of complex faults, supporting consistent uptime in high-demand service situations.
