Overview

Scotsman MC 2148 MR Modular Dice Ice Maker – 869kg Daily Output

The Scotsman MC 2148 MR is a heavy-duty modular dice ice maker delivering up to 869 kg of crystal-clear, solid dice ice every 24 hours, making it one of the highest-capacity air-cooled ice makers available for professional foodservice and hospitality operations. Producing perfectly formed 22 x 22 x 22 mm cubes weighing approximately 10 g each, this head-only unit pairs with a separately selected Scotsman storage bin such as the NB 948 or UBH 1100, giving operators flexibility to configure total ice storage capacity to suit their venue.

Engineered for continuous operation in demanding environments including hotels, bars, large restaurants, entertainment venues, and catering facilities, the MC 2148 MR combines Scotsman's vertical evaporator spray-system technology with Agion antimicrobial treatment and electronic adaptive controls to maintain exceptional ice clarity, hygiene, and consistency shift after shift. Routine maintenance is straightforward thanks to front-access servicing, a one-touch cleaning mode, and a water filter cartridge replacement interval of every six months, all contributing to a longer machine lifespan and reliably high ice quality.

Key Benefits

• Exceptional 869 kg per 24-hour output ensures high-volume venues never run short of ice during peak service periods.
• Crystal-clear, slow-melting dice cubes are ideal for beverages, food displays, and bulk cooling applications where presentation matters.
• Agion antimicrobial technology actively inhibits microbial growth and odour development throughout the ice-making circuit, supporting food safety standards.
• Water Sense adaptive purge control automatically adjusts purge cycles to reduce scale accumulation, protecting ice quality and reducing descaling frequency.
• One-touch button cleaning mode minimises labour time during routine sanitation and helps staff maintain the machine correctly without specialist knowledge.
• Front-accessible condenser air filter and removable filter design simplify scheduled maintenance and keep the condenser operating efficiently.
• External indicator lights give staff at-a-glance visibility of operational status and maintenance alerts, reducing response time to service needs.
• Air-cooled design with an optional remote condenser (ECR 611) allows heat and noise to be directed away from the service area, improving working conditions.
• Stainless-steel exterior resists corrosion and withstands the rigours of a busy commercial kitchen environment while remaining easy to clean.
