Overview

Skope SPIKA NG50A Half Dice Self-Contained Ice Cube Maker R290

The Skope SPIKA NG50A is a self-contained commercial ice cube maker designed to produce up to 45 kg of half dice ice every 24 hours, making it a reliable workhorse for bars, cafes, restaurants and high-volume drinks venues. The unit produces the distinctive SPIKA Half Dice cube, measuring 23 x 11 x 26 mm, which is widely used in the hospitality industry for its harder composition and slower melt rate, keeping drinks colder for longer without diluting them.

Built from AISI 304 stainless steel and powered by R290 hydrocarbon natural refrigerant, the SPIKA NG50A combines durable construction with a minimal environmental footprint and low running costs. The machine operates effectively across an ambient temperature range of 10°C to 43°C, features electronic control for consistent performance, and can be paired with a SILO ice storage bin for expanded capacity and added convenience in busy service environments.

Key Benefits

• Produces up to 45 kg of half dice ice per 24 hours, ensuring a steady supply during peak service periods.
• Half dice cube format is harder and slower melting than softer ice types, preserving drink quality and reducing ice turnover.
• R290 natural refrigerant delivers excellent energy efficiency with a near-zero global warming potential, supporting sustainability goals.
• Operates across a wide ambient temperature range of 10°C to 43°C, suited to warm commercial kitchen and bar environments.
• Low power draw of 0.42 kW and 1.41 amps keeps ongoing electricity costs manageable for the production volume delivered.
• AISI 304 stainless steel body resists corrosion and withstands the demands of daily commercial use, simplifying cleaning and maintenance.
• Electronic control system enables precise, consistent ice production with straightforward operation for staff.
• On-board 20 kg ice storage capacity keeps a ready supply accessible without requiring an immediately adjacent bin.
• Compatible with Skope SILO ice storage bins for increased holding capacity and a more streamlined, high-volume ice service setup.
