Detailed Features & Benefits


Advanced Ice Production Technology: The KM-161BAJ utilizes Hoshizaki's innovative crescent ice technology, producing up to 163 lbs of ice per day. The individual crescent-shaped cubes are formed on a stainless steel evaporator, ensuring high-quality, crystal-clear ice. This shape is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, as it allows for efficient cooling of beverages without rapid dilution. The CycleSaver™ design further enhances efficiency by reducing the number of start-stop cycles, which not only saves energy but also extends the life of the compressor. This combination of high production capacity and energy efficiency makes the KM-161BAJ an excellent choice for businesses looking to balance performance with operational costs.

User-Friendly Design and Maintenance: The KM-161BAJ is engineered with user convenience and easy maintenance in mind. The front-in, front-out airflow design, coupled with a removable air filter, simplifies routine cleaning and maintenance tasks. This design not only extends the life of the machine but also ensures consistent ice production quality over time. The EverCheck™ alert system further enhances maintenance efficiency by monitoring the machine's status and alerting users to potential issues before they become serious problems. Additionally, the power switch is accessible without panel removal, allowing for quick and easy operation. The slide-in door design provides easy access to the ice storage bin, making ice retrieval simple and efficient. These features collectively contribute to reduced downtime, lower maintenance costs, and improved operational efficiency for businesses relying on consistent ice production.


NOTICE: Ensure proper maintenance and cleaning of your ice machine to guarantee the highest quality ice production and machine longevity.
