    Description Our Ordering Process

    Hoshizaki FM-480AKE-HC-SB 400kg Modular Flake Ice Maker

    The Hoshizaki FM-480AKE-HC-SB is a high-capacity commercial modular flake ice maker producing approximately 400kg of premium flake ice every 24 hours at 21°C air / 15°C water conditions, with production reaching approximately 450kg per day under optimal conditions.

    Hoshizaki flake ice has a light, soft texture that provides rapid and even cooling. It creates a consistent temperature environment while helping prevent freezer burn, making it an excellent choice for seafood displays, fish markets, supermarkets, food preparation, fresh food presentation and commercial hospitality applications.

    Important: This is a modular ice maker and requires a compatible ice storage bin. Storage bin is sold separately.

    Premium Hoshizaki Flake Ice

    The FM-480AKE-HC-SB produces high-quality flake ice with a light, soft texture designed to cool products quickly and evenly. Unlike hard cube ice, flake ice can be easily shaped and layered around food, providing greater contact with the product being chilled.

    This makes it particularly suitable for seafood displays, fish markets, supermarkets, delicatessens and fresh food counters, where both temperature control and presentation are important.

    Ideal for Seafood & Fresh Food Displays

    Flake ice can be spread, shaped and layered to create attractive refrigerated food displays while providing effective cooling across the product surface. It is particularly well suited to displaying fresh fish, seafood and other temperature-sensitive foods.

    The soft texture also makes it easy to prepare and reshape displays throughout the day, helping commercial operators maintain an attractive presentation during service.

    High-Volume Ice Production

    Production varies according to ambient air and incoming water temperatures:

    10°C Air / 10°C Water Approx. 450kg / 24 Hours
    21°C Air / 15°C Water Approx. 400kg / 24 Hours
    32°C Air / 21°C Water Approx. 340kg / 24 Hours

    Modular Design

    The Hoshizaki FM-480AKE-HC-SB is a modular ice maker, allowing the ice-making head to be paired with a suitable storage bin according to the required ice storage capacity and installation.

    Compatible Hoshizaki storage bin configurations include:

    • B-301SA – No top kit required
    • B-501SA – 8D top kit
    • B-801SA – 8D + 18D top kits
    • Double Stack B-801SA – 4DM

    Please note: Ice storage bin and applicable top kits are sold separately unless otherwise specified.

    Compact High-Output Design

    Despite its substantial commercial ice production capacity, the FM-480AKE-HC-SB measures only 560mm wide. Its modular configuration allows businesses to select a compatible storage solution while keeping the ice-making head relatively compact.

    R290 Natural Refrigerant

    The FM-480AKE-HC-SB uses R290 natural refrigerant. The air-cooled system is designed to operate in ambient temperatures ranging from 5°C to 40°C, making it suitable for demanding commercial applications when installed within the specified operating conditions.
