About Wellcold Direct cooling Block Ice Machine:

WELLCOLD direct cooling ice block making system now insteads of traditional brine based system block ice machine. After investigating, studying and many years’ field trips around the world, we find that designing the new technical direct cooling block ice machine is quite popular among customers. They have a high requirement for block ice quality from the discussion with them.

So Wellcold direct cooling block ice machine is born at the right moment to meet the customers’ & markets’ demand. 

 

This innovative direct cooling way is called direct evaporated or direct cooling ice block machine. And it adopts aluminum freezing plates which completely conform to food standard. If the water supply is clean fresh water, then the block ice can be eaten directly, and of course it can also be used for foodstuffs cooling, fish cooling, etc. What’s more, it can shorten ice making time and ice harvesting time, save labor.

 

Wellcold block Ice machine principle:

Water will be added automatically to ice cans and directly exchange heat with refrigerant. After a certain ice making time, the water in the ice tank all becomes ice then the refrigeration system will change into ice doffing mode automatically. It doffs ice by fluorine gas and the ice blocks will fall down in 25 minutes.

 

Wellcold direct cooling Ice Block Machine features:

1. All-in-one refrigeration systems.

2. Special design evaporator aluminum plates conform to food standards, anti-rust and anti-corrosive.

3. Evaporated directly without salt water, clean and sanitary block ice is suitable for human consumption.

4. Doffing ice by hot fluorine gas is more energy-saving and reduces electricity consumption

5. The refrigerant can be used globally, comply with national and international standards.

6. Various production capacity from 1tons to 30tons per day with block ice weight of 5kg, 10kg, 15kg, 20kg, 25kg, 30kg, 50kg and 100kg.

7. World famous brand compressors (like Bitzer/Frascold/Refcomp/Hanbell) are choosed to offer abundant compressing power and guaranteed producing ice in the shortest period with less energy consumption

8. Module design, the whole ice making system consists of machine unit module, evaporator module, and cooling tower module, Convenient to transport.

9. Smaller installation space covering than traditional brine system.

10. Easier installation, can begin ice production as soon as connected to water and electricity.

11. Highly automatic design: automatic water adding, automatic ice making, automatic ice harvest.

12. Convenient operation with intelligent German SIEMENS PLC control system and touch screen.
