Overview
The Hoshizaki F-1002MAJ is a commercial flake-ice machine head unit rated to produce up to 980 lb of ice in 24 hours at 70/50 F conditions, with a 758 lb AHRI-certified rating at 90/70 F. It is a slim, 22 inch wide, air-cooled modular unit meant to sit on a separate Hoshizaki storage bin.
Flake ice is soft and quick to chill, which is why Hoshizaki points this model at salad bars, seafood counters and food displays rather than drink service. Being a modular head, it needs to be paired with a compatible bin sold separately, and it must be hardwired on site since no cord or plug is included, so this is an installation project rather than a plug-in appliance.
- Up to 980 lb/24hr flake ice at 70/50 F conditions
- 758 lb AHRI-certified output at 90/70 F
- 22 inch wide, air-cooled, self-contained condenser
- R-404A refrigerant, 115v/60/1-ph, 15.2 amps
Who it's for
Commercial kitchens, seafood counters and food service operations that need continuous flaked ice production and already have or plan to add a matching storage bin. It is not a countertop or residential unit, and it is not suited to anyone without electrical hardwiring in place.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- High daily flake ice output for continuous food service use
- Advanced CleanCycle24 automated cleaning cycle
- Infrared bin sensor prevents overfilling
- Stainless steel finish rated NSF and UL
- Requires a separate storage bin, not included
- Must be hardwired on site, no cord or plug provided
- Output drops noticeably in hotter ambient conditions
Performance notes
The self-contained, air-cooled condenser produces up to 980 lb of flake ice per day under moderate conditions, with the AHRI-certified 758 lb figure reflecting hotter 90 F ambient and 70 F water conditions. The Advanced CleanCycle24 system and an infrared bin sensor are built to automate cleaning and stop overproduction once the bin is full.
