Scotsman 486kg Modular Scale Ice Maker - MAR 79 Split CO2
The Scotsman MAR 79 Split CO2 is a high-capacity, environmentally advanced modular scale ice maker engineered for large-scale commercial and industrial applications where extremely dry, high-quality ice is essential. Producing 486kg of scale ice per day, this compact head-only split unit delivers exceptionally thin scale ice at 1–2mm thickness with an outstanding residual water content of just 2% — one of the driest ice formats available, making it particularly well suited to food processing, fisheries, seafood preservation, produce chilling, and industrial cooling applications.
As an EcoX model, the MAR 79 Split CO2 operates on R744 carbon dioxide refrigerant — a natural refrigerant with a global warming potential of just 1, representing the most environmentally responsible choice in commercial ice making. Supplied as an evaporator-only split unit requiring connection to a remote condensing unit, it offers maximum installation flexibility for sites where heat load, noise, or spatial constraints are a priority.
The unit features an AISI 304 stainless steel evaporating drum and ice scraper blade, delivering exceptional hygiene and long-term durability in demanding commercial and industrial environments. A drive motor and gear reducer with V-Belt drive ensure robust, reliable mechanical performance cycle after cycle. Agion antimicrobial technology actively resists microbial growth and odour development for consistently pure, hygienic ice, and the water in / ice out concept minimises excess energy, water, and time wastage throughout production.
Plug-and-work technology makes commissioning straightforward, while simple, reliable electromechanical controls — including an on/off manual switch and a weekly programmable timer — keep daily operation flexible and intuitive. A low-water sensor provides added machine protection, and the resistant stainless steel exterior ensures durability across the full range of commercial and industrial settings.
Standard inclusions are a removable water hose and drain hose.
