Blizzard SN-25C 25kg Underbench Bullet Ice Maker | 10A Plug

[BLIZZARD_MSG]

The Blizzard SN-25C 25kg Underbench Commercial Bullet Ice Maker is an ultra-compact, heavy-duty ice-making machine engineered specifically for Australian cafes, cocktail bars, boutique hotel suites, restaurants, executive boardrooms, and catering service counters. Measuring a slim 375 mm Wide x 575 mm Deep x 762 mm High and weighing 39 kg, this space-efficient undercounter unit slides effortlessly beneath standard commercial bar counters and kitchen benches while producing up to 25kg of crystal-clear, high-density bullet ice every 24 hours. Engineered with an advanced inverted spray evaporator and an insulated injection tank, the SN-25C yields dense, slow-melting hollow bullet ice cubes (28mm ø x 40mm) designed to chill drinks rapidly. Fully WaterMark certified for legal connection to Australian municipal water supplies, it delivers efficient commercial performance with standard 10A plug-and-play convenience.

Why venue operators choose the Blizzard SN-25C:

• High-density bullet ice production (up to 25kg/24h) — high-efficiency commercial spray refrigeration system generates up to 25kg of clear, solid bullet ice per 24 hours to supply busy espresso bars, drink stations, and dining rooms.

• Specialised spray-type evaporator — upward spray system flushes away dissolved air and impurities during freezing, producing crystal-clear, hard-formed bullet ice that melts slower and chills drinks instantly.

• Ultra-compact 375mm underbench profile — narrow 375mm width and low 762mm height slide seamlessly beneath standard Australian undercounter cavities, conserving valuable bar-line floor space.

• Integrated insulated ice storage bin — thermal insulated internal storage chamber holds approximately 9kg to 15kg of ice (with an automated bin control sensor cut-off at approximately 6kg) to ensure ice is always ready for service without overflowing.

• Classic rounded bullet ice shape (28mm ø x 40mm) — cylindrical hollow-core design provides exceptional surface-area cooling for soft drinks, mixed spirits, iced lattes, and blended frappes without jamming drinkware or blenders.

• Full Australian WaterMark certification — independently tested and certified under the WaterMark scheme, guaranteeing full compliance with national AS/NZS plumbing codes and council health inspections.

• Commercial food-grade stainless steel cabinet — heavy-duty stainless steel exterior body resists corrosion, scuffs, and daily kitchen knocks while wiping down effortlessly.

• User-friendly external controls & front door access — features an accessible external power switch and a durable, counterbalanced single-hinged access door for swift ice retrieval during peak service rushes.

• Standard 10A plug-and-play installation — economical 300W power draw runs on standard Australian single-phase 220V–240V mains power with a factory-fitted 10 Amp plug, requiring no costly 15A electrical circuit installations.

Essential Water Filtration & Scheduled Maintenance

All commercial ice machines require clean, treated water and regular maintenance to maintain crystal-clear ice formation, rapid harvest cycles, and long-term evaporator health. In municipal water supplies across Australia, dissolved mineral salts and limescale will accumulate on the spray jets and evaporator fingers over time, leading to cloudy ice, misshapen bullets, extended freezing cycles, and premature compressor strain.

Recommended Water Filter System: To protect your investment and maintain warranty compliance, install an inline commercial water filter system. We recommend pairing this machine with the high-performance WFI37000 Commercial Water Filtration System.

Follow this essential 3-step preventative maintenance schedule:

1. Water Filter Cartridge Replacement (Every 6 Months): Replace the inline water filter cartridge bi-annually (or more frequently in hard-water regions) to protect spray jets, solenoid valves, and internal water lines from limescale accumulation and sediment.

2. Evaporator & Spray Jet De-scaling (Every 3 to 6 Months): Routinely de-scale the refrigeration evaporator fingers and spray injection nozzles using an approved food-grade commercial nickel-safe ice machine descaling solution to ensure clean cube formation and smooth harvest release.

3. Routine Bin & Line Sanitisation: Regularly wash and sanitise the internal water reservoir, spray curtain, and the insulated storage bin using an approved food-contact sanitiser to ensure strict Australian food hygiene compliance.

Plumbing, Operating & Service Notice

The Blizzard SN-25C requires connection to a cold potable mains water line terminating at an isolation tap (operating between 100 kPa and 500 kPa) and a compliant gravity floor drain with an approved physical air gap. Ensure the drainage line runs downhill without kinks or upward loops to allow meltwater to discharge freely from the storage bin. Maintain at least 50 mm to 100 mm of ventilation clearance around the cabinet to ensure adequate airflow for the refrigeration condenser. Always plug the machine directly into a dedicated 240V 10A wall outlet; do not operate the appliance using double adaptors, multi-plug power boards, or extension leads.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes bullet ice ideal for commercial drinks service?

Bullet ice features a smooth, cylindrical shape with a hollow internal core (28mm ø x 40mm). This hollow cavity significantly increases the surface area in contact with the beverage, allowing it to chill coffees, soft drinks, cocktails, and juices much faster than dense block cubes. Its smooth, rounded edges are also gentle on commercial blender blades for frappes and smoothies.

How does the spray evaporator system improve ice clarity?

Unlike paddle-style or paddle-wheel machines that freeze water from standing pools, the Blizzard SN-25C utilises an inverted spray evaporator system. Pressurised water is continuously sprayed upward onto refrigerated evaporator fingers. Pure water freezes first, while dissolved air, minerals, and micro-impurities wash away back into the sump, producing hard, clear, crystal-like bullet ice.

How does the automated bin control sensor work?

The SN-25C features an integrated thermal bin sensor set to approximately 6 kg. When ice accumulates and covers the sensor probe inside the insulated bin, the machine automatically pauses production to prevent overfilling. Once ice is scooped out for service and the sensor clears, the freezing cycle resumes automatically.

Why is an inline water filter (such as the WFI37000) strongly recommended?

Australian municipal water contains mineral ions, chlorine, and sediment. Over continuous cycles, minerals deposit onto the spray nozzles and refrigeration evaporator fingers, restricting water flow and causing cloudy, misshapen bullets. Installing the WFI37000 water filter removes impurities, inhibits scale buildup, and protects internal components to ensure reliable operation.

What electrical outlet is required?

The Blizzard SN-25C draws an energy-efficient 300W on standard Australian single-phase 220V–240V power. It is factory-fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp plug and lead, allowing immediate plug-and-play installation into any standard commercial power point without requiring 15A electrical alterations.
