Manitowoc UFP0200A 257 lb Flake Ice Machine with 50 lb Storage Bin, Air-Cooled, R290 Refrigerant

The Manitowoc UFP0200A is the narrow-footprint model of the UFP flake ice pair, built for operations that need a dedicated flake supply right beside the display case instead of hauling ice across the kitchen. It produces up to 257 lb of flake ice per 24 hours at 70°F air and 50°F water and keeps a 50 lb working reserve in the bin below, enough to rebed a salad bar or seafood case and keep cold therapy coolers filled through a full day. Flake is presentation and therapy ice rather than beverage ice; if your operation mostly scoops for drinks, a nugget machine is the better format, and if you need more daily flake than this cabinet freezes, the wider UFP0350A makes up to 398 lb per day. Plan on a standard 115V circuit, a 3/8 in. water line, and a drain; the machine arrives pre-wired with a 6 ft cord and NEMA 5-15P plug and needs only 2 in. of side clearance.

Flake Ice Maker and 50 lb Storage Bin in One 19.69 In. Wide Cabinet

The cabinet measures 19.69 in. wide by 25.98 in. deep by 37.50 in. tall on 6 in. bin legs that adjust from 4.50 in. to 6.00 in., so you can level the machine on a real kitchen floor instead of shimming it. Ice maker and bin share one stainless steel housing, which spares you the job of matching a separate head to a separate bin and keeps the whole installation under 20 in. of line space. The easy-access door slides up and out of the way, so staff can work the included ice scoop with one hand while the other steadies a pan.

Small Hard Flake Ice for Food Display, Salad Bars, and Cold Therapy

Flake ice is small hard bits of ice ideally suited to presentation applications, and Manitowoc points this machine squarely at food display, salad bars, and cold therapy and healthcare work. A supply that lives at the point of use means the produce case gets fresh flake at open and the therapy room refills between sessions without anyone leaving the station. The bin holds 50 lb by application capacity, with a 40 lb rating under the 2017 AHRI measurement and 1.70 cu ft of bin volume under the 2018 AHRI standard, and the machine rebuilds the reserve continuously as staff scoop it down.

High-Load Maintenance-Free Bearings and R290 Refrigerant

Flake machines run long duty cycles, so Manitowoc fits high-load maintenance-free bearings for enhanced reliability rather than bearings that go on a lubrication schedule. The refrigeration side pairs a 1/4 HP compressor with R290 refrigerant, which Manitowoc notes is environmentally friendly with less ozone depletion compared to R404. Efficiency comes in at 5.31 kWh and 12 gal of potable water per 100 lb of ice at the 90°F air and 70°F water rating point, numbers that matter when a machine runs around the clock.

Front-to-Back Airflow with 2 In. Side Clearance

The air-cooled, self-contained condenser pulls air in at the front of the cabinet and discharges it out the back, so the sides need just 2 in. of clearance while the front and back need 8 in. Operating limits run from 50°F to 110°F ambient and 37°F to 90°F incoming water, with 14 psi to 80 psi supply pressure, so the machine holds spec in a warm back-of-house corner as well as an air-conditioned service area. Total ampacity is 5.5 amps on a 115/60/1 circuit with a 15 amp maximum fuse, and HACR-type circuit breakers can be used in place of fuses.
