The Serv-Ware SWM22-550CN Nugget Ice Machine
The Serv-Ware SWM22-550CN is a wide-head, air-cooled ice machine that turns out up to 550 pounds of chewy nugget ice every 24 hours, enough to keep a busy bar, restaurant, or cafe stocked through peak service. The modular head sits on a separate storage bin, sold on its own, so you size ice storage to the room rather than paying for capacity you do not need. As a modular ice machine head, it pairs with a Serv-Ware ice storage bin, which is sold separately.
High-Volume Nugget Ice
Nugget ice is the soft, chewable cube that guests scoop straight from the cup, and the SWM22-550CN makes it by the bin-load. The air-cooled refrigeration system produces up to 550 pounds in a day, so a fountain station or blended-drink line does not run dry mid-rush. An automatic ice-making cycle runs the machine hands-free, and a bin-full sensor shuts production down once storage is topped off, so you are not wasting energy or overflowing the bin.
Wide-Head Modular Design
The wide head is built to drop onto a separately sold storage bin, which lets you match ice storage to demand and swap either component without replacing the whole unit. If volume climbs, you keep the head and move to a larger bin. Adjustable front leveling legs take the guesswork out of setting the machine on an uneven kitchen floor.
Stainless Build and Easy Service
The exterior cabinet is stainless steel, so it shrugs off the splashes and wipe-downs that come with a wet ice station and holds its finish far better than a painted panel that chips over time. Serv-Ware lays the components out for front access, so a tech can reach the condenser and internals without pulling the machine away from the wall. Integrated electronic controls with status indicators tell you at a glance whether the unit is making ice or sitting full.
Efficient R290 Cooling
The SWM22-550CN runs on R290, a low-impact natural refrigerant, and plugs into a standard 115 volt outlet, so setup does not require special electrical wiring. Air-cooled operation means no water lines for the condenser, just a clear path for intake and exhaust. Smart LED interior lighting with an included remote rounds out the package.
