Descriptions

Standalone 15-ton-per-day flake ice evaporator drum in SUS304 or SUS316L, for R404A, R507A, R448A or R717 ammonia systems. Supplied bare or fully assembled with gear motor, scraper set, water distributor and factory-set TXVs. Designed for fishing ports, fish processing, poultry plants and concrete cooling.

15 T/Day Flake Ice Evaporator Drum — Heavy-Duty Single Drum for Port, Processing and Industrial Cooling
This is a standalone flake ice evaporator drum rated at 15,000 kg of flake ice per 24 hours at -20 °C evaporating temperature, 25 °C ambient and 20 °C feed water. It is supplied as the freezing cylinder alone — you provide the condensing unit and refrigerant plant, we provide the drum, either bare or fully assembled with gear motor, scraper blades, water distributor and factory-set expansion valves. Standard build is SUS304; SUS316L is available for coastal and marine sites. Single-circuit and dual-circuit versions are both offered, and the drum can be configured for R717 ammonia as well as HFC refrigerants.

Core components for flake ice making

The flake ice evaporator serves as the core heat-exchange component of the ice-making unit. Refrigerant circulates within the cylindrical body to facilitate heat exchange, forming a uniform layer of ice on the inner wall, which is then continuously scraped off by a blade mechanism to produce flake ice. The unit features a stationary vertical design: the evaporator cylinder remains fixed while an internal scraper rotates along the inner wall to harvest the ice. This configuration minimizes wear and ensures a tight seal, effectively preventing refrigerant leakage.


Core Precision Spiral Ice Blade

Stainless steel precision spiral ice blade, scrapes ice evenly with less ice debris, wear-resistant and won't damage the evaporation tank, operates quietly, is durable, and saves energy.

Stable top and bottom base

The upper and lower bases of the evaporator are constructed from carbon steel, offering excellent value for money; the surface is treated for rust prevention to ensure durability, and the robust load-bearing capacity provides a stable structure for the equipment during operation.

Application Scenarios

Widely Used In Fields Such As Food Preservation,Beverage Cooling, And Industrial Cooling Port and harbour ice plants: continuous flake ice supply for landing, auction and vessel hold icing. Fish and shrimp processing: in-line icing at receiving, grading and dispatch. Poultry and meat processing: rapid carcass chilling and cold-chain packing. Concrete batching and mining: flake ice for mass-pour temperature control in hot climates. OEM plant builders: contractors who already own the compressor package and need a proven freezing cylinder at scale.

High-quality flake ice, highly efficient refrigeration

Ice flakes are available in thicknesses from 1.8 to 2.2 mm; the ice flakes have a large contact area, are dry and do not easily stick together or clump, resulting in rapid cooling and thorough mixing of materials. The ice flakes have rounded edges without sharp corners, preventing scratches or punctures to the materials being frozen during operation.

Advantages & Features:

High-Efficiency Heat Exchange Structure

Employs enhanced heat transfer tube bundles or plate-type evaporation designs to boost the heat exchange efficiency between the refrigerant and water, thereby shortening the ice-forming cycle.

A precise temperature control system ensures uniform ice flake thickness (typically 1–2 mm), producing dry, fluffy, "snow-like" ice flakes that offer rapid cooling and resist clumping.

Food-Grade Safety Materials

The evaporator's contact surfaces are integrally formed from 304 stainless steel, complying with international food hygiene standards (e.g., FDA, CE). This material is corrosion-resistant and easy to clean, preventing secondary

contamination of the ice flakes.

A modular design facilitates quick disassembly for maintenance, thereby minimizing equipment downtime.

Energy Efficiency and Stability

Integrates a high-efficiency compressor and an intelligent defrosting system, reducing energy consumption by up to 25% compared to traditional models, and is capable of sustaining continuous, high-intensity operation.

An adaptive load adjustment function dynamically regulates production capacity based on ambient temperature and ice demand, ensuring stable output within an operating environment ranging from -10°C to 45°C.

Application:

Food Processing: Used in stages such as meat slaughtering, seafood processing, and bakery cooling; direct contact between the ice flakes and food allows for rapid cooling to 0–4°C, extending shelf life and locking in freshness.

Commercial Cold Chain: Ideal for supermarket fresh food displays and central kitchen distribution centers; the ice flakes offer excellent coverage and breathability, helping to preserve the visual appeal and quality of the merchandise.

Industrial Cooling: In sectors such as chemicals and pharmaceuticals, it provides a continuous low-temperature medium for reaction vessels or production lines, preventing process disruptions caused by water temperature fluctuations.

Installation and handling notes
The drum ships on a steel transport frame; lift only by the four lugs, never by the shaft or pipe stubs.
Foundation must be level within 2 mm/m — drum run-out directly affects ice thickness uniformity and blade life.
Insulation is factory-applied; exposed pipework on site must be insulated by the installer.
Allow a minimum [800] mm service clearance on the scraper side for blade inspection and replacement.
For marine installations, specify 316L and stainless fasteners; carbon steel frames require a specified coating system.

FAQ

1.Can I customize the machine?

Yes. You can choose output, material, accessories brand, etc.

2.Are the prices on the website accurate?

No. Because the price of the machine is affected by many factors, the price of the website is not very accurate.

3.How do I get a more accurate price?

Tell the salesman your requirements and they will give you a more accurate price.

4.How long will it take to make the machines?

The production time required for machines of different output is different. Peak season requires longer production time.

5.Is there any guarantee for my payment?

In Alibaba, we paid the margin. This is to protect your rights. In addition, After you receive the goods, Alibaba will release your payment to us.

6.How do I receive the goods?

After we reach an agreement, I will entrust a freight forwarder to deliver the goods to your designated port. When the goods arrive at the port, you can go to the port to pick them up with the bill of lading.

Can I buy the drum without compressor and condenser? Yes — that is the standard configuration. The drum is supplied as a standalone component with defined capacity, connection sizes and mounting interface.

Why one large drum instead of two smaller ones? A single 15 t/day drum means fewer moving parts, one drive, one water circuit and lower maintenance. If your plant cannot tolerate downtime, we also supply tandem dual-drum configurations — ask for the redundancy option.
