Direct Cooling Block Ice Machine

Energy consumption ≈ 60 kWh per ton (baseline: 32°C ambient, 25°C feed water), eliminating the brine circuit entirely.

Freezing cycle 9 hours under the same baseline — 3 hours shorter than conventional brine tanks (12 hours).

6063-T5 aluminium evaporator plates (thermal conductivity 218 W/m·K, ~3.2× that of carbon steel) exchange heat directly with water, with no secondary refrigerant.
