ITV MEDIKAL 90C IQ healthcare ice maker – 94 kg/24 h

ITV MEDIKAL 90C IQ – granular ice for healthcare facilities

ITV MEDIKAL 90C IQ is a compact granular ice maker for hospitals, clinics, rehabilitation and physiotherapy facilities that require additional hygiene features around ice production and storage. The white cabinet combines ice production, a 20 kg integrated storage bin, PureZone and a drain pump, keeping a working ice reserve at the collection point.

Choose this model for higher ice demand: it replenishes ice faster than MEDIKAL 50C IQ while retaining the same cabinet width, depth and storage capacity. Rated output is 94 kg/24 h at +21 °C ambient and +15 °C inlet water. Warmer conditions reduce actual production, so allow for the daily workload and peak collection periods.

What type of ice does it make?

MEDIKAL produces fine, dry granular ice with approximately 20% residual water content. The small pieces fit around the object being cooled and can be portioned with a scoop. Use within a healthcare facility should follow its own operating and hygiene procedures.

What distinguishes MEDIKAL from a standard IQ machine?

• PureZone with UV light and ozone. The system treats air circulating inside the machine and helps limit microorganism growth on the components it reaches. It provides an additional hygiene measure around ice production and storage.
• Door safety system. Opening the door automatically switches off the PureZone disinfection system.
• Built-in bacterial filter and drain pump. Both are included in the offered 50440UD configuration; no separate pump option is needed.
• White-painted AISI 304 stainless-steel cabinet. The light finish suits healthcare interiors, while the STIF frame is supported by four steel columns.
• Water collection tray and scoop holder. The impact-resistant ABS tray helps contain drips and provides a dedicated place for the scoop.

Controls and service access

The LED display has touch on/off and cleaning controls, with visual indications for storage, cleaning and faults. In cleaning mode, refrigeration stops while water and the specified descaling product circulate through the system. PureZone complements regular physical cleaning, descaling and the facility’s hygiene procedures.

The axial production system uses a surface-treated stainless-steel auger. EASI construction allows individual panels to be removed for component access during servicing. Front SFVS ventilation supports built-in installation within the manual’s requirements; air openings must remain unobstructed.

Choosing the configuration and accessories

Standard model 50440UD is air-cooled and includes PureZone, a bacterial filter and a drain pump. Adjustable feet, a scoop, inlet hose and drain hose are also supplied.

1. Particle filter 7499. The supplier specifies particle filtration as essential to protect the ICE QUEEN evaporator. Select a new 5 µm filter, or “A suitable particle filter is already installed” when the supply already has the required protection. The built-in bacterial filter does not replace this mechanical filtration stage.
2. Replacement cartridge 1045. An optional spare element for particle filter 7499. This is a replacement cartridge, not a complete filter housing. Mechanical filtration does not soften water.

Select filtration by the ice-maker model and daily output. Hard water can require more frequent replacement of water-treatment elements; follow the installed filter’s instructions and monitor the system.

Installation space and choosing between models

With the supplied feet, installed height adjusts from 889 to 939 mm; cabinet height without feet is 784 mm. Width and depth are 465 x 595 mm. When planning an undercounter location, allow for the height with feet, ventilation, servicing access and hose connections. Connect to potable cold water, drainage and electricity as instructed.

For lower daily demand, compare MEDIKAL 50C IQ. Both have the same storage bin, so the higher-output model replenishes the reserve faster rather than storing more ice at once.
