NEW!!! Turbo Modular Ice Maker

August 17, 2011 by Doug Carpenter

Vogt Ice has engineered a new approach to producing fragmented ice. The new Modular Fragmented Ice System features increased flexibility for customers while retaining the key operational and efficiency advantages that have been the trademark of the Turbo fragmented ice technology developed and continuously improved for over 50 years now.

Features

  • 10 ton MCL or 20 ton MHG low side modules
  • Interconnecting configuration
  • Modular design offers flexibility in location
  • Lead time dramatically reduced
  • Lower cost per ton of ice

Benefits

  • Best match to capacity needs
  • Ease of capacity expansion
  • Greater options of ice maker location
  • Better suited for time sensitive projects
  • Cost sensitive solution

Example: For the following conditions the actual capacity for the ice generator would be:

Desired Ice thickness: 1/4” (6mm)

Ice Capacity (from Table) = 25 U.S. Tons (23 Metric Tons) per 24 hours

Entering Water Temperature (EWT) = 80 degrees F (26.7 degrees C)

Correction factor for EWT from Table = 0.896

Ice Capacity Corrected = 0.896* Ice Capacity at 60 degrees F (15.5 degree C) 0.896* 25 U.S. Tons = 22.4 U.S. Tons 0.896* 23 Metric Tons = 20.3 Metric Tons

VT Series

July 13, 2011 by Doug Carpenter

Industrial Ice Machines

The VT is an economical and uncomplicated industrial ice machine and is best for users that require a lot of volume such as grocery stores, hotels, farming, seafood and poultry packers and processors.

This ice machine provides maximum production due to its double surface freezing. Because there are no moving parts, maintenance is low.

A Programmable Logix Controller is available for all of the models. This device ensures dependable and reliable ice operation. The machine is durable, low maintenance and easy to clean.

 

VT Series Ice Machine Features:

  • 4,000 to 10,000 lbs of “Cracked Ice” per day
  • R-404a Refrigerant
  • Highly efficient Copeland discus compressor
  • All stainless welded construction
  • Hot gas defrost for rapid harvest and quick recovery
  • Double Walled vertical tube evaporator for maximum efficiency & production
  • Low maintenance cutter bearings
  • Harvest hold for definite defrost in varying ambient temperatures

Turbo Spacesaver 2000 and 4000

March 27, 2011 by Doug Carpenter

TURBO Refrigerating’s Spacesaver model ice machines offer numerous features for a variety of uses. The spacesaver models can meet the needs of hotels/motels, restaurants, hospitals and many other types of institutions that call for high volume, nugget ice harvested in a short amount of time. Spacesavers deliver dry, hard fragmentary ice that does not fuse together. The simple timer control lets you make the size of ice you need… 1/8″ to 3/4″ thickness. In addition, the ice sizer is adjustable to fine, medium or coarse, making available a large variety of ice from any Spacesaver model in the line. The Spacesaver models offer numerous other features and benefits including:

TURBO Spacesavers set the trend for fragmentary ice. Nugget ice is ideal for table service, mixed drinks, packaged ice sales.

High volume, hard ice production-automatically controlled from a single timer operation.

Compact size that fits virtually anywhere. Available with or without companion ice storage bins. TURBO heavy-duty ice machines deliver diamond-hard, super-cold long lasting ice.

Big capacity…TURBO Spacesavers can produce 2,000 lbs or 4,000 lbs of ice each 24 hours, even in 90 ƒ room temperatures and at 70 ƒ water input.

TURBO ice can be more compactly stored and is handled with great ease, has minimum loss from melting, makes table service easier and faster, cools drinks faster and longer…gives exact control over ice-to-drink ratio.

The simple, easy-to-maintain ice-making system in the Spacesaver requires only five moving parts. This keeps maintenance costs at an extremely low level and helps provide a longer, low maintenance life for the unit.

The complete harvest is normally accomplished in less than two minutes. No artificial heat to melt the ice is applied. No liquid touches the ice. Ice is harvested hard, dry, ready to use, with no slush.

The Spacesaver unit operates at peak efficiency, without complicated or recurring adjustments. Simplicity of design and operation and stainless steel parts help eliminate major problems. Routine maintenance can be performed without special skills. The self-contained units are completed integrated, wired, charged with refrigerant and carefully shop-tested.

Turbo TIG and TIGAR Series Ice Generators

March 27, 2011 by Doug Carpenter

Workhorses. TURBO has designed two tough thoroughbreds. The TIG(freon) and TIGAR(ammonia) Ice Generators. We’ve literally re-designed the original ice generator from the inside out, for the most durable, reliable and flexible ice producer that users have ever seen. Equipment that makes the ice with the high I.Q. The ice with the high internal quality. Clear and hard ice. Ice that lasts. But what’s really efficient about the TIG and TIGAR units is how hard they work. They produce their rated capacities while operating at peak efficiency. Fully automatic, using no moving parts for ice generation. You’ll find hot gas ice harvesting values with all the units.

You’ll discover another important benefit in the end product. You get a minimum of ice fines and snow. And remaining fines and snow melt to reduce plate water temperature, improving ice productions. It’s the kind of craftsmanship and engineering you’ve grown to expect from those who know refrigeration and ice generation the very best.

Combine all these features with a proven plate ice making design that’s been in use for over 25 years, now available in self-contained and remote suits, and you’ll quickly see why they’re becoming the popular choice for industry. Easy to maintain, energy efficient, plates and cabinets of stainless steel construction.

Consider the applications where they have been proven successful. You’ll find them hard at work in poultry, produce and seafood operations, anywhere you find food processing. Industrial uses, too, from chemicals, textiles, dye-making to just about anywhere cooling is required to produce a finished product.

Turbo C-Line Ice Generators

March 27, 2011 by Doug Carpenter

 1 to 60 TONS SELF-CONTAINED AND REMOTE UNITS AMMONIA AND FREON MODELS Equipment that produces ice with the high I.Q. Ice with Internal Quality. Clear and hard ice. Ice that lasts. Ice that’s easy to handle.

TURBO GIVES YOU DRY, HARD ICE AT LOW COST THAT CHILLS QUICKER, LASTS LONGER.

If you use ice in your business to protect or improve your product or service, then you should know how important it is to use the right kind of ice.

All ice is not the same, nor does it protect and cool the same, or cost the same. TURBO Ice Makers are a triumph of Ice Engineering and deliver a new and better kind of hard ice at a substantially lower cost.
