The American Chef ACIM-550-300NG is a stackable modular nugget ice machine engineered for high-volume commercial use in restaurants, bars, cafés, and foodservice operations that require reliable, soft nugget ice production. Delivering up to 550 lb (225 kg) of ice per 24 hours and paired with a matched 300 lb (136 kg) storage bin, it provides ample daily output and reserve capacity to handle drink service, food prep, and rush periods. The unit produces chewable nugget ice ideal for beverages and product displays, with a fast-start system that begins delivering ice shortly after startup. An air-cooled R290 refrigeration system eliminates the need for water-cooled plumbing while maintaining efficient performance, and the cabinet combines a durable SUS430 stainless steel exterior with a SUS304 stainless steel interior for long-lasting, easy-to-clean surfaces. High-density polyurethane foam insulation with CFC-free cyclopentane helps reduce heat gain and preserve ice quality in storage. Operating on 110 V / 60 Hz / single-phase power with a 12 A draw and 1180 W rating, the ACIM-550-300NG fits standard commercial electrical setups and is fully compliant with DOE, ETL, and NSF standards. Measuring 22 inches wide by 33.8 inches deep by 70.6 inches high and weighing 249 lb (113 kg), it offers a space-efficient footprint with the capacity and performance required in busy foodservice environments.
