The Mobile Ice Plant is a self-contained, trailer-mounted, high volume ice production facility designed to meet the needs of humanitarian relief efforts or military operations in extreme environments.

  • Produces 20 tons of bagged ice per day
  • Completely self-contained: requires only fuel and water to operate
  • Capable of producing ice within 45 minutes of arrival
  • Evaporative condensing system ensures consistent operation in high heat
  • Simple to operate with automated system management and on-board diagnostics

Mobile Ice Plant

Producing fresh ice on site in a domestic disaster area or scorching desert operating base is a valuable capability by itself, but distributing loose bulk ice presents a daunting logistical challenge. The mobile ice plant eliminates this problem with a fully automated conveying and bagging system which seals fresh ice as it is made in volume-controlled bags for rapid, easy, and sanitary distribution.

Description
Mobile Ice PlantThe refrigeration system is made up of a compressor, evaporative condenser, high pressure receiver, evaporator plate compartment, and a recirculator. Anhydrous ammonia is used as a refrigerant and is circulated through the system components to produce the ice. Ice is produced in a two-cycle process.

The first cycle involves forming the ice onto vertical plates located in the evaporator compartment. After a preset time the system switches to the harvest cycle and the ice is removed from the plates and sent to the bagger.

These cycles are controlled by a state-of-the-art computer control system that not only runs the ice making and harvest cycles but also monitors and controls all aspects of the refrigeration system.
