Flake ice production system for direct ammonia refrigeration
When processing industries need reliable, hygienic, and environmentally friendly ice production, traditional flake ice systems often fall short in efficiency and ecological impact. There is a demand for a solution that meets strict hygienic standards while also addressing sustainability concerns.

Produce hygienic flake ice with natural refrigerants
The MAJA RVH-NH3 from Marel is a flake ice production system designed to operate with direct ammonia refrigeration units, ensuring environmentally sustainable and hygienic ice production. This system uses natural refrigerant R717 (ammonia), characterized by zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and zero global warming potential (GWP). It features dual rotating evaporator units for high operational safety and energy-efficient output. The system includes a Control Panel Touch for easy operation, a timer function for programmable cycles, and an optional self-cleaning system. Key hygienic features include a removable water tank for thorough cleaning and automatic water pipe rinsing. Ideal for industries requiring safe and eco-friendly ice production, such as food processing.
