The North Star Ice Delivery Systems
North Star rectangular
storage bins and rakes are ideal for operations that require large
storage capacities and where ice consumption varies greatly from day to
day. Rectangular bins hold between 100 and 250 tons of ice and offer
the greatest capacity per unit of floor area.
Product Features
- North Star rake systems are built with
heavy-duty industrial grade components for continuous operation, long
life and low maintenance.
- North Star’s patented ice rake
levels the ice as it is produced by the ice maker, then sweeps it out
of the bin during the discharge cycle.
- The hoist automatically adjusts the height of the rake to level the ice in the bin.
- The rectangular rake features a
motorized bin door that opens automatically to discharge ice on
demand. Twin screws carry the ice to the delivery system.
- The triangular rakes features a
single screw that discharges the ice at an elevated point directly into
totes or carts, or to a screw conveyor or pneumatic delivery system.
- Standard ice bin components are hot-dipped galvanized. Stainless steel options are also available
- Control panels can be designed to
accommodate dual rake systems, multiple ice makers or other design
options. The panel integrates starter and logic controls for the ice
maker, rake and delivery system. Other components can be added as
well.
- Control panels are also available with optional programmable logic controller and operator interface panel.
- All systems include state-of -the-art safety and protection features.
- All systems can be equipped with either a pneumatic delivery system or screw conveyor.
