Generally speaking, the energy consumption of an ice maker is between1-3kW per hour. This range is calculated according to the energy consumption of most ice machines, and the specific energy consumption needs to be calculated according to the actual situation. The energy consumption of ice maker is related to many factors, including model, temperature and environment. The larger the model of ice maker, the higher the power consumption. For large ice makers, the energy consumption is usually higher.
The ambient temperature in which the ice maker operates will also affect the energy consumption. At higher ambient temperature, the ice maker needs more energy to reduce the ice temperature. According to the principle and production mode of evaporator, the ice maker produces different shapes of ice. People generally divide ice makers into particle ice makers, flake ice makers, plate ice makers, tube ice makers, shell ice makers and so on.
