Scotsman NUL 150 AS OX Large Dice Ice Machine

Specifications from the Moffat Australia NUL 150 AS OX spec sheet.

The Scotsman NUL 150 AS OX is a self contained undercounter ice maker that makes up to 70kg of large dice cubes a day at 21°C, or 50kg at 32°C, into a 20kg built in bin. It has the XSafe natural sanitation system, plugs into a standard 10A power point, drains by gravity and sells for $3,580 ex GST. Scotsman ice makers are distributed and serviced in Australia by Moffat, with a 3 year parts and labour warranty.

Best for: bars, clubs and restaurants pouring spirits and cocktails that want a bigger, slower melting dice cube, using around 45 to 70kg of ice a day.

NUL 150 AS OX overview

The NUL 150 AS OX is the large dice version of the NU 150 AS OX. Same cabinet, same 20kg bin and same price, and it makes 70kg a day against 68kg. The NUH 150 AS OX is the half dice version.

It is the only large dice machine in the self contained NU range. If you need more ice and are happy with the standard dice cube, the NU 227 AS OX makes up to 95kg a day into a 37kg bin, 650mm wide.

How the NUL 150 AS OX makes ice

The NUL 150 AS OX uses Scotsman's vertical evaporator spray system. Water sprays onto a vertical evaporator grid and freezes into individual large dice cubes, which drop into the bin at the end of each cycle.

Each cube is a 15g large dice cube, 28 x 22 x 28mm. A bigger cube melts slower, so it suits spirits and cocktails in a standard glass where you don't want the drink watered down. Agion Technology in the machine resists the growth of microbes and the development of odours.

XSafe puts an LED UV light in the bin. The light turns the air in the bin ozone rich, and that air works its way through the ice and the whole bin, killing 99% of known viruses and bacteria and cutting down mould, mildew, yeast and slime. The ozone stays in the air, not the water, so there is no taint in the ice. It makes no heat and no noise, and has no moving parts. Read more in our XSafe guide.

Which dice ice maker do I need?

All four are self contained Scotsman NU ice makers with a built in bin, XSafe, gravity drain, 10A plug in and 3 year Moffat warranty. The difference is cube, output, bin size and footprint.

Simple to run

One touch cleaning runs the clean cycle at the press of a button, which saves time and labour. A light on the front panel comes on if the machine is due for routine maintenance, and the condenser air filter is easy to get to from the front. The bin door lifts and slides away out of the way to get to the ice.

Warranty and support

3 year parts and labour warranty, backed by Moffat Australia with on site service Australia wide. It covers faults in parts and workmanship under normal commercial use. Routine cleaning, descaling and filter maintenance aren't covered. See all Scotsman ice makers or read our warranty page.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the NUL 150 AS OX, NU 150 AS OX and NUH 150 AS OX?
Same machine, same price, same 20kg bin. The difference is the cube. The NUL 150 AS OX makes a 15g large dice cube, 28 x 22 x 28mm, which melts slower in a drink. The NU 150 AS OX makes a 10g dice cube, 22mm each way, the all round cube. The NUH 150 AS OX makes a 6g half dice cube, 10 x 22 x 28mm, which packs tight into a glass. The NUL and NUH make 70kg a day at 21°C, the NU 68kg.

What is large dice ice good for?
Spirits, cocktails and drinks served in a standard glass. The 15g cube is bigger than a standard 10g dice, so it melts slower and waters the drink down less.

How much ice does the NUL 150 AS OX make?
Up to 70kg a day at 21°C air with 10°C water, and 50kg a day at 32°C air with 21°C water. Use the 32°C figure if your kitchen runs hot in summer. The 20kg bin refills as you use it.

Will the NUL 150 AS OX fit under my bench?
At 770mm high on its feet, 600mm wide and 610mm deep it fits under a standard 900mm bench. Leave 100mm clear at the back and 150mm at both sides so the machine can breathe. It runs in air temperatures from 10°C to 43°C.

Do I need a plumber or electrician to install the NUL 150 AS OX?
No. It plugs into a standard 10A power point and connects to a cold water tap with the supplied water hose. The supplied drain hose runs to a floor waste or drain.

What water and drain connection does the NUL 150 AS OX need?
A ¾ inch cold water connection with water between 5°C and 38°C at 100 to 500kPa. The drain is gravity, so the floor waste or drain has to sit lower than the machine's ¾ inch drain outlet.

What is XSafe?
XSafe is Scotsman's natural sanitation system. An LED UV light in the bin makes the air ozone rich, and that air kills 99% of known viruses and bacteria through the ice and bin. It doesn't filter your water or stop scale, so you still need filtered water, descaling and a full bin clean from time to time. Our XSafe guide covers it in full.

How do I look after the NUL 150 AS OX?
Run the one touch clean cycle regularly and wash the condenser air filter, more often in a greasy or dusty kitchen. A light on the front panel comes on if the machine is due for routine maintenance. Have a technician replace the XSafe LED every 12 months so it stays covered by the warranty. Regular cleaning and descaling are part of normal maintenance and aren't covered by warranty.

What comes with the NUL 150 AS OX?
The machine comes with a removable air filter, an ice scoop, a water hose and a drain hose. A leg kit is available as an optional extra.

Do you have scratch and dent NUL 150 AS OX machines?
Sometimes. Moffat occasionally has units with freight damage or ex-display stock at a lower price. It comes down to availability, so ask us if you want one.
