This offer ends in:
The DIIB183010 is a drop-in ice storage bin rated for 29 kg capacity in bar and prep line installations. The unit houses a 340×660×280 mm insulated bowl beneath a 1.5 mm stainless steel work surface. Operators use it to keep ice close to point of service in beverage stations and cold prep zones.
Commercial Application
Drop-in bins eliminate walk-in trips during service. Ice sits directly below work height in a recessed compartment. Staff scoop from the bin without leaving the station.
The flat top provides additional work surface when not accessing ice. The centered drain tube connects to a waste line to channel melt without manual draining. Insulated walls reduce melt rate during peak periods.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the bowl and top?
A: The bowl, drain tube, and bottom are 1.0 mm 304 stainless steel. The flat top is 1.5 mm 304 stainless steel. All surfaces meet food-contact hygiene standards.
Q: What counter cut-out dimensions are required for installation?
A: The drop-in footprint is 760×460 mm. Verify your counter thickness and drain tube routing before cutting. Contact TurcoBazaar for a dimensioned installation drawing.
Q: Does the bin include a lid?
A: No lid is supplied. Operators typically leave drop-in bins open during service for fast scooping. A custom lid can be fabricated if required for overnight storage.
Q: How is melt water drained from the bin?
A: A centered 1-inch OD × 4-inch stainless steel drain tube connects to a waste line beneath the counter. Gravity drains melt water without manual intervention.
Q: What is the insulation method for the bin walls?
A: Walls are insulated to reduce thermal transfer from the surrounding counter. Specific insulation material is not published; contact the manufacturer for detailed construction data if third-party testing is required.
