Construction Features

Patented Construction Features
All steel construction with no fasteners, welding, or adhesives. The offset seams are precision machine formed, resulting in water-tight lock-form seams that create a stronger and more durable unit. This increases longevity by reducing moisture penetration into the insulation.
Limited Maintenance
Only requires electrical and a cell signal to operate, few moving parts, and an automatic defrost system.
High R-Values
Increased insulation to reduce heat infiltration into the unit - resulting in consistent and optimal temperatures of 16°F - 24°F. There’s 2.5” of high-performance, eco-friendly, insulation in the ceiling and walls, and 3” of insulation in the floor.
Rust Resistant
The exterior of the ice vending machine is finished with a two-part primer/top coat all-weather paint to provide superior resistance to humidity, corrosion, and other weather conditions.
Premium Load Cells
Load cells are located in the feet of the machine to accurately measure the weight and determine how many bags of packaged ice were removed.

Door Features

High-Impact Breaker Strip
High-impact breaker strip, located around the perimeter of the door jamb, durable enough to withstand excessive wear and tear and provide a thermal break between the machine interior and exterior.
Enhanced Door Frames
The door frame is a combination of both rigid and flexible PVC, which provides better protection against dirt and water in the field and foam exposure during the manufacturing process.
Inset Doors
The 2" inset doors provide greater insulation, reduce condensation, and improves the performance of machine.
Rain Shield
All doors contain a rain shield to divert water from dripping onto the doors or into the unit.
Steel Doors with Premium Paint
Galvanized steel doors top coated with a premium exterior grade white paint, which provides resistance to scratches, scuffs, dents, and protection from the outside elements.
Spring-Assisted Hinges
The hinges are adjustable to ensure a lifetime of level, and solid sealing doors. Additionally, the springs help the door close securely and avoid accidentally being left open.
Chrome-Finish Hardware
All hardware, including hinges and handles, have a chrome-finish to provide greater, strength durability, resistance to corrosion, and aesthetics.
Large Door Openings
Oversized door openings for increased view and accessibility of the ice, and ease of merchandising during restock.
Anti-Theft Lock
Self-locking electro-magnetic lock, with 600lbs of force, to help prevent theft.

Refrigeration Features

Serviceability
The drop-down evaporator allows for easier troubleshooting, maintenance, and servicing.
Illuminated Full Top and Compressor Cover
A compressor cover and illuminated full top are standard to attract customers' attention and provide air flow for better cooling of the condenser and compressor. It's also a layer of protection from harmful foreign objects.
Intelligent Electronic Controls
Electronic controls feature a digital display, factory preset advanced custom settings, and built-in intelligence to ensure your ice vending machine will consistently operate at the optimal settings for your environmental needs.

Electronic Features

Credit Card Reader
Integrated credit card reader and cellular communications for 24/7, unattended packaged ice vending and remote monitoring.

Interior Features

High-End Interior Finish
Bright white interior finish.
Interior Lighting
Standard with energy efficient LED lighting to help showcase the ice.

Defrost Systems Available

All refrigerated units require a defrost system – either manual or automatic. Without one, even under proper operation, frost would continuously build up inside the unit. Frost is caused from moisture in the air, from either the door opening or from the ice, coming in contact with the cold surfaces inside the ice merchandiser and freezing. Leer offers merchandisers with two different defrost methods.
Option 1: Automatic Defrost Units
Option 2: Cold Wall Manual Defrost Units.

Refrigerants Available

Technology improvements and environmental awareness have driven refrigerant transitions every 10-15 years. Our last transition was in 2007. Technology and global environmental awareness have enabled the introduction of a much improved refrigerant in 2020.
