Manitowoc D570 Ice Storage Bin 195kg Capacity

The Manitowoc D570 is a large-capacity ice storage bin designed to work alongside compatible Manitowoc ice machines. Its role is straightforward: to hold a substantial reserve of freshly made ice and keep it in good condition until it is needed for service. The bin does not produce ice itself — it is a holding and dispensing unit that sits beneath or alongside the ice machine as part of a complete ice station.

In busy commercial environments, the ability to carry a significant ice reserve matters considerably. High-footfall bars, hotel beverage stations, and busy kitchen pass areas all experience periods of concentrated demand where draw-off rates can quickly outpace machine production. A bin of this capacity helps to buffer that gap, meaning service continues without interruption even during peak periods. The insulated construction slows ice melt without requiring a separate power connection, which keeps running costs low and installation straightforward.

Practical advantages of the D570 for day-to-day operation include:

• Insulated door and lining reduces melt rate, preserving ice through quieter periods
• One-handed door operation makes access practical during busy service
• Stainless steel construction supports thorough cleaning and meets commercial hygiene standards
• No electrical connection required for the bin itself, simplifying installation
• Compatible with a defined range of Manitowoc ice machine models, ensuring correct fit and drainage alignment

The bin requires no power supply of its own, but correct installation alongside the ice machine is important — drainage, levelling, and adequate clearance for the machine mounted above all need to be considered at the planning stage. At 67kg the unit has a solid, commercial-grade build and will need appropriate positioning before the ice machine is installed on top. It is worth confirming compatibility with your specific Manitowoc machine model before ordering.

The D570 is well suited to high-volume bars, hotels, catering operations, and any site where consistent ice availability is critical to service. For sites with more modest requirements, smaller-capacity bins are available. Equally, very high-volume operations running multiple ice machines may benefit from reviewing larger bin options.

If you are unsure which bin capacity or machine pairing suits your site, our team is happy to talk through your requirements before you commit to an order.
