Commercial Soft Serve Output
The SIHAO ZM-A168 is a compressor-based soft serve machine rated at 18 litres per hour. It targets cafes, restaurants and snack shops that need continuous high-volume production of gelato, sorbet or frozen yogurt. Its 19-quart total capacity supports extended service periods without frequent refilling. The unit weighs 152.11 lb and requires a permanent countertop location.
Dual Hoppers & Adjustable Hardness
Two 3-litre hoppers feed separate freezing cylinders, enabling two distinct single flavours plus a blended third option. Operators can dial hardness on the LCD panel to match product style, while the detachable drip tray and clear cover simplify sanitation between batches. A branded 1200W compressor drives rapid freeze-down and consistent texture during peak demand. Four rubber feet stabilise the 22.6 by 16.7 by 30 inch frame.
R22/R410a Refrigerant & Power Draw
The system uses R22 or R410a refrigerant, which limits servicing to technicians certified for those specific gases. Its 1200W corded-electric demand requires a dedicated circuit rated for the load; no alternative voltage or plug configuration is mentioned. Physical footprint of 550 by 420 by 760 mm restricts placement to counters that can bear 69 kg and accommodate the full depth. No wireless or remote monitoring capability is included.

Questions about this item
How often should the food-grade cylinders and mixing hoppers be cleaned to maintain hygiene?
The food-grade cylinders and clear cover allow easy monitoring, and the detachable drip tray simplifies daily cleanup for commercial use.
What limits continuous output during peak hours?
The 1200 W branded compressor drives two 3 L hoppers to deliver 18 L per hour; sustained runs are capped by that freezing capacity.
How loud and hot does the unit get when running all day?
Low-noise operation is specified; the four rubber feet dampen vibration, and exhaust heat is vented from the rear.
