Ice Making Pumps

Smooth, High-Volume Flow for Demanding Marine Applications

In marine environments where ice production is critical—whether for commercial fishing, food preservation, or onboard hospitality—reliable water circulation is essential. Oberdorfer Ice Making Pumps are engineered to deliver high-volume, non-pulsating flow, making them the preferred choice for marine ice machines and refrigeration systems. Built with corrosion-resistant materials and minimal moving parts, these pumps offer long-lasting performance with reduced maintenance.

Key Features of Oberdorfer Ice Making Pumps

Smooth, Non-Pulsating Flow

  • Centrifugal design ensures continuous, even water delivery—ideal for ice-making systems that require stable flow.
  • Reduces vibration and mechanical stress on connected equipment.

High-Volume Output

  • Capable of delivering large volumes of water efficiently, supporting high-capacity ice production.
  • Suitable for both freshwater and seawater applications.

Marine-Grade Bronze Construction

  • All wetted components are made from high-quality bronze for superior corrosion resistance.
  • Ideal for saltwater environments and harsh industrial solvents.

Minimal Moving Parts

  • Fewer wear components mean less maintenance and longer service intervals.
  • Simplified design reduces the risk of mechanical failure.

Self-Priming Options Available

  • Several models offer self-priming capability, allowing for flexible installation and quick startup.
  • Provides up to 20 feet of suction lift, ideal for below-deck or remote tank installations.
