Brema Drain Pump is Brema's DP solution for ice makers that cannot be conveniently connected to a floor drain below the machine. The integrated pump moves drain water to a more practical discharge point and gives more freedom when planning a bar, kitchen or buffet area.
Brema presents it as its proprietary DP System technology and design: the pump is installed inside the machine, the standard water and drain connection points remain unchanged, and the ice maker's footprint does not increase.
INSTALLATION LOCATION FREEDOM
The machine can be repositioned within the same bar or kitchen even after commissioning when workflow requirements change. The integrated pump drains water within the technical limits without tying the machine to a lower floor drain.
HYGIENIC DRAINAGE
Less stagnant water in the drain pipe and lower risk of ice contamination in the storage bin.
REDUCED INSTALLATION TIME
The DP solution can be connected to floor, wall, pipe or siphon drains, making connection work easier for the installation technician.
PLUG & PLAY CONNECTION
When the drain point position or height complicates installation, Brema DP System works as a simple and effective Plug & Play solution.
POWER BLACKOUTS
The DP system collects meltwater and automatically disposes of it when power is restored, regardless of the machine ON/OFF switch position.
FEWER SCALE ISSUES
Instead of a float switch, Brema uses an air-pressure sensor separated from the hydraulic system, reducing mineral buildup and sensor-jamming risks.
In its official description, Brema presents the DP System as a reliable pressurized drainage solution for ice makers. Water level is controlled without a float switch, and the sensor is not directly exposed to mineral buildup in the drain water. This matters in professional kitchens and bars where equipment runs every day and unplanned downtime disrupts work.
| Lift height | Up to 1.5 m |
| Active pumping distance | Up to 4 m |
| Distance with inclined pipe | Up to 15 m |
| Drain types | Floor, wall, pipe or siphon drain |
| Construction | Integrated into the ice maker cabinet; no additional footprint |
| Connection points | Standard water and drain connection points remain unchanged |
| Control | Autonomous electrical circuit and level / air-pressure sensor |
| Scale resistance | No float switch; sensor separated from the hydraulic system |
| Power failure | The pump collects meltwater and automatically disposes of it when power is restored |
The DP version is worth choosing when the ice maker must stand under a counter, on an island, against a wall or in another position where traditional gravity drainage restricts installation. Brema also notes that such a machine is easier to reposition within the same bar or kitchen even after commissioning if the workflow layout changes.

Brema Ice CB 640 HC 1.0 is a self-contained undercounter ice maker for bars, restaurants, hotels and clubs that need a high-capacity cube ice machine with a large built-in storage bin.
The model includes an Automatic Washing system and Brema sprayer ice-forming technology. It produces up to 73 kg of cube ice per 24 hours; at standard conditions (21 °C air and 15 °C water), production is 72 kg. The integrated storage bin holds up to 40 kg of ice.
CB 640 HC 1.0 uses R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant and is designed for tropical working conditions up to +43 °C. Air or water condensation versions are available to suit the installation site.
The machine can produce four cube sizes: 13 g, 18 g, 33 g and 42 g, making it flexible for drinks service and professional kitchen use.
With dimensions of 735 x 603 x 850 mm and adjustable stainless steel feet of 110-150 mm, this model is built for professional undercounter installation. Removable and easy-clean parts, rounded internal surfaces and stainless steel 18/8 Scotch Brite finish help with daily maintenance.

The DP version uses Brema's proprietary DP System: the pump is integrated into the cabinet, requires no additional footprint and helps install the machine even when a convenient gravity drain point is not available below it. Drain water can be lifted up to 1.5 m, actively pumped up to 4 m and discharged up to 15 m with an inclined pipe. There is no float switch; a level / air-pressure sensor reduces scale-related jamming and stagnant-water risks.
