Seaga ENV5B Refrigerated Beverage Merchandiser

Selections, capacity, tray configuration, refrigeration, dimensions, weight, power and payment support. Download it and compare the ENV5B against anything else you are considering.

We are not putting a monthly revenue figure on this page, because it depends on your placement and your beverage mix. A 240 capacity drink machine on a manufacturing floor and one in a small office are not the same business.

The calculator takes your product cost, your retail prices and your expected daily sales, then works out the return against the machine cost and its running costs.

This is a traditional machine rather than an AI unit, so the running costs stay simple.

Card Processing

• Monthly service fee on the card reader, from your payment provider
• Per transaction processing on card sales
• Both are charged by the provider, not by VMFS

Cash Handling

• No recurring fee, but budget the time
• Float management, coin tube refills and bank runs are the real cost of cash

Power

• 3.0 amps running draw at 380 watts
• Energy saving mode cuts that further on scheduled hours

Add only the payment hardware a location needs. A cash-only site does not need a reader, and a card-only site does not need a coin mech.

A 240 capacity beverage machine in a low traffic spot is a lot of cabinet standing still. The strongest drink placements have steady daily demand from the same people rather than one-off passing traffic.

If a placement underperforms, the machine moves. What changes with it is the beverage mix and the pricing, since a gym and an office buy differently, and both are programmable at the keypad rather than requiring a parts change.

One thing to plan for: unload the machine before transporting it, and never tilt it more than 20 degrees, because the compressor oils need to settle. After a move, leave it standing before you plug it in.

Cash counters by selection usually show within a month whether the problem was the location or the product mix. Talk to us before you write a placement off, and VPlaced can help find the next one.

Office and Break Room

• Weight the top two trays toward standard soda in 12 oz cans and 20 oz bottles, since they carry the volume
• Give one tray to bottled water, one to juice and iced tea, and one to sparkling and flavored water

Gym and Fitness

• Lead with sports drinks and bottled water, then give a full tray to energy drinks across 8.3 oz, 12 oz and 16 oz cans
• Link two water selections with Space to Sales, because water is what goes sold out first

Manufacturing and Warehouse

• Energy drinks and full-size sodas run hardest on shift changes
• Keep water on at least two selections and link them, since a hot floor drinks more of it than any planogram predicts

Then Adjust

• Every selection is operator defined and priced individually
• Cash counters report by selection, so you can see exactly which slot earns and rotate at each restock. Your second planogram will beat your first

Lead Times

• In stock units ship within 7 to 21 days
• Custom builds take 6 to 12 weeks and up, based on customization and units
• A custom wrap on its own adds about a week
• Lead times can change with selections, customization and stock

Where We Ship

• All 50 states including Hawaii and Alaska, plus Puerto Rico
• International shipping to most of the world
• Not available for North Korea and Russia

White Glove Delivery, On Request

• Machine brought inside to your exact spot
• Unpacking and packaging disposal included
• Leaves a clean space. Installation and setup are not included

At Delivery

• Inspect the crate before signing
• If the damage suggests the machine is affected, refuse delivery and send it back
• Take photos of the unit before it goes back
• Note smaller issues on the receipt with photos

Before It Lands

• At 625 lbs and 39 in wide, measure the doorway and the path to the final spot
• Leave at least 6 in behind the machine for condenser airflow
• Indoor placement only, between 50°F and 90°F, humidity at or below 45%
• The unit arrives on a protective skid. Door protectors and skid feet come off with a Phillips screwdriver, then the leg levelers set with a 7/16 in wrench

Keep the original packaging through the warranty period. If the machine ever has to go back for repair, you would otherwise have to buy it.

Covers defects in material and factory workmanship on the cabinet, the R-290 refrigeration system, the coil delivery, the display, the keypad and the machine controller.

Not covered: lighting components, refrigerant, glass, paint, decals, fuses and filters, along with labor and installation. Damage from improper power supply, abuse, vandalism, unauthorized service or a missed maintenance schedule is also excluded, so the condenser cleaning every two weeks is worth putting on the route sheet.

Parts are held in a US warehouse rather than ordered in when something is needed. On a beverage machine the parts that fail first are motors and coils, and both are stocked.

Call in year one or in year six and you reach the same US team, with a direct contact rather than a ticket queue.

Programming is where most operators want help first, and this machine has more of it than most: pricing per selection, timed discounts, Space to Sales links, shutdown intervals, energy saving schedules and the vend sensor sensitivity. Operator training and a programming walkthrough come with every ENV5B rather than being sold separately, because a machine set up properly once is a machine you are not driving back to.

Built-In Reporting

• Cash counters by whole machine, by row and by individual selection
• Historical count, cash total and card total, each resettable independently
• DEX supported, including short DEX and reset on read
• Motor count diagnostics that pinpoint a failing selection before it costs you sales
• Error log covering vend sensor, refrigeration sensor, coin mech, bill validator and card reader faults

For operators running more than one machine, VMFS Cloud brings the route into a single dashboard.

• Additional tray, taking selections from 40 to 48
• Motor pairing for oversized product, with the coil and rail change it needs
• Payment hardware: coin and bill acceptor, card reader
• Media screen
• Front skirt
• Custom wrap, partial or full

Multi-unit deployments run through the same process, and bundle pricing applies automatically from two machines up.

Corporate Office and Break Room

Beverage demand runs steady through every workday rather than spiking, which suits a 240 capacity machine. At moderate volume the cabinet covers a full week between restocks, and the energy saving schedule drops the machine into standby over the weekend.

Gym and Fitness Center

Energy drinks, sports drinks, sparkling water and bottled water all sell from one cabinet because the trays take slim cans and 20 oz bottles side by side. Space to Sales keeps the fast movers from going sold out mid-week.

School or Campus

The Braille backlit keypad and ADA compliant cabinet meet the accessibility standard these buyers have to satisfy. Calorie display per selection and timed shutdown intervals handle the nutrition and access rules that come with the placement.

Setup, programming, tray loading, pricing, vend sensor configuration, refrigeration maintenance and troubleshooting, including the error code table. We publish it up front because you should know how much work the machine is before you own one.

The ENV5B earns where steady beverage demand and multi-day capacity justify a full-size refrigerated cabinet. It is an indoor machine, so a covered, climate controlled space is the first requirement.

• Offices and corporate break rooms · Steady weekday demand, and 240 capacity covers a full week at moderate volume
• Gyms and fitness centers · Energy, sports drinks and water from one set of trays
• Schools and universities · ADA compliant with a Braille keypad, calorie display and timed shutdown
• Healthcare facilities · Round-the-clock beverage access for staff, visitors and patients
• Manufacturing and warehouses · Shift demand at all hours, with continuous operation
• Hotels and hospitality · Guest access in lobbies and on service floors

VPlaced evaluates each placement and structures the vendor agreement before the machine ships, and VAdviced handles compliance documentation, which matters most in schools and healthcare.
