Frequency Asked Questions (FAQs)

Find quick answers to common questions about this product.

It is suited to professional kitchens that need to cool moderate batches of cooked food safely and consistently, including restaurants, cafés, pubs, caterers and care settings. Its 23kg chilling capacity is designed for batches cooled from 90°C to 3°C, while the stainless-steel build is intended for demanding day-to-day commercial use.
The unit can chill up to 23kg of food from 90°C to 3°C in 90 minutes. For blast freezing, it handles up to 13kg from 90°C to -18°C in 240 minutes. Buyers should base batch planning on the relevant mode, as freezing capacity is lower than chilling capacity.
A standard 230V 13amp plug supply is required, allowing straightforward electrical connection where a suitable socket is available. The cabinet measures W790 x D700 x H850mm, so allow room for the unit, door opening and staff access. Check the intended position carefully before delivery, particularly in compact kitchens.
This model accepts GN1/1 gastronorm pans and has five grid positions with 65mm shelf spacing. This is useful for kitchens already preparing, storing or transporting food in full-size GN containers, as it helps integrate blast chilling into existing preparation workflows. Confirm that pan depth and the food load are appropriate for the available spacing.
The stainless-steel interior and exterior, curved internal joints and automatic defrost system are designed to simplify routine cleaning and reduce areas where food debris can collect. A digital temperature display supports clear monitoring, while the hinged door has an automatic return mechanism to help limit unnecessary cold-air loss when staff are loading or unloading food.
