It is suited to professional kitchens that need to chill up to 40kg or freeze up to 24kg of cooked food per cycle. This makes it a practical choice for restaurants, catering operations, hotels and care settings that batch-cook and need to cool food safely before storage, service or regeneration.
The unit is specified to chill food from 90°C to 3°C in 90 minutes, or freeze from 90°C to -18°C in 240 minutes. Rapid temperature reduction helps kitchens move prepared food into refrigerated or frozen storage promptly, supporting controlled cook-chill and cook-freeze processes.
Installation requires a 230V supply with a standard 13amp plug, avoiding the need for a three-phase electrical connection. Allow space for the stated unit dimensions of W790 x D800 x H1290mm, plus suitable access around the cabinet for loading, cleaning and ventilation. Its packed dimensions are W895 x D910 x H1505mm, which are useful for checking delivery access.
The cabinet is designed for GN 1/1 gastronorm shelves or pans and provides eight grid positions with a 65mm gap between shelf runners. This format is useful for kitchens already working with standard gastronorm containers, allowing trays of prepared meals, ingredients or plated components to move through production with fewer transfers.
The stainless-steel interior and exterior are durable for commercial food environments, while curved internal joints reduce hard-to-reach corners where debris can collect. The automatic defrost function also simplifies routine operation. Staff should still follow a regular cleaning schedule and keep door seals, shelf runners and internal surfaces clean to support hygiene and efficient performance.
