Yes. With a 40kg chilling capacity and 24kg freezing capacity, it is intended for commercial kitchens that need to cool prepared food in larger batches. It is well suited to catering operations using cook-chill or cook-freeze processes, provided the expected batch size remains within the stated capacity.
The chilling cycle is rated to take food from 90°C to 3°C in 90 minutes, while the freezing cycle takes food from 90°C to -18°C in 240 minutes. These programmed performance figures help kitchens plan production, cooling and storage workflows while supporting safe rapid temperature reduction.
Check that the intended position can accommodate the packed dimensions of W895 x D910 x H1505mm and allow practical access for delivery and door operation. The unit uses a 230V supply with a 13amp plug. Confirm the final installed clearance and site suitability with your installer before ordering.
The shelf supports are compatible with GN 1/1 gastronorm pans, making the cabinet a practical choice for kitchens already using standard catering containers. Shelf runners have a 65mm gap, so buyers should check the height of their pans, food portions and containers when planning each batch.
The stainless-steel interior and exterior are designed for hard-wearing commercial use, while curved internal joints reduce dirt traps and make routine cleaning easier. It also has automatic defrost to manage frost build-up during normal operation. Regular cleaning of food-contact areas and checks of door seals should form part of the kitchen’s hygiene routine.
