BHS-G Refrigerated Counter for GN1/1 Containers

A refrigerated counter keeps prepared ingredients chilled at serving height, ready for assembly into dishes without breaking the cold chain. Forced air circulates through a finned evaporator, pulling heat from the chamber and expelling it outside via a compressor and condenser. The airflow is organised to maintain an even temperature across every shelf, so every GN1/1 container receives the same cooling effect regardless of position.

The operator loads GN1/1 gastronorm containers onto the recessed floor of the chamber, sets the desired temperature on the digital panel, and starts the unit. A display shows the current reading; when the set point is reached the compressor cycles automatically to hold the range. Automatic defrosting runs at intervals to clear frost from the evaporator, while a manual override allows immediate defrosting if needed. The worktop remains at ambient temperature, providing a stable surface for plating or holding utensils.

The casing is constructed from stainless steel, including the 40 mm thick worktop and 50 mm high rear upstand. Removable rail supports allow the chamber to be cleared for cleaning, and a magnetic door gasket seals the chamber when closed. Polyurethane insulation 50 mm thick minimises heat ingress, while leveling bolts adjust the unit to a stable position on uneven floors. The compressor compartment is mounted on the left-hand side and can be specified on the right if required.

A 0.50 kW power rating indicates the load on the electrical circuit; the unit is designed for a 230 V single-phase supply, standard for professional kitchens. The 193 L volume accommodates multiple GN1/1 containers, keeping ingredients chilled within the +2 to +10 °C range, suitable for holding perishable items such as salads, desserts or pre-portioned proteins. The footprint of 950 x 700 mm fits within a typical worktop layout, while the 850 mm height allows comfortable access for staff.

Cleaning involves removing the rail supports and wiping the stainless steel interior and worktop. The magnetic door gasket can be detached for thorough cleaning, and the recessed chamber floor prevents spills from spreading. The compressor compartment should be kept free of dust to maintain efficient heat dissipation.

The counter is available with the compressor on the left or right side, matching kitchen workflows. It is designed for ambient temperatures up to +25 °C, ensuring consistent performance in professional environments.
