FAGOR CUPT-24G 1186 L Four-Door GN 2/1 Refrigerator

A professional refrigerator built to hold gastronorm 2/1 trays in high-turnover kitchens. Cold air is forced through the cabinet by a fan, circulating evenly around every shelf. This forced convection keeps the temperature steady between 0 and 8 °C, preventing warm spots that can spoil food or overwork the compressor. The system is simple: the fan runs continuously while the compressor cycles on and off, maintaining the set point without manual intervention. Loading is organised in four separate compartments, each with its own door. The operator slides GN 2/1 trays onto six epoxy-coated shelves that can be removed or repositioned at 55 mm intervals. Each shelf carries up to 40 kg, so the full 1186 L volume can be filled with dense ingredients without overloading. The shelves rest on vertical guides inside the cabinet, allowing the layout to be reconfigured for taller or shorter items in minutes. The sequence of use is straightforward. The electronic control panel on the front sets the target temperature and displays the current reading. Once the cabinet reaches the set point, the fan keeps the air moving, and the off-cycle defrost system takes over. During defrost, the compressor stops and the evaporator warms slightly, melting any frost that has formed. The water drips into a drain channel and is evaporated automatically, so no manual draining is needed. The doors seal with magnetic gaskets and can be left open at 120° or will close automatically if opened less than 90°, reducing cold-air loss. The interior is made of AISI 304 stainless steel, the same grade used for worktops and sinks, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning. The exterior is also stainless steel, finished to food-safe standards. Rounded corners and an integrated drainage channel prevent dirt from collecting, and the 60 mm polyurethane insulation minimises temperature drift. Adjustable legs allow the unit to be levelled on uneven floors, and the feet can be raised to 200 mm for easier cleaning underneath. The controls consist of a digital display and a set of buttons that adjust the temperature. The display shows the current temperature inside the cabinet, and the buttons let the operator raise or lower the set point within the 0–8 °C range. A separate energy-saving mode can be activated to reduce power consumption during quieter periods. The 1186 L volume provides space for approximately 24 full-size GN 2/1 trays, depending on how the shelves are arranged. The 300 kg weight means the unit is floor-standing and must be moved with a pallet truck or similar equipment. The 1318 mm width fits through standard kitchen doorways, while the 2040 mm height requires sufficient ceiling clearance. The 0.436 kW cooling power is drawn from a 220–240 V single-phase supply, typical for commercial refrigeration circuits. Stainless-steel interior and rounded corners let kitchen staff hose down every shelf and crevice without trapping food debris or harbouring bacteria. The stainless-steel interior and epoxy-coated shelves can be wiped down with standard kitchen sanitiser. The removable shelves allow deeper cleaning, and the rounded corners prevent dirt from accumulating. The automatic defrost system eliminates the need for manual defrosting, but the drain channel should be checked periodically to ensure it is clear. The refrigerator is available in a 60 Hz version with a slight increase in cooling power, specified separately. The C energy class indicates moderate efficiency, balancing initial cost with running expenses over the life of the unit. The catalogue places this model in professional refrigeration for catering and foodservice, alongside other GN-compatible units.
