GEMM Refrigerated Cabinet GN 2/1 XFN/142 for Professional Kitchens

A refrigerated cabinet holds perishable food in a sealed, chilled space where cold air circulates continuously. The compressor draws heat from inside and expels it outside, lowering the internal temperature below the kitchen's ambient level. A fan spreads the cold evenly, preventing warm spots that could spoil food. Insulation around the walls slows heat transfer from the room, so the compressor runs less often and energy costs stay lower. The refrigerant, a gas that absorbs and releases heat as it cycles, determines how efficiently the system cools and how it affects the environment. The operator loads GN 2/1 gastronorm containers onto the adjustable rails inside. The touch control panel on the front sets the temperature between -2 and +8 °C; the digital display confirms the reading. Once the door is closed and locked, the ventilated cooling system starts automatically, circulating cold air across every shelf. An automatic defrost cycle melts ice from the evaporator without manual intervention, and condensate water evaporates on its own, reducing upkeep. LED lighting switches on when the door opens, showing the contents clearly. The cabinet is built from deep-drawn stainless steel, forming seamless internal walls that resist corrosion and clean easily. The 80 mm insulation layer keeps the temperature stable, while the 2.8-inch touch panel allows precise control of settings. Rails inside have 24 adjustable positions spaced 55 mm apart, so containers of different heights can be organised without wasted space. A key-operated lock secures the door, protecting stored food. The 0.56 kW power rating indicates the load on the electrical circuit, suitable for a standard 230 V single-phase supply. The 179 kg weight means the unit is moved with a pallet truck or trolley, not carried by hand. The 1390 mm width, 890 mm depth and 2090 mm height determine the floor space it occupies and the clearance needed for door swing. The 866 L usable capacity allows storage of up to eight GN 2/1 containers at once, with additional volume for taller items if fewer shelves are used. The seamless deep-drawn walls let you wipe away spills in seconds without scrubbing corners or seams. The deep-drawn walls have no seams or crevices where dirt can collect. The automatic defrost and condensate evaporation systems reduce manual maintenance, but the evaporator coil should be checked periodically for dust build-up that could reduce efficiency. The touch panel can be cleaned with a soft, dry cloth to avoid damage. The cabinet is supplied with eight GN 2/1 shelves included. It complies with climate class 5, ensuring reliable operation in warm and humid environments typical of professional kitchens. This model is listed under refrigerated storage in the professional catering equipment catalogue.
