STAFF Ice System 1959 Showcase HPS-1300 for Chilled Display

A chilled showcase keeps perishable goods visible and safe by circulating cold air around an insulated glass cabinet. The refrigeration unit draws heat out of the interior, lowering the temperature to the set range and holding it there. This steady cooling prevents spoilage while allowing customers or kitchen staff to see the products without opening the door, reducing temperature fluctuations that waste energy and shorten shelf life.

The HPS-1300 is loaded from the front through sliding or hinged glass doors. Items are arranged on wire shelves or trays, then the doors are closed and the temperature control is set. Once switched on, the unit maintains the chosen temperature between +2 °C and +10 °C, displaying food, desserts or beverages without drying or freezing them. The operator monitors the internal temperature via a digital or analogue display and restocks as needed.

The cabinet is built from stainless steel and aluminium, with double-glazed doors to insulate the interior. The refrigeration system is mounted beneath or behind the display area, drawing air through vents and recirculating it to keep every shelf evenly chilled. The controls include a thermostat to set the temperature and a defrost cycle to prevent ice build-up on the evaporator coils.

A power rating of 1.3 kW indicates the load on the electrical circuit, requiring a dedicated 230 V single-phase supply. The 340 kg weight means the unit must be positioned on a solid floor or reinforced worktop, and the 2050 mm height, 620 mm width and 1895 mm depth determine the space it occupies in the kitchen or retail counter. The temperature range of +2 °C to +10 °C suits fresh produce, dairy, desserts and chilled beverages, but excludes frozen goods or hot holding.

Cleaning involves wiping the glass doors and stainless steel surfaces with a mild detergent, removing shelves to wash them separately, and vacuuming the condenser coils to maintain airflow. The defrost cycle should be checked regularly to ensure it runs without manual intervention.

The HPS-1300 is a standalone showcase designed for front-of-house display in professional kitchens, cafés and retail counters.
