TEFCOLD Supermarket Cooler-Freezer with Panorama Glass Lid

A supermarket cooler-freezer that slides open with a single motion, revealing every item through a wide, angled glass lid. The refrigeration system circulates cold air evenly across the 430 L interior, pulling heat out of the stored products and holding them at the chosen temperature. A fan draws air over an evaporator coil; when the coil reaches a set point, the compressor cycles off, letting the fan continue to distribute the cold air. The same coil automatically defrosts at intervals, melting any ice that has formed without manual intervention.

The operator loads the cabinet from the top, sliding the glass lid to one side. Once the products are in place, the lid closes and the unit maintains the set temperature, cycling the compressor and fan as needed. LED lighting inside the cabinet illuminates the contents, making them visible through the glass even under bright store lighting. The temperature range spans from deep-freeze at -24 °C to chilled storage at +15 °C, allowing the same unit to hold frozen goods or fresh items that need to be kept just above freezing.

The cabinet is built with a steel frame and exterior panels finished in white, black or grey. The interior surfaces are lined with aluminium, which conducts cold efficiently and resists corrosion. The sliding glass lid is tempered for durability and safety, and the entire unit stands on adjustable feet to level it on uneven floors. Two refrigerant circuits, each charged with 60 g of R290, work in parallel to maintain temperature stability even when the lid is opened frequently.

Controls on the front panel set the target temperature and activate the defrost cycle. The temperature display shows the current reading, and an alarm sounds if the cabinet rises above the set point. The voltage requirement of 220-240 V matches the standard supply in British commercial premises, and the 0.421 kW power rating indicates a modest load on the circuit. The 121 kg weight allows the unit to be moved with a pallet truck or trolley, and the footprint of 1990 mm by 920 mm fits into a standard supermarket island layout, where units can be arranged back-to-back or with end freezers.

Cleaning involves wiping the glass lid and interior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The automatic defrost function eliminates the need to chip away ice, and the aluminium interior can be sanitised without damaging the finish. The LED lighting is sealed and requires no maintenance.

Three colour options are available: white (article SHALLOW-HEAD-CF), black (SHALLOW-HEAD-B-CF) and grey (SHALLOW-HEAD-A-CF). The catalogue places this model in the Shallow-Head range, designed for supermarket and convenience-store displays.
