TEFCOLD UC53360 Freezing Counter with Six GN1/1 Drawers

A freezing counter maintains food at safe holding temperatures while keeping it accessible for service. Inside the unit, a refrigeration system circulates cold air evenly across the drawers, preventing warm spots and ensuring consistent cooling throughout the cabinet. The ventilated cooling method speeds up temperature recovery after the drawers are opened, so food stays within the required range even during busy service periods. To use the counter, slide the GN1/1 drawers out, load them with prepared food, and push them back into place. The automatic defrost system removes ice build-up without manual intervention, so the unit remains efficient and ready for continuous use. Adjustable legs allow the counter to sit level on uneven floors, keeping the drawers aligned and easy to open. The cabinet is built from stainless steel AISI 304, a corrosion-resistant material that withstands frequent cleaning and kitchen humidity. The six GN1/1 drawers provide organised storage, letting staff separate different food types without cross-contamination. Ventilated cooling ensures air moves freely around the drawers, maintaining the set temperature range of +2 to +8 °C. A power rating of 0.3 kW indicates a modest electrical load, suitable for standard kitchen circuits. The 220-240 V, 50 Hz voltage matches the UK mains supply, so no special wiring is needed. The 125 kg weight means the unit should be positioned before delivery, as moving it later requires equipment or multiple staff. The 1795 mm width fits standard worktop runs, while the 262 L volume offers ample space for bulk storage. The seamless stainless-steel drawers slide open without catching flour or grease, so a single pass with a soft cloth restores the hygienic finish between service shifts. The drawers can be removed for thorough washing, and the ventilated cooling system should be checked periodically to ensure unobstructed airflow. Automatic defrosting reduces maintenance, but the interior should still be inspected for ice accumulation during quieter periods. The counter is designed for professional kitchens where food needs to be held at safe temperatures before service. Its placement in the catalogue is under freezing and refrigerated counters, alongside other stainless steel storage solutions.
