TEFCOLD Upright Chiller GUC140 – 1090 Litre Ventilated Cooling Cabinet

An upright chiller keeps perishable food at safe holding temperatures by circulating cold air evenly around every shelf. A compressor draws heat from the cabinet and expels it outside, while a fan distributes the chilled air so that every tray or container cools at the same rate. This ventilated method prevents hot spots and condensation, extending shelf life without freezing the product. The operator loads trays or containers onto the adjustable wire shelves, closes the self-closing doors, and sets the desired temperature between +2 °C and +8 °C. The lock secures the contents during service. Strong wheels allow the unit to be moved for cleaning or reorganisation without lifting. The cabinet is built in stainless steel for hygiene and durability. Six white wire shelves, sized to the GN2/1 gastronorm standard, accept standard catering trays and containers. The ventilated cooling system runs on a 0.32 kW compressor, drawing power from a 220-240 V, 50 Hz supply typical of British commercial kitchens. A 1090 litre volume provides ample space for bulk storage without crowding, while the 1340 mm width, 845 mm depth and 2000 mm height fit through standard doorways and under most worktop extractor hoods. The 140 kg weight is distributed on wheels, so the unit can be rolled into position by one person. Cleaning follows from the construction: remove the wire shelves, wipe the stainless steel interior and exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent, and clean the wheels and castors to keep them free-moving. Inside the chiller, R290 refrigerant circulates through a sealed system, carrying heat away from stored ingredients without harming the kitchen's ambient temperature or the environment. The GUC140 is a single-door upright chiller with no stated variants. It is placed in the catalogue under professional refrigeration for catering and food-service use.
