Bar refrigerator FAGOR 19089725

A top-loading bar refrigerator keeps bottles and cans chilled at serving temperature without taking up floor space behind the counter. The refrigeration system removes heat from the interior and releases it into the room through a static evaporator. High-density polyurethane insulation slows the return of room heat, so the unit holds a steady +2 to +6 °C even when the ambient temperature reaches +38 °C. This method uses no forced air, which reduces moving parts and keeps noise to a minimum in a busy bar setting.

Loading and retrieving stock is done from above. Five sliding stainless-steel doors open individually, each revealing a vertical compartment divided by wire shelves. Bottles stand upright, organised by type and size, so staff can see and reach every item without shifting others. The doors slide smoothly on their tracks and close automatically to prevent cold loss.

The operator sets the desired temperature with an analogue thermostat mounted inside the cabinet. Once the setting is made, the compressor cycles on and off to maintain the chosen range. A front grille on the right-hand side draws in room air, passes it over the condenser coils, and expels it forward again. This airflow path allows the refrigerator to be built into cabinetry without blocking ventilation.

The cabinet is constructed from stainless steel inside and out, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning in a high-traffic bar. The interior surfaces are seamless, with rounded corners that prevent dirt from collecting. A built-in drain channel collects condensation and directs it to an external outlet, so spills and meltwater do not pool inside. The front panel below the doors is removable, giving access to the compressor and condenser for routine maintenance.

Four adjustable stainless-steel legs raise the unit 65 to 88 mm off the floor, allowing the operator to level it on uneven surfaces and to run mop water underneath during cleaning. The legs are fixed to the base with threaded fittings, so height is set by turning each one individually.

The 696 litre volume provides storage for a full service without crowding. The 2482 mm width fits across a standard bar counter, while the 560 mm depth keeps the unit within reach of staff standing behind it. The 111 kg weight means the refrigerator is moved with a trolley but can be positioned by two people without mechanical help. A power draw of 0.292 kW plugs into a single-phase 220-240 V circuit, the standard supply in commercial kitchens and bars.

The refrigerant is R600a, a hydrocarbon that has no ozone-depleting potential and a low global-warming potential. A 60 Hz version is available as a separate article, specified for regions with that electrical standard.

Climate Class 4 certification confirms the refrigerator operates reliably in ambient temperatures up to +38 °C, matching the conditions in busy bars and restaurants.
