Counter freezer Forcold M-GN3100BT-FC

A counter freezer maintains frozen food at deep-freeze temperatures while providing a worktop surface for kitchen tasks. The refrigeration system removes heat from the interior and expels it into the surrounding air, keeping the storage space consistently below -18 °C. This method preserves food safely for extended periods, preventing bacterial growth and maintaining texture and flavour. The counter design integrates the freezer into the kitchen workflow, allowing staff to access ingredients without leaving the preparation area.

The Forcold M-GN3100BT-FC operates by circulating refrigerant through a sealed monobloc unit. The compressor pressurises the refrigerant, which then condenses in the outdoor coil, releasing heat. As it evaporates inside the freezer, it absorbs heat from the interior, lowering the temperature. The process repeats continuously, maintaining the set range of -18 °C to -22 °C. The plug-in system allows the unit to be installed without specialised refrigeration work, making it suitable for kitchens where quick setup is required.

To use the freezer, open the self-closing door and load food onto the three GN1/1 grids. The door shuts automatically, ensuring minimal temperature fluctuation. The removable drawer units, mounted on stainless steel telescopic slides, allow easy access to stored items. The rounded corners of the interior simplify cleaning, while the tool-free door gasket can be removed for maintenance without additional tools. The door can be interchanged with units featuring two or three drawers, offering flexibility in storage configuration.

The freezer is constructed with a plastic monobloc refrigeration unit, designed for high thermal insulation and full recyclability. The exterior dimensions of 1795 x 700 x 850 mm provide a substantial worktop area while fitting into standard kitchen layouts. The 570 W power rating indicates the electrical load the unit places on the circuit, requiring a dedicated 240 V supply. The temperature range of -18 °C to -22 °C ensures compliance with food safety standards for frozen storage.

Cleaning involves wiping down the interior surfaces, removing the door gasket for thorough washing, and clearing any debris from the telescopic slides. The rounded corners and smooth surfaces reduce the risk of trapped food particles, while the removable components allow for deep cleaning without dismantling the unit.

The M-GN3100BT-FC is part of Forcold's M series, featuring plug-in monobloc refrigeration for straightforward installation and maintenance. It is categorised as a counter freezer, combining storage and workspace in a single unit.
