Freezer table GEMM 42040010

A table freezer that doubles as a work surface, the GEMM TAPBT/16S keeps ingredients at sub-zero temperatures while providing a stable stainless-steel platform for food preparation tasks in professional kitchens.

The unit employs a static refrigeration system improved by a fan that distributes cold air evenly across every shelf. This Helped Static System (HSS) prevents uneven cooling and maintains consistent freezing without the drying effect of forced-air blast freezers. The refrigerant, R290, is a hydrocarbon with a low environmental impact, selected for its ability to sustain the required temperatures.

Chefs can load 60 x 40 cm gastronorm containers onto the adjustable runners. A 2.8-inch touch panel allows precise temperature settings between -15 °C and -20 °C. The compressor initiates an automatic defrost cycle, using heating elements to melt ice build-up, while condensate water is drained away automatically. Internal lighting illuminates the contents when the door opens for clear visibility.

The construction features a stainless-steel cabinet with 50 mm polyurethane insulation. The worktop is 40 mm high, offering a rigid surface resistant to dents and spills. The technical compartment on the right side contains the compressor and condenser, accessible for maintenance without relocating the unit. Seven pairs of runners are provided, spaced at 75 mm intervals to fit containers of different heights.

The digital panel displays and adjusts the temperature. A single control sets the desired freezing level, with the system maintaining it automatically. The panel also indicates defrost status and alerts, enabling staff to monitor performance without opening the door.

With a 270 litre capacity, the unit can store multiple gastronorm containers. The 0.485 kW power rating operates on a standard 230 V single-phase circuit, suitable for most commercial kitchens. The 131 kg weight requires two people for movement, but its 1540 mm width and 770 mm depth fit beneath standard worktops and shelving. The overall height of 860 mm includes a body height of 710 mm, allowing clearance for under-counter storage.

Cleaning involves wiping the stainless-steel interior and worktop with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The runners can be removed for thorough washing. Automatic defrost and condensate removal reduce manual ice scraping, though the technical compartment should be vacuumed periodically to prevent dust accumulation that could affect condenser efficiency.

The TAPBT/16S meets Climate Class 5 standards, ensuring reliable operation in ambient temperatures up to +40 °C and high humidity, typical in busy catering environments.

Seven pairs of runners are included, enabling immediate adjustment of shelf heights to accommodate various container sizes.
