Refrigerated counter with drawers Novameta BHS-FP0-E230-130/70/90

A cooling counter maintains food at safe holding temperatures by circulating chilled air around an insulated cabinet. The refrigeration unit extracts heat from the interior, lowering the air temperature below the ambient level. This steady cold environment slows bacterial growth, preserving freshness without freezing. The counter's worktop doubles as a preparation surface, allowing ingredients to be portioned, plated or assembled directly above the chilled storage below. To use the P230, open the single door or slide one of the three drawers to load or retrieve items. Set the desired temperature between -5 °C and +8 °C using the control panel. The refrigeration unit cycles automatically, keeping the interior within the chosen range. The 1300 mm by 700 mm worktop provides space for temporary staging of ingredients or finished dishes while the chilled compartment below keeps them at a consistent temperature. The cabinet is constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning in a kitchen environment. High-quality insulation minimises heat transfer, reducing the energy required to maintain the set temperature. The refrigeration unit is housed within the cabinet, eliminating the need for external condensing units. Controls include a digital thermostat to select the operating temperature and an indicator light to show when the unit is actively cooling. The temperature range of -5 °C to +8 °C allows the counter to hold chilled ingredients, thawed products or lightly chilled prepared dishes without freezing them. The 361 litre volume provides ample storage for ingredients, prepped components or plated dishes awaiting service. The 1300 mm length and 700 mm depth create a substantial worktop footprint, suitable for busy kitchen stations. The 900 mm height positions the work surface at a comfortable working level, while the 0.293 kW power rating indicates a modest load on the electrical supply, compatible with standard kitchen circuits. The seamless stainless steel worktop and door fronts can be sanitised in seconds between prep shifts without leaving water marks or harbouring bacteria. The door seal should be inspected regularly to ensure it remains intact and free from debris. Drawers and shelves can be removed for thorough cleaning, and the interior should be defrosted periodically if ice build-up occurs. The P230 is a single model with no variants. It is categorised as a cooling counter within the refrigeration section of the professional catering equipment catalogue.
