Refrigerated module ROCAM 01900OM3PR

A refrigerated buffet unit keeps prepared dishes chilled while presenting them on an open worktop for self-service. The OMNIA 3PR uses static refrigeration: a compressor circulates R290 refrigerant gas through coils beneath the worktop, drawing heat away from the food zone. The stainless steel frame forms a 3 cm containment edge that traps cold air around the dishes, maintaining a consistent temperature without forced airflow. A digital thermostat regulates the cooling cycle, holding the shelf between +2 °C and +10 °C to meet food-safety standards for cold holding.

The operator loads up to three GN1/1 gastronorm containers onto the HANEX® betacryl worktop, which is non-porous and HACCP-compliant. The worktop's smooth surface allows easy sliding of containers and quick wipe-down between services. A stainless steel structure with wooden panelling supports the worktop and houses the compressor, while the all-around frame prevents spills from reaching the floor. The unit stands on 125 mm diameter castors, two with brakes, allowing it to be moved into position and secured during service.

Controls consist of a digital thermostat that sets the desired temperature within the +2 °C to +10 °C range. The thermostat's display provides real-time feedback, so the operator can monitor conditions without opening the unit. A 230 V power supply connects to a standard UK plug, drawing 0.352 kW under normal operation; LED lighting, if fitted, increases the load slightly.

The external dimensions of 1171 x 747 x 910 mm give the unit a compact footprint suitable for front-of-house use, while the top surface measures 975 x 593 mm, accommodating the three GN1/1 containers. The lower compartment, 608 x 444 mm, provides additional storage for backup ingredients or small equipment. An 80 kg weight ensures stability during service but allows repositioning when needed.

Construction combines a stainless steel frame with laminated wood or powder-coated steel panels, available in a range of colours including silver, rose, saffron, lime, sky, ocean, ivy, sage, cappuccino, clay, grey, niagara, veined white, white sand, birch, grey fog, elm, walnut, wenge, anthracite, veined black, pure white, aluminium, matte black and chocolate. The HANEX® betacryl worktop resists scratches and stains, making it practical for high-traffic service areas.

Optional accessories adapt the unit to different layouts. Foldable dish holders in laminated wood or stainless steel attach to the short side, while tray slides in wood, stainless steel or tube fit front, back or side positions. Removable slides allow reconfiguration for wall-leaning installations, and reinforced hinges support frequent folding. Custom adhesive stickers can brand the unit, and 75 mm castors or aluminium-coated PVC feet skirting are available as alternatives.

Cleaning involves wiping the HANEX® worktop with a damp cloth and mild detergent, while the stainless steel frame and containment edge can be sanitised with food-safe solutions. The lower compartment and compressor housing require periodic dusting to maintain airflow. The digital thermostat's accuracy should be checked against a calibrated probe to ensure compliance with temperature regulations.

The OMNIA 3PR is categorised as a refrigerated buffet unit in ROCAM's front-of-house equipment range, designed for self-service presentation of chilled dishes in professional kitchens and catering operations.
