Refrigerated module ROCAM 01900OM5R

A refrigerated buffet unit keeps prepared dishes chilled while presenting them for self-service or assisted service. The compressor circulates R290 refrigerant gas through coils beneath the well, drawing heat out of the stainless steel liner and lowering the air temperature around the food. A digital thermostat maintains the set point between +2 °C and +10 °C, slowing bacterial growth without freezing the contents. The well's rounded edges and 26 cm depth allow GN1/1 gastronorm containers to sit securely while the drain cock simplifies cleaning.

To operate the buffet, the operator loads up to five GN1/1 containers into the well, sets the desired temperature on the digital panel, and powers the unit. If LED lighting is fitted, it illuminates the dishes from above, while a sneeze-guard—straight, inclined, or fully enclosed—protects the food from airborne particles. Foldable dish holders, tray slides, or removable grids can be positioned on the front, back, or short sides to organise serving utensils or additional containers. The lower compartment, when specified, provides extra storage for backup dishes or ingredients, accessed through doors or an intermediate shelf.

The buffet's structure is stainless steel, finished with either laminated wood, powder-coated steel, or stainless steel panels. Adjustable feet allow levelling on uneven floors, and a PVC skirting board conceals the feet for a neat appearance. Reinforced castors or fixed feet can be chosen depending on whether the unit needs to be moved. The external dimensions of 1821 × 747 × 910 mm accommodate the well, compressor, and optional lower compartment, while the packing size ensures safe transport.

Controls include a digital thermostat for temperature regulation. The 230 V power supply connects via a standard UK plug or a Schuko plug with a lid, and the 0.33 kW rating reflects the compressor's load, which may increase slightly if LED lighting is added. The temperature range of +2 °C to +10 °C suits cold starters, salads, desserts, and pre-plated dishes that require chilling but not freezing.

Cleaning involves wiping the stainless steel well and liner with a damp cloth, draining residual water through the cock, and sanitising the sneeze-guards and tray slides. The laminated wood or powder-coated panels can be cleaned with a mild detergent, while the PVC skirting board is wiped down to remove dust. Optional components like grids, dish holders, and separators for GN containers are removable for thorough cleaning.

Customisation options include LED lighting, various sneeze-guard styles (straight, inclined, or fully enclosed), foldable dish holders in laminated wood or stainless steel, tray slides, removable grids, and lower compartments with doors. The unit can be finished in a range of colours for laminated wood (e.g., silver, walnut, ocean) or powder-coated steel (e.g., pure white, matte black, aluminium). Additional features like reinforced castors, adjustable feet, and separators for GN1/1 or GN1/2 containers allow the buffet to adapt to different kitchen layouts and service styles.

The ROCAM OMNIA 5R is categorised under refrigerated buffets, designed for self-service or assisted-service counters in professional kitchens, catering operations, and buffet setups.
