Refrigerator GEMM 45001707

A refrigerated cabinet keeps perishable food chilled by circulating cold air around the interior. A compressor draws heat from the air inside and expels it outside, lowering the temperature to the set range. The ventilated system pushes the cooled air evenly across every shelf, preventing warm spots and maintaining consistent conditions even when the door is opened frequently. This method preserves texture, flavour and safety over extended storage periods without freezing the contents.

The operator loads food onto the three adjustable shelves, each sized to hold standard gastronorm trays. The shelves slide along vertical rails, allowing the spacing to be changed in 65 mm steps to fit taller items or stacked containers. Once the cabinet is loaded, the touch control panel is used to set the desired temperature between -2 °C and +8 °C. The unit then runs automatically, defrosting on a schedule and draining condensate without manual intervention. A lockable door secures the contents during service.

The exterior and interior are constructed from stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning. The walls are insulated with a 60 mm layer that reduces heat transfer and keeps the internal temperature stable. Three shelves are supplied, each measuring 445 mm by 560 mm, matching the footprint of gastronorm trays for organised storage.

The touch control panel displays the current temperature and allows the operator to adjust the set point. An automatic defrost cycle runs periodically to clear ice from the evaporator, and condensate is channelled away to a drain, eliminating the need to empty trays manually.

A 289 litre capacity provides space for several days' stock in a compact footprint of 640 mm wide by 700 mm deep. The cabinet stands 2050 mm tall, fitting beneath standard worktop heights or in alcoves. An 81 kg weight means the unit can be moved with a trolley but is stable once positioned. The 230 V single-phase supply matches the standard circuit found in professional kitchens, avoiding the need for special wiring. The refrigerant R600a is a hydrocarbon with low environmental impact, used in quantities that comply with current regulations.

Cleaning involves wiping the stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and approved sanitiser. The shelves can be removed for thorough cleaning, and the condensate drain should be checked periodically to ensure it remains clear. The automatic defrost system reduces the frequency of manual defrosting, but the evaporator should still be inspected for ice build-up if the door is left open for extended periods.

The SLIM SFN/01 is a single model with no variants. It is placed in the refrigeration section of the professional catering equipment catalogue, under upright cabinets.
