Self-service display counter ROCAM 01200HEKO3FRE

A refrigerated buffet unit keeps prepared dishes chilled while presenting them for self-service. The ROCAM HEKO 3R uses static refrigeration: a cooling system circulates cold air through a stainless steel well beneath the display area, maintaining a consistent low temperature without forced airflow. This method prevents dehydration of food and reduces energy consumption, making it suitable for buffet settings where dishes remain on display for extended periods.

The operator loads gastronorm trays into the refrigerated well, which is 18 cm deep and fitted with a drain cock for easy cleaning. A fixed Plexiglas sneezeguard protects the food from contamination while allowing clear visibility. The unit is set to a temperature range of +2 °C to +10 °C, controlled by a digital thermostat that ensures precise regulation. Upper neon lighting illuminates the display, enhancing presentation without generating excess heat.

To use the HEKO 3R, the operator first ensures the unit is level and connected to a 230 V power supply. The digital thermostat is adjusted to the desired temperature within the +2 °C to +10 °C range. Gastronorm trays are placed into the stainless steel well, and the sneezeguard is positioned to cover the display. The unit's two castors with brakes allow for easy repositioning, while the 130 kg weight provides stability during operation. The operator monitors the temperature display and adjusts as needed to maintain food safety standards.

The structure is constructed from laminated wood with chromed details, offering durability and a professional appearance. The stainless steel well and drain cock are designed for hygiene and ease of maintenance. The unit's footprint of 1109 mm wide, 654 mm deep, and 1348 mm high fits into most professional kitchen layouts, while the 3.58 kW power rating indicates its load on the electrical circuit.

Cleaning involves wiping down the laminated wood surfaces and stainless steel components with appropriate sanitising solutions. The drain cock allows for quick drainage of the well, and the removable sneezeguard can be cleaned separately. The neon lighting requires occasional bulb replacement to maintain optimal illumination.

The HEKO 3R is available in a range of customisable colour finishes, including silver, rose, saffron, sky, ocean, ivy, sage, cappuccino, clay, grey, Niagara, veined white, white sand, birch, grey fog, elm, walnut, wenge, anthracite, and veined black. Optional accessories include upper chromed retaining bars, foldable dish holders in laminated wood or stainless steel, removable display grids, and additional shelving for the lower cupboard. These modifications allow the unit to be tailored to specific operational needs, such as wall-leaning configurations or enhanced tray storage.

The unit uses R290 refrigerant gas, which is environmentally friendly and efficient for static cooling applications. The 3 GN1/1 capacity supports standard gastronorm trays, making it compatible with a wide range of professional catering equipment.

This refrigerated buffet is categorised under professional refrigeration and display units, designed for use in hotels, restaurants, and catering services where food safety and presentation are critical.
