Upright freezer FORCAR G-GN650BT-FC

A ventilated freezer maintains consistent cold air circulation to preserve food at stable sub-zero temperatures. The built-in fan distributes chilled air evenly throughout the cabinet, eliminating hot spots and ensuring every gastronorm pan freezes uniformly. This method prevents ice build-up on stored items and reduces the need for manual defrosting cycles, keeping the interior ready for continuous use in a professional kitchen.

To operate the freezer, load gastronorm containers onto the internal shelves or directly onto the rounded-corner base. Close the door and set the desired temperature between -18 °C and -22 °C using the electronic control panel. The digital thermostat maintains the chosen level automatically, while the concealed evaporator maximises usable space. An electric heating element around the door frame prevents condensation from forming, and the automatic defrost system melts any frost accumulation without operator intervention. Condensation water evaporates automatically, removing the need for manual drainage.

The cabinet is constructed from stainless steel, with external panels in galvanised plate at the rear and base. A 60 mm insulation layer separates the internal and external walls, improving energy efficiency. The motor compartment features insulated sides to reduce noise and heat transfer. Inside, an LED light illuminates the contents, and the door gasket can be removed without tools for cleaning. Height-adjustable feet allow the unit to be levelled on uneven floors, while a lockable door secures stored items.

The 650 litre capacity accommodates gastronorm 2/1 containers, providing ample storage for bulk ingredients or prepared dishes. The external dimensions of 740 mm width, 875 mm depth and 2090 mm height fit within standard kitchen layouts, while the internal measurements of 533 mm width, 700 mm depth and 1501 mm height define the usable space. A power rating of 520 W indicates the electrical load on the circuit, and the 220-240 V voltage requirement matches standard UK single-phase supplies. The unit operates in ambient temperatures up to +35 °C and relative humidity of 55%, suitable for most commercial kitchens.

Cleaning involves wiping down the stainless steel interior and removable door gasket. The rounded corners and concealed evaporator simplify maintenance, and the automatic defrost system reduces manual intervention. The freezer uses R290 cooling gas, a hydrocarbon refrigerant with low environmental impact.

The freezer is classified as energy class D, reflecting its efficiency under standardised testing conditions. The ventilated cooling system, electronic temperature control and automatic defrost function are standard features of this model.
