Upright freezer TEFCOLD GUF140

An upright freezer keeps food at deep-freeze temperatures by circulating cold air evenly across every shelf. A compressor draws heat from the interior and expels it through a condenser, while a fan distributes the chilled air so that no shelf stays warmer than another. This method prevents ice build-up and maintains a consistent temperature throughout the cabinet, preserving food quality and safety over long storage periods.

To use the freezer, load food onto the adjustable wire shelves in GN2/1 gastronorm trays or directly on the shelves. Set the desired temperature between -24 °C and -18 °C using the control panel. The self-closing doors seal automatically, and the lock secures the contents. Strong wheels allow the unit to be moved for cleaning or repositioning without lifting.

The cabinet is constructed from stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and ease of cleaning in a busy kitchen. Six wire shelves, also in white-coated finish, support gastronorm trays or loose items. Ventilated cooling ensures even temperature distribution, while the refrigerant R290 operates efficiently within the specified temperature range.

The 220-240 V, 50 Hz voltage requirement matches standard UK commercial power supplies, allowing the freezer to run on a dedicated circuit without special wiring. The 0.73 kW power rating indicates the load it places on the electrical system during operation. A 1090 L volume provides ample storage for bulk ingredients or prepared dishes, while the 1340 mm width, 845 mm depth, and 2000 mm height determine the floor space and vertical clearance needed in the kitchen.

Cleaning involves wiping down the stainless steel interior and wire shelves with a mild detergent solution. The wheels simplify moving the unit for thorough cleaning underneath. The adjustable shelves can be removed for separate cleaning if needed.

The freezer is designed for professional catering environments, with GN2/1 compatibility allowing seamless integration with other kitchen equipment. The catalogue places it in the commercial refrigeration section, under upright freezers.
