The Atosa ESL3861-SM is a 1400 mm-wide countertop salad and prep rail from the VRX series, built for cafés, kebab shops, sandwich bars, food trucks, and any service line assembling chilled toppings on demand.

GN pans are sold separately — order to suit your menu.

Key features

• 6 × GN 1/4 pan slots — flexible prep layout for sauces, toppings, garnishes
• 1400 mm × 330 mm footprint — fits on existing bench runs without rebuilding the line
• Italian Dixell digital controller — accurate, serviceable, industry-standard
• Glass sneeze-guard canopy — hygiene-compliant for direct customer-facing prep
• Static cooling system — quiet operation suited to front-of-house
• Stainless steel construction — food-safe, easy clean-down

Specifications

Venue suitability

Built for cafés making salads or sandwiches, kebab shops with topping rails, food trucks needing chilled prep at the service window, fast-food outlets, and pizzerias/burger sites running garnish/condiment lines. Best fit where bench depth is constrained — the 330 mm footprint slots into nearly any prep line.

Installation notes

Standard 240 V outlet. Sits on an existing bench — does not require dedicated under-bench refrigeration. Glass sneeze-guard is fitted at delivery; pans are not included and need to be ordered separately based on your menu.

Delivery & warranty

Pallet or large-parcel delivery. 2 years parts & labour from delivery. Atosa is a major commercial refrigeration brand with parts stocked locally for fast warranty turnaround.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Are GN pans included with the unit? A: No — GN 1/4 pans are sold separately so you can match pan depth (65 mm / 100 mm / 150 mm) to your menu. Tell us at order and we'll quote a matching pan set.

Q: Will it fit on my existing bench? A: Footprint is 1400 mm wide × 330 mm deep × 465 mm tall. The 330 mm depth is the key — it slots in front of most existing benches without forcing a rebuild. Allow 50 mm rear clearance for ventilation.

Q: What's the difference between the glass and steel canopy options? A: Glass sneeze-guard suits front-of-house prep where customers see the unit (hygiene visibility is part of the sell). Steel canopy is a back-of-house option — more impact-resistant, less visual presence. The default ESL3861-SM is the glass-canopy version.

Q: Is it suitable for a food truck? A: Yes — the static cooling system and 1400×330 footprint are both food-truck friendly. Confirm your truck's electrical setup matches the unit's power draw (we'll supply the data sheet on request).

Q: How does the Dixell controller help? A: Dixell is the Italian commercial-refrigeration controller standard. Digital setpoint, accurate temperature hold, and easy parts/service availability if a board ever fails. Avoids the cheap-controller failure mode common on budget prep rails.

Q: What's the warranty? A: 2 years parts & labour from delivery, supported by Atosa's Australian parts network. Refrigeration parts and Dixell controllers are stocked locally.
