Glacian HPB1152 1 Door Pizza Prep Fridge 216L 1152mm

The Glacian HPB1152 is a single door pizza prep fridge, 1152 mm wide with 216 L of refrigerated storage under a well that takes 5 x 1/3 GN pans (pans not supplied). It is built for a 43°C room, runs on R290 and arrives on 150 mm castors.

Why operators choose the HPB1152

• Monoblock with a removable condenser filter — the refrigeration is one serviceable block and the condenser filter pulls out for cleaning. A blocked condenser is the usual reason a prep fridge stops holding temperature in a hot kitchen, and this one can be cleaned by the kitchen rather than by a contractor.
• Rated to a 43°C room — that is the ambient temperature the cabinet is specified to keep working in - the number that matters when a prep fridge sits on a pizza line beside an oven.
• 304 stainless inside and out, rounded internal corners — 304 is the grade that resists the acids in tomato and brine; the rounded corners are there so the well can actually be cleaned out rather than just wiped.
• Removable well and sliding pan covers — the well lifts out to reach the places a fixed well hides, and the polycarbonate covers slide rather than lift, so the line keeps working with the covers on.
• R290 refrigerant — a hydrocarbon refrigerant with very low global warming potential. Tell your refrigeration contractor before a service call, as handling differs from the HFC blends.
• Nylon cutting board across the front — the board is included and adds to the footprint: overall depth goes from 760 mm to 830 mm with it fitted. Measure the aisle to 830 mm, not 760 mm.
• Spacer bars for 1/6 and 1/9 pans included — the well is specified at 5 x 1/3 GN, and the supplied spacer bars let it be subdivided into the smaller sizes a topping line actually uses.
• Self-closing doors, 75 mm insulation — the door shuts itself when a cook lets it go mid-service, and 75 mm of high-density insulation is what holds the set point once it does. The door takes 2 x 1/1 GN or a 2/1 GN pan lengthways.
• The single-door cabinet in the range — the HPB1815DD is the 1815 mm drawer version with 416 L and a nine-pan well.

Installation & delivery

Arrives on 150 mm castors, so it rolls into position; feet are available if the cabinet is to sit fixed. It plugs into a standard outlet - no plumbing or fixed wiring. Leave the manufacturer's clearance at the condenser end for airflow, and remember the cutting board takes overall depth to 830 mm when you set out the aisle. Delivered Australia-wide on a tail-lift vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

Q: How many pans does the HPB1152 well take?

Five 1/3 GN pans. Pans are not supplied, but spacer bars for 1/6 and 1/9 sizes are included so the well can be subdivided.

Q: How deep is it once the cutting board is fitted?

830 mm. The cabinet itself is 760 mm deep and the nylon cutting board adds 70 mm, so plan the aisle around 830 mm.

Q: What is the difference between the HPB1152 and the HPB1815DD?

Size and access. The HPB1152 is 1152 mm wide with 216 L, one door and a five-pan well. The HPB1815DD is 1815 mm wide with 416 L, two sets of drawers instead of doors and a nine-pan well.

Q: Will it hold temperature in a hot kitchen?

It is rated for a 43C ambient, which is the figure to check for a prep fridge on a pizza line. The condenser filter is removable so the kitchen can keep the airflow clear.

Q: What refrigerant does it use?

R290. It is a hydrocarbon refrigerant with very low global warming potential - mention it when booking a service call.

Q: Is it supplied with castors or feet?

It is supplied on 150 mm castors. Feet are optional if you would rather it sat fixed.
