[GLOBAL_MSG]

Optimise food preparation counter space, reclaim valuable walkway clearance in tight commercial kitchen passes, and hold chilled mise en place at food-safe temperatures with the FED-X XUB6C18S3V 1800mm Commercial Three Solid Door Stainless Steel Underbench Workbench Fridge. Purpose-engineered for Australian restaurant cooklines, cafe plating passes, sandwich bars, pizzeria prep lines, catering facilities, and aged-care dining operations, this shallow-depth 1795 mm wide undercounter refrigeration unit delivers a generous 339-litre gross capacity (254L net usable volume) behind three self-closing solid doors, maintaining holding temperatures from -2°C to +8°C even in high-heat commercial kitchen environments.

Shallow 600mm Profile for Narrow Kitchen Walkways & Wall-Flush Fit

Standard 700 mm or 800 mm deep commercial workbenches frequently choke circulation space in compact restaurant kitchens. The FED-X XUB6C18S3V solves this layout bottleneck with an agile 600 mm cabinet depth. Designed to fit beneath standard kitchen passes, preparation runs, and bar counters, it keeps walkways open and free of trip hazards. Engineered with internal rear ventilation air pathways, the cabinet can be positioned flush against back walls without restricting essential motor cooling airflow or compromising refrigeration efficiency.

Tropicalised +43°C Ambient Rating for Australian Cooklines

Peak commercial services in Australia subject kitchen equipment to brutal radiant heat from nearby combi ovens, fryers, and grills. Standard undercounter chillers often fail under these conditions, leading to warm cabinet zones and spoiled stocks. The XUB6C18S3V features a heavy-duty tropicalised refrigeration circuit rated to perform reliably in ambient room temperatures up to +43°C at 60% relative humidity. The system recovers operating temperatures rapidly after frequent door openings, keeping ingredients safely chilled in compliance with Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) Standard 3.2.2 Food Safety Practices.

European Engineering: Cubigel Compressor & Dixell Digital Controller

Reliability is essential when storing high-value fresh proteins, dairy products, prepped sauces, and garnishes. The XUB6C18S3V is powered by a high-torque European Cubigel commercial compressor paired with heavy-duty evaporator and condenser fan motors for smooth, continuous cooling. Temperature regulation is managed by an intuitive Dixell digital electronic controller with external LED read-out, allowing kitchen staff to verify holding temperatures instantly and maintain strict HACCP food-safety compliance.

Full Stainless Steel Construction with Coved Internal Hygiene Corners

Commercial kitchens demand durable, hygienic surfaces that clean down quickly at the end of service. The XUB6C18S3V features heavy-gauge commercial stainless steel inside and out, resisting food acids, grease splatters, and daily kitchen knocks. The internal storage cavity is fabricated with coved (rounded) internal corners, eliminating tight 90-degree dirt traps where moisture, crumbs, and bacteria accumulate. Paired with three heavy-duty adjustable wire shelves (one per door, rated up to 40 kg load capacity per tier), the fridge supports heavy gastronorm containers, produce tubs, and sauce buckets without sagging.

Eco-Friendly R290 Hydrocarbon & 60mm High-Density Insulation

Balancing high-performance cooling with low running costs, the cabinet runs on natural, eco-friendly R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant with zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and negligible Global Warming Potential (GWP). Wrapped in 60 mm thick HFC- and CFC-free cyclopentane foam insulation, the unit limits thermal gain to consume an economical 3.327 kWh / 24 hours while drawing just 230W. Solid self-closing doors with heavy-duty push-in magnetic door gaskets provide an airtight seal that locks chilled air inside.

Standard Australian 10A Plug for Immediate Plug-and-Play Setup

The FED-X XUB6C18S3V operates on single-phase 240V power and comes factory-fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp 3-pin plug and lead. Requiring no expensive 15A electrical work or hardwired installation, it offers immediate plug-and-play convenience on a standard commercial circuit.

Daily Care, Cleaning & Maintenance Guidelines

To maintain refrigeration efficiency, protect stainless steel finishes, and satisfy commercial food hygiene standards:

1. Power Isolation: Always switch off the Dixell digital controller, isolate the wall power socket, and disconnect the 10A plug before undertaking deep interior cleaning or mechanical maintenance.

2. Stainless Steel Workbench Top Sanitisation: Wipe down the 1795 mm stainless steel prep surface after every service using warm water, a food-safe commercial neutral detergent or degreaser, and a soft microfibre cloth. Always wipe in the direction of the metal grain. Never use steel wool, carbon wire scouring pads, or harsh bleach-based solutions that can scratch or pit the protective chromium oxide layer.

3. Internal Coved Liner Cleaning: Remove food containers and wire shelves during scheduled deep cleans. Wipe down the interior stainless steel walls, base floor, and coved corners using warm water and a commercial food-grade sanitiser. The rounded internal joins allow wiping clear without food debris lodging in corner joints.

4. Magnetic Door Gasket Maintenance: Wipe the magnetic door gaskets weekly with warm soapy water to remove accumulated grease, food crumbs, and spills. A clean, supple seal prevents warm kitchen air from leaking into the cabinet, reducing compressor run cycles. The push-in gaskets can be removed by hand without tools for sanitising or replacement.

5. Condenser Coil Cleaning (Critical): Kitchen grease and airborne flour dust collect on the condenser coil over time, insulating the fins and forcing the Cubigel compressor to run hotter and longer. Inspect and clean the condenser fins monthly using a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment or a stiff nylon brush. Keeping air passages clear protects compressor lifespan and maintains low daily energy consumption.

6. Washdown Safety Precautions: Never spray the underbench body, front door seals, or Dixell digital display with high-pressure washdown hoses or commercial pre-rinse guns. Clean all exterior surfaces with a damp, well-wrung cloth only.

Commercial Kitchen Placement & Operational Guidelines

The FED-X XUB6C18S3V is engineered for high-demand restaurant cooklines, cafe prep passes, and catering kitchens:

1. Dedicated 10A Electrical Connection: The fridge draws 230W on single-phase 240V power and comes factory-fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp 3-pin plug. Connect directly to an independent, dedicated commercial wall outlet. Never run commercial refrigeration units through domestic power boards or light-duty extension leads.

2. Level Benchtop Positioning: Position the 105 kg unit on a flat, level, structurally sound commercial floor. Adjust the levelling feet until the top workbench surface is completely level across both axes. A level bench ensures the three solid doors self-close flush and internal defrost condensate drains correctly.

3. Wall-Flush Clearance & Ventilation: Thanks to engineered internal air routing, this unit can be positioned directly against back walls. However, ensure that the front and side motor ventilation grilles remain unobstructed by floor mats, boxes, or kitchen debris to allow heat to exhaust freely.

4. Thermal Separation from Cookline Heat Sources: Avoid installing the underbench fridge directly adjacent to uninsulated open flame equipment (such as chargrills, wok burners, or deep fryers). Installing a heat shield between the fridge and cooking appliances prevents excessive radiant heat transfer and lowers power consumption.

5. Pre-Chilled Stock Loading (FSANZ Standard 3.2.2 Compliance): Commercial storage fridges are engineered to hold pre-chilled goods (-2°C to +8°C); they are not blast chillers.All food products must be pre-chilled prior to loading. Never overload the shelves past the 40 kg weight limit, and avoid blocking internal fan discharge vents to ensure uniform convective air circulation.

Yes. Drawing an energy-efficient 230W on single-phase 240V power, the fridge comes factory-fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp 3-pin plug and lead.

What is the advantage of a shallow 600mm depth underbench fridge?

Standard commercial underbench fridges are typically 700 mm or 800 mm deep, which can severely restrict movement in narrow kitchen walkways. A 600 mm shallow depth provides substantial chilled storage while preserving aisle space for staff to pass safely during busy service.

Can this unit be installed hard against a back wall?

Yes. The XUB6C18S3V features engineered rear ventilation channels that direct airflow appropriately, allowing the cabinet to sit flush against kitchen walls to save floor space.

What does a tropicalised +43°C ambient rating mean?

A tropicalised rating certifies that the refrigeration system, condenser coil, and compressor are built to maintain precise food-safe holding temperatures (-2°C to +8°C) even when ambient kitchen room temperatures reach up to +43°C at 60% relative humidity.

What is the difference between gross volume and net usable volume?

Gross volume (339 litres) is the total internal volume of the cabinet shell. Net usable volume (254 litres) represents the actual practical storage space across the three shelves and base floor while keeping required airflow channels clear for balanced convective chilling.

Are the internal corners coved for hygiene?

Yes. The interior stainless steel liner is fabricated with seamless coved (rounded) corners. This design eliminates hard-to-reach 90-degree corners where food soils and bacteria gather, allowing staff to wipe out the cabinet in seconds.

How does the 4-year warranty work?

The fridge includes a standard 2 Years Parts and Labour Warranty. Registering the product online within 14 days of the invoice date extends the coverage with an additional 2 Years Parts-Only Warranty, providing a total of 4 years of manufacturer warranty protection.
