Hoshizaki RBWE135-AU 3 Door Glass Back Bar Fridge 212L | 10A

The Hoshizaki RBWE135-AU 3-Door Commercial Glass Back Bar Refrigerator is a heavy-duty, high-capacity underbench beverage display chiller engineered specifically for Australian bars, pubs, clubs, hotel lounges, bistros, and high-volume dining venues. Sized at 1350 mm Wide x 561 mm Deep x 900 mm High with an expansive 212-litre net effective capacity, this low-profile undercounter cabinet combines dependable thermal performance with an illuminated front-of-house merchandising profile. Rated for tropical operating conditions up to 35°C ambient, the RBWE135-AU incorporates triple-glazed argon-filled Low-E glass doors, heated anti-sweat mullions, and eco-friendly R290 refrigerant to hold craft beers, wines, ciders, and ready-to-drink mixers at exact serving temperatures from -2°C to 12°C.

Why venue operators choose the Hoshizaki RBWE135-AU:

• Triple-glazed argon-filled Low-E glass doors — three layers of tempered safety glass separated by insulating argon gas cavities reduce radiant heat transfer, cut energy costs, and keep stored drinks ice-cold.

• Heated anti-sweat mullions — integrated frame mullion heaters actively prevent condensation, door fogging, and moisture pooling around gaskets in humid Australian coastal climates.

• Sub-zero to chilled holding range (-2°C to 12°C) — versatile digital temperature control enables venues to serve ultra-crisp lagers and craft beers near freezing or dial up temperatures for chilled white wines and mixers.

• Engineered for tropical climates — rated for ambient operating conditions between 10°C and 35°C, ensuring stable cooling and rapid pull-down during hot summer service rushes.

• Nine heavy-duty plastic-coated shelves — comes supplied with 9 adjustable, rust-resistant plastic-coated wire shelves to organise bottles, cans, and drink cartons across custom multi-tiered displays.

• Eco-friendly natural R290 refrigerant — thermodynamic hydrocarbon cooling system delivers rapid pull-down while consuming just 2.71 kWh/24h, reducing operational overheads.

• Durable powder-coated galvanised steel chassis — heavy-gauge powder-coated galvanised steel interior and exterior panels withstand aggressive back-bar wear and resist corrosion.

• Full-height integrated door handles — ergonomic vertical grab handles allow fast, snag-free access for busy bartenders pulling drinks during peak service.

• Snag-free rounded interior construction — built with smooth, rounded interior edges and corners to prevent bottle chipping and protect staff during restocking and cleaning.

• Certified Australian GEMS compliance — registered under Australia's Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (GEMS Number: ARC4119) for verified commercial energy efficiency.

• Standard 10A plug-and-play installation — runs on standard Australian single-phase 220–240V power with a factory-fitted 10 Amp plug, requiring no costly 15A electrical circuit upgrades.

Technical Specifications

Operating & Service Notice

This commercial back bar refrigerator is an active beverage chiller designed to store pre-chilled bottled, canned, and packaged drinks; do not overload shelves flush against the rear air baffles to maintain unimpeded cold air circulation. When installing beneath a bar bench or within joinery, allow a minimum of 10mm clearance around the top, sides, and rear of the cabinet to ensure sufficient ventilation for the forced-air wire-on-tube condenser. Always plug the unit directly into a dedicated wall outlet; do not operate this appliance on multi-plug power boards, extension cords, or double adaptors. To prevent compressor strain and protect the 2-year warranty, inspect and clean the condenser coil periodically according to the instruction manual. In humid venues, maintaining adequate room air conditioning or ventilation will lower ambient humidity and keep glass visibility crystal clear.

Freight & Delivery Notice

Standard commercial freight delivery is available across Australia. Due to the 1350mm bench width and commercial glass cabinet weight, please contact our friendly commercial sales team for a custom freight quote if delivery is required for a residential or non-commercial address.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the Hoshizaki RBWE135-AU pull temperatures down to sub-zero?

Yes. The RBWE135-AU features an adjustable operating range of -2°C to 12°C. Setting the digital thermostat between -2°C and 0°C allows venues to pour frost-cold craft beers, lagers, and ciders without freezing the product, while a standard 3°C to 6°C setting is ideal for white wines, sparkling, and cocktail mixers.

How does triple-glazed Low-E glass eliminate condensation in humid bars?

The doors are constructed with three layers of tempered glass separated by argon gas chambers and treated with a Low-Emissivity (Low-E) coating that reflects ambient thermal radiation. Coupled with heated internal frame mullions, this configuration stops moisture from condensing on the outer pane during high-humidity Australian weather, ensuring drinks remain clearly visible to customers while preventing puddle hazards behind the bar.

How much stock can the 212-litre interior hold?

The internal cavity measures 1270 mm Wide x 433 mm Deep x 728 mm High and comes equipped with 9 adjustable plastic-coated wire shelves (three per door bay). This allows venues to customise shelf heights to stock standing 330ml/375ml beer stubbies, craft beer tallboys, wine bottles, and beverage cans with minimal wasted vertical space.

Is the RBWE135-AU compliant with Australian energy standards?

Yes. The unit is fully certified under Australia's Greenhouse and Energy Minimum Standards (GEMS) under registration number ARC4119. Operating on natural R290 refrigerant with forced-air cooling, it consumes 2.71 kWh/24h to keep ongoing electricity bills down.

What power supply is required to run this unit?

The Hoshizaki RBWE135-AU runs on standard Australian 220–240V single-phase power and comes factory-fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp plug. It requires no 15A electrical modifications or hardwiring and plugs straight into any dedicated commercial wall socket.
