Ensure strict HACCP food safety compliance and accelerate meal prep workflows with the Polar G-Series CK640-A Compact Commercial Countertop Blast Chiller & Freezer. Engineered for commercial kitchens, catering services, bakeries, and food prep facilities with limited benchtop space, this powerful countertop unit rapidly drops food temperatures through the critical danger zone without sacrificing valuable floor space.
Constructed from heavy-duty commercial stainless steel with 60mm high-density insulation, the CK640-A safely chills 8kg of hot food from 70°C to 3°C in just 90 minutes, or freezes 5kg of hot food from 70°C to -18°C in 240 minutes. Designed to hold up to three 2/3GN pans (65mm deep), it features intuitive digital controls, an integrated core food temperature probe, a self-closing insulated door, and eco-friendly R290 refrigerant for maximum thermal efficiency.
