Switch seamlessly between fresh holding refrigeration and sub-zero deep freezing with the Thermaster CBR2-3 265L Commercial Multi-Temperature Flexdrawer Counter. Purpose-engineered for Australian commercial cooklines, busy burger outlets, hotel pass counters, pizzerias, steak houses, and catering prep stations, this versatile 1230 mm wide low-profile refrigerated counter allows chefs to transform operational modes from a chiller (+2°C to +8°C) to a deep freezer (-18°C to -22°C) at the touch of a button.
Kitchen menus and production demands fluctuate between lunch prep and dinner trade. The CBR2-3 eliminates the need for dedicated separate appliances by featuring independently switchable multi-temperature drawer technology. With a simple press on the digital control interface, line cooks can transform the counter from a fresh holding refrigerator for raw proteins, prepared garnishes, dairy, and sauces into a heavy-duty sub-zero holding freezer for chips, burger patties, seafood portions, and dessert bases.
Australian cooklines generate intense heat during service rushes. The CBR2-3 is rated to operate reliably in demanding commercial environments up to 40°C ambient temperature with 40% relative humidity (Climate Class 4). Powered by natural, sustainable R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant, it provides rapid temperature recovery after frequent drawer openings with zero ozone depletion potential and low carbon emissions. An automatic energy-saving hot gas defrost cycle clears the evaporator coils quickly using compressor heat, preventing ice build-up without manual downtime.
Engineered for efficient culinary workflow, the heavy-duty drawers are designed to accommodate full-size GN 1/1 Gastronorm pans up to 150 mm deep. This direct-pan configuration maximizes available storage across its 265-litre gross capacity (154L net volume), allowing staff to transfer bulk-prepped ingredients directly from the walk-in cool room or prep bench into the drawer runners without transferring food into secondary storage containers.
Built to withstand continuous kitchen service, the CBR2-3 features high-grade commercial stainless steel construction across both exterior and interior surfaces. Routine maintenance is made simple with tool-free magnetic drawer gaskets that pull away cleanly by hand for rapid washing and snap back into place without service calls. Mounted on 90 mm heavy-duty commercial castors (featuring front-wheel locking brakes), the 870 mm high counter rolls out smoothly for line sweep-downs, floor sanitisation, and grease trap access.
Drawing an economical 500W on standard single-phase 230V/240V power (approx. 2.1 Amps), the CBR2-3 connects straight into any standard Australian 10 Amp commercial wall outlet. The user-friendly electronic controller features an illuminated LED display to provide continuous real-time temperature verification for strict HACCP food-safety compliance.

To protect multi-temperature refrigeration efficiency, prevent compressor strain, and ensure commercial hygiene compliance:
Power Isolation: Before undertaking deep interior cleaning or removing drawer assemblies, power down the controller at the wall switch and disconnect the 10A plug from the outlet.
Tool-Free Gasket Cleaning: Pull the magnetic rubber drawer gaskets away from the stainless steel drawer frames by hand. Wash them in a commercial sink using warm water and a neutral, food-safe detergent. Wipe clean and allow them to dry before pressing them back into the retaining track. Never use harsh abrasive pads or caustic chemicals that cause rubber cracking.
Drawer Runner & Interior Sanitisation: Extend the drawers fully and wipe down the stainless steel runners, drawer tubs, and internal cavity using a soft microfibre cloth dampened with warm water and a food-grade sanitiser. Wipe up all food juices, marinades, and liquid spills immediately. Never use steel wool, wire brushes, metal scrapers, or chlorine bleach, as these will scratch the surface and induce pitting.
Condenser Coil Dusting (Crucial for Cookline Resilience): Unplug the unit and inspect the compressor compartment monthly. In line-cook environments, airborne cooking grease and flour dust settle on the condenser fins, restricting airflow and forcing the compressor to run hotter. Gently vacuum or brush the condenser fins with a soft brush attachment at least once a month.
Drainage Clearance: Check the internal condensate drain channel during routine cleaning to ensure it remains clear of loose packaging labels, plastic film, and food crumbs.
Electrical Safety: Never wash down the counter with a commercial pre-rinse hose or high-pressure spray gun, and ensure water does not enter the digital controller or rear ventilation louvres.
The Thermaster CBR2-3 is engineered for cookline integration, under-counter pass areas, and commercial prep stations:
Standard 10A Electrical Connection: The flexdrawer counter draws 500W on standard single-phase 230V/240V power and comes fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp plug. Connect directly into a dedicated commercial wall outlet. Avoid the use of domestic extension leads or double adaptors.
Solid Floor Positioning & Braking: Position the unit on a flat, level, and solid commercial floor. Once rolled into place on its 90 mm castors, engage the front castor brake locks firmly to prevent counter movement when staff pull open loaded drawers during busy service.
Condenser Airflow Clearances: Maintain at least 100 mm of clearance around the refrigeration ventilation louvres to allow hot exhaust air to dissipate efficiently. Never box the unit into a completely unventilated joinery cavity without adequate air intake and exhaust vents.
Thermal Separation & Direct Heat: While rated for 40°C ambient temperatures, avoid placing the counter directly adjacent to intense open-flame cooking equipment (such as open charbroilers, radiant chargrills, or wok burners) without a proper thermal heat shield. Radiant exterior heat raises drawer surface temperatures and forces the compressor to cycle continuously.
Mode Switching Protocol: When switching the unit from Chiller (+2°C to +8°C) to Freezer mode (-18°C to -22°C), allow the cabinet to pull down to sub-zero temperatures before loading frozen inventory. When switching from Freezer to Chiller mode, allow accumulated frost to clear via the hot gas defrost cycle before loading fresh chilled foods.
Pre-Chilling & Pre-Freezing Protocol: The drawers are designed as holding stations.All food products must be pre-chilled below +5°C (in fridge mode) or pre-frozen below -18°C (in freezer mode) before loading. Never use the drawers to freeze warm or room-temperature food products.
Standard commercial road freight delivery is available Australia-wide to commercial business addresses with level ground access or loading docks. Due to the heavy commercial stainless steel build and 1230 mm width of this flexdrawer counter, tail-lift delivery or a commercial loading dock with pallet handling equipment is recommended. For deliveries to residential or non-commercial addresses, please contact our friendly commercial sales team prior to ordering to obtain a customised courier quote and confirm delivery logistics.
Can I plug this flexdrawer counter into a standard Australian 10 Amp power point?
Yes. The Thermaster CBR2-3 draws an economical 500W on standard single-phase 230V/240V power and comes fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp plug. It connects straight into standard commercial wall sockets with no specialized electrical wiring required.
Can one drawer operate as a fridge while the other operates as a freezer simultaneously?
No. The CBR2-3 functions as a unified dual-temperature counter where the drawers operate together either in Refrigerator mode (+2°C to +8°C) or in Freezer mode (-18°C to -22°C). You can switch between either mode quickly via the front digital touch controller.
What size Gastronorm pans fit in the drawers?
Each drawer is sized to hold standard GN 1/1 Gastronorm pans up to 150 mm deep. You can also configure the drawers with smaller modular pan sizes (such as two 1/2 GN pans or three 1/3 GN pans) using standard pan divider bars.
How do the tool-free magnetic gaskets work?
The drawer seals feature a push-in magnetic dart design that locks into a retaining channel around the drawer frame. They can be pulled out by hand for washing or replacement without screwdrivers or tools, simplifying daily sanitisation.
What is the benefit of hot gas defrosting?
Unlike standard electric-element defrost systems that use extra power and can warm up the cabinet, hot gas defrost routes hot refrigerant vapour directly through the evaporator coils. This melts frost rapidly, consumes less energy, and restores sub-zero holding temperatures much faster.
How do I qualify for the extended 2+2 Year Warranty?
The unit comes with a standard 2 Years Commercial Parts and Labour warranty. By registering your product online with the manufacturer within 14 days of the invoice date, you receive an additional 2 Years of Parts-Only warranty coverage, securing four total years of manufacturer protection.
