[THERMASTER_MSG]

The Thermaster PG210FA-XB Commercial Two Door Cold Bench Salad & Pizza Prep Station is a heavy-duty, high-capacity preparation counter engineered specifically for busy Australian commercial kitchens, sandwich bars, cafes, pizzerias, salad bars, and catering venues. Featuring a massive 1000-litre cabinet volume and a broad 2140mm wide stainless steel benchtop, this commercial prep fridge accommodates 6 x 1/1 Gastronorm (GN) pans (up to 150mm deep) along its top cold well, combining accessible top pan storage with expansive underbench refrigerated holding.

Designed to excel in demanding high-ambient Australian kitchen environments (rated up to +38°C / 50% RH), the PG210FA-XB utilizes a specialized "Blown Well" cross-flow fan cooling system to maintain consistent food-safe holding temperatures (+1°C to +5°C) across both the top pan well and the lower cabinet. Built from durable food-grade stainless steel, it includes a removable 220mm deep polyethylene (PE) chopping board, clear sliding serving covers, a removable stainless steel tray under the pans to catch food drops, an easy-service cassette cooling system, automatic defrosting, and heavy-duty castors. Operating on a standard single-phase 10 Amp power supply (708W), it is backed by up to 4 years of total warranty coverage upon online product registration.

Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Setup & Placement: Position the prep bench on a flat, level surface and lock the castor brakes. Connect to a dedicated 240V 10A wall outlet and allow the cabinet to cool down to set target temperature (+1°C to +5°C) before loading pre-chilled food.

2. Stocking Top Pans & Airflow Management: Load pre-chilled ingredients (below +5°C) into 1/1 GN pans. Ensure all top pan openings and divider gaps are filled with pans or blanking plates at all times to maintain proper "blown well" cold air circulation.

3. Daily Cleaning & Maintenance: Remove the PE chopping board and stainless steel drop tray under the pans at the end of prep shifts for thorough washing and sanitisation. Wipe down internal cabinet walls and stainless steel surfaces with warm water and a food-safe cleaner.

The unit draws 708W on single-phase 240V power and plugs directly into any standard Australian 10 Amp wall outlet.
