The Beverage-Air SB-031-RA-HC 25-inch self-contained blast chiller is a compact yet powerful solution for commercial kitchens that require rapid cooling, food safety compliance, and space efficiency. Built with a stainless steel exterior and interior, this unit is engineered for durability, sanitation, and long-lasting performance in demanding foodservice environments.
With a chilling capacity of 17.6 lbs. in 90 minutes and a freezing capacity of 11 lbs. in 240 minutes, the SB-031-RA-HC quickly reduces food temperatures to meet safety standards while preserving texture, moisture, and product integrity. It performs blast chilling from 149°F to 50°F in 90 minutes and shock freezing from 149°F to 0°F in 240 minutes. The cabinet includes a one-point core temperature probe that inserts directly into food to accurately monitor internal temperatures during both chilling and freezing cycles.
Operators can select soft or hard blast chilling and soft or hard freezing modes using the intuitive LED controller. A built-in HACCP alarm indicator enhances food safety monitoring and compliance. The stainless steel wire rack structure promotes excellent air circulation, reducing chilling time and ensuring even temperature reduction. Indirect airflow further protects food quality by preventing surface dehydration.
The interior features rounded cell corners for easy cleaning and slot-in stainless steel shelf supports that are adjustable in 1.5" to 3" increments. The unit comes standard with three wire rod tray slides and accommodates up to three GN 1/1 (12" x 20") sheet pans (pans not included). A vertical ergonomic handle and self-closing door with a 100° hold-open position provide convenience during loading and unloading.
Performance is powered by a self-contained refrigeration system using environmentally friendly R290 refrigerant. The copper-aluminum evaporator coil is easily accessible for maintenance and is fitted with a high-flow fan to maximize cooling efficiency. The system also features automatic defrost with self-evaporating defrost water, simplifying maintenance and operation.
Compact, efficient, and designed for professional results, the Beverage-Air SB-031-RA-HC blast chiller delivers dependable temperature control, user-friendly operation, and essential food safety features for restaurants, bakeries, and catering operations.
