The Beverage-Air RBS-162-SA-HC 33-inch reach-in blast chiller is built for high-volume commercial kitchens that require powerful chilling capacity, precise control, and uncompromising food safety. With an impressive chilling capacity of 140 lbs. and a freezing capacity of 100 lbs. per cycle, this self-contained unit rapidly reduces food temperatures to meet HACCP standards while preserving texture, flavor, and product integrity.
Constructed with a stainless steel exterior and interior, the cabinet offers durability and easy sanitation in demanding foodservice environments. The die-formed interior floor features rounded corners and a central drain for simplified cleaning. Anti-condensation perimeter heating around the door opening enhances reliability, while the ergonomic vertical stainless steel handle and self-closing door with a 100-degree hold-open stop provide ease of use. Snap-in magnetic gaskets ensure a secure seal, and stainless steel feet add stability.
The RBS-162-SA-HC delivers both soft and hard blast chilling and shock freezing cycles, controlled by time or core temperature probe. It can chill products from 194°F to 37°F in 90 minutes or shock freeze from 194°F to 0°F in 240 minutes. A high-precision heated multi-sensor core probe comes standard, with automatic recognition and a dedicated heater button for accurate readings. The evaporator is fitted with a high-flow fan for maximum cooling efficiency, and indirect airflow protects product quality by ensuring even temperature reduction.
An advanced control system features an LCD illuminated temperature display, multi-point sensor temperature display button, HACCP alarm display button, pre-cooling cycle button, adjustable evaporator fan speed control, timed manual defrost button, and real-time clock. The onboard recipe book includes 68 preset programs, with 99 additional memory positions for customized applications. Infinity mode allows adjustable set points for specialized processes, and the unit automatically enters conservation mode at the end of each cycle. A USB data recorder supports temperature logging and compliance documentation.
The unit comes standard with sixteen wire rod tray slides to accommodate high production demands. Its self-contained refrigeration system uses environmentally friendly R290 refrigerant to meet modern environmental standards. Manual defrosting with the door open on a timed cycle provides additional flexibility.
