It features a stainless cover for the refrigerated area and utilizes a “cold wall” heat transfer system, eliminating the need for air cooling. The interior cabinet is fully lined with stainless steel, while the exterior shell is also constructed from stainless steel, ensuring a strong and easy-to-clean surface. Additionally, it is equipped with plastic non-scratch feet for stability and protection on countertops. This prep station includes 1/6-size, 69-deep stainless pans with covers and stainless pan supports, facilitating organized and accessible food storage. An electronic thermostat with an external digital LED display allows precise temperature control, enhancing food safety. The self-contained capillary tube system employs CFC-free refrigerant (R290), making it an environmentally responsible choice. It has been tested to meet NSF Standard 7 requirements for open food storage. It is important to note that the ACP63 does not include a defrost system, as it is classified as an “in-service” item; therefore, it must be turned off for defrosting.
