Description
The FED-X XCB-48 is a refrigerated chef base drawer fridge designed to sit beneath commercial cooking equipment and keep cold ingredients at the cook's fingertips. With 263 litres of refrigerated capacity across two full-width drawers, it maintains a consistent -1 to +5°C working temperature and is tropicalised for Australian kitchen conditions.
Why operators choose the XCB-48
-
2-drawer cold storage below the cookline — each drawer holds GN pans (sold separately), keeping prep ingredients within arm's reach of the chef without leaving the station.
-
Tropicalised for AU conditions — rated to 32°C ambient at 65% RH, so it performs in hot, high-humidity commercial kitchens without hunting or cycling off.
-
Fan-forced evaporator cooling — rapid recovery rate after door openings keeps product temperature stable during service.
-
Austrian Fulterer drawer runners — heavy-duty, smooth-glide runners built for repeated daily use; removable drawer gaskets simplify cleaning and maintenance.
-
Stainless steel interior & exterior with rounded corners — hygienic, wipe-clean surfaces throughout; 60mm HFC/CFC-free foam insulation in the body.
