Description
The Thermaster PG180FA-XG is a refrigerated cold bain marie and salad/noodle bar that keeps prepared ingredients at safe serving temperatures of +1 to +5°C, with a tempered glass canopy, clear sliding serving doors, and a 5x 1/1 GN pan capacity — purpose-built for busy commercial kitchens, deli counters, and hospitality prep stations.
Why operators choose the PG180FA-XG
-
Full 800 L gross volume — accommodates 5x full-size 1/1 GN pans up to 150mm deep, giving prep-line operators generous ingredient capacity without compromising accessibility.
-
Cross-flow "blown well" fan cooling — the cassette cooling system circulates cold air evenly across all GN positions, eliminating hot spots and keeping every pan within the +1 to +5°C safe-hold range.
-
Auto defrost with separate control button — automatic condensation evaporation and a dedicated defrost control reduce daily maintenance without interrupting service.
-
Tempered glass canopy with clear sliding doors — the serving area has sliding glass doors for easy access while the canopy protects ingredients from ambient contamination; LED lighting illuminates the display for customer-facing applications.
-
Mobile and easy to clean — castors allow repositioning without tools; the all-stainless-steel body and streamlined exterior surfaces speed sanitising between services.
