Description
The Thermaster CBR2-3 is a 265-litre Flexdrawer counter refrigerator that gives commercial kitchens a space-saving under-bench storage solution with switchable fridge-to-freezer drawers — all in a single stainless steel unit on heavy-duty castors.
Why operators choose the CBR2-3
-
Dual temperature zones — each drawer switches independently between fridge (+2 to +8 °C) and freezer (−22 to −18 °C) at the touch of a button, eliminating the need for two separate units.
-
GN1/1 pan compatibility — 150 mm deep GN1/1 pans sit flat in each drawer, maximising usable storage for prep containers and raw ingredients.
-
Natural R290 refrigerant — low global-warming-potential refrigerant with automatic hot-gas defrost keeps running costs down and supports green kitchen credentials.
-
Worktop surface ready — flat stainless steel top provides an additional work surface above the unit, making full use of every square centimetre of kitchen real estate.
-
Low-maintenance design — magnetic gaskets replace tool-free, LED temperature display, and 90 mm heavy-duty front-locking castors allow easy repositioning during cleaning.

Frequently asked questions
Can each drawer be set to a different temperature?
Yes. Each drawer on the CBR2-3 can be independently switched between fridge (+2 to +8 °C) and freezer (−22 to −18 °C) mode, giving you dual temperature zones in one under-bench unit.
What pan size fits in the CBR2-3 drawers?
The CBR2-3 is designed for GN1/1 pans up to 150 mm deep, allowing standard gastronorm containers to slide in and out without adapters.
What refrigerant does the CBR2-3 use?
It uses R290, a natural hydrocarbon refrigerant with a very low global-warming potential. Defrost is handled automatically via a hot-gas defrost cycle.
Does the unit need a dedicated power circuit?
No. The CBR2-3 runs on a standard single-phase 230V/500W supply, the same as most household and light-commercial outlets in Australia.
What warranty does the Thermaster CBR2-3 carry?
The unit carries a 2-year Parts & Labour warranty plus an additional 2 years of Parts Only coverage — but product registration within 14 days of the invoice date is required to activate the full warranty.
