Description
The Thermaster PWB180 is a three-door pizza prep bar fridge that keeps a full suite of toppings at serving temperature while giving kitchen teams a clean, organised prep surface across a generous 1800 mm footprint.
Why operators choose the PWB180
-
9 × 1/3 GN pan top rail — tilted pans with easy-slide Perspex covers keep ingredients cool, covered, and within easy reach during high-volume service runs.
-
Embraco compressor & German EBM-Pabst fans — proven refrigeration components deliver reliable 2–8°C performance even in kitchens operating at 38°C ambient.
-
Dixell digital temperature control — precise read-out and adjustment directly on the front panel, so kitchen teams stay on top of cold-chain compliance during service.
-
475 L gross volume — three doors and a shelf-plus-floor interior provide ample undercounter storage for prep mise en place in high-throughput venues.
-
Auto defrost & self-evaporating drainage — minimal daily maintenance; rounded internal corners speed clean-down between shifts.
-
Stainless steel construction on castors — mobile, durable, and built to commercial kitchen demands; CFC and HCFC-free insulation throughout.

Frequently asked questions
Are the GN pans included with the PWB180?
No — the PWB180 does not include GN pans. The unit accommodates 9 × 1/3 × 150 mm GN pans; these can be sourced separately to suit your topping layout.
Do the pan covers need to be in place during operation?
Yes — the sliding Perspex pan covers must be in use for the unit to maintain its rated 2–8°C operating temperature. Open covers allow warm kitchen air to enter the pan rail and compromise holding temperature.
Can the PWB180 be used as a sandwich prep fridge as well as a pizza station?
Yes. The unit is a multi-purpose prep bar fridge suitable for pizza, sandwich, and salad service. Product must be pre-chilled to below 5°C before placing in the top rail, as the rail is a holding station, not a primary chilling unit.
What is the warranty on the Thermaster PWB180?
The PWB180 carries a 2-year parts and labour warranty, extendable to a further 2 years parts only with product registration within 14 days of invoice — up to 48 months total coverage with registration.
What temperature range does the PWB180 maintain?
The PWB180 operates at 2 to 8°C and is rated for ambient conditions up to 38°C at 60% relative humidity, making it suitable for demanding commercial kitchen environments.
