Description
The Thermaster SLB180 is a three-door sandwich and salad prep bar fridge that keeps fresh ingredients chilled and service-ready at the pass. Designed for busy commercial kitchens, it combines a cross-flow blown-well pan section with a full-volume underbench storage compartment, giving operators maximum prep efficiency in a 1800 mm footprint.
Why operators choose the SLB180
-
Reliable +2 to +8°C holding — fan-forced evaporator cooling with digital temperature control keeps ingredients in the safe zone throughout a full service.
-
Secop compressor & German EBM-Pabst fans — commercial-grade components chosen for durability and quiet, consistent performance in high-ambient environments.
-
Cross-flow pan cooling with blown well — active airflow across the pan section maintains temperature without drying out produce; pan lid included to ensure correct operating temperature.
-
PE cutting board included — a polyethylene cutting board ships in the box, so the unit is prep-ready straight from delivery.
-
Auto defrost & self-evaporating drainage — reduces manual maintenance during service; rounded internal corners make end-of-day cleaning fast.

Frequently asked questions
Do pans come included with the SLB180? No — the SLB180 ships with a PE cutting board and pan lid, but GN pans are not included. Pan lids must be used during operation to ensure the correct holding temperature is maintained.
Does the unit require pre-chilling of ingredients? Yes — the top section is a holding unit, not a blast chiller. Ingredients must be pre-chilled to below 5°C before loading into the pan section to remain within safe holding temperature.
What voltage supply does the SLB180 require? The unit runs on a standard 240V single-phase supply drawing 390W, making it suitable for a regular Australian commercial power outlet without special wiring.
What warranty does the SLB180 carry? The SLB180 is covered by 2 Years Parts and Labour plus an additional 2 Years Parts Only, provided the product is registered within 14 days of the invoice date.
Is the SLB180 suitable for high-ambient kitchen environments? Yes — the unit is rated for ambient operation up to 38°C at 60% relative humidity, making it appropriate for commercial kitchen environments without air conditioning.
