Description
The Thermaster D-GT3 is a 3-tray blast chiller and shock freezer that rapidly reduces cooked food temperatures to safe storage levels — chilling 56 kg from +70°C to +3°C or freezing 38 kg from +70°C to -18°C per cycle. Built to HACCP specification with fan-forced evaporator cooling and a digital controller with core probe, the D-GT3 gives commercial kitchens precise, automated temperature control from a compact 465 mm wide footprint.
Why operators choose the D-GT3
-
HACCP-compliant blast chill and shock freeze — dual operating modes handle both soft chill (+3°C) and deep freeze (-18°C) in a single unit, eliminating the need for separate equipment.
-
56 kg chill / 38 kg freeze per cycle — high throughput capacity for a 3-tray countertop unit, suitable for high-volume prep services.
-
Digital controller with core probe and temperature display — monitors internal food temperature in real time, automatically switching modes when target is reached.
-
Fan-forced evaporator with auto defrost — European condenser and evaporating fans ensure even airflow; self-evaporating drainage and self-closing door reduce maintenance.
-
Stainless steel construction — interior and exterior built for commercial washdown environments; internal designed for easy cleaning.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between blast chilling and shock freezing?
Blast chilling rapidly reduces food temperature to +3°C (safe refrigeration), while shock freezing takes food to -18°C (frozen storage). The D-GT3 performs both functions in one unit, selected via the digital controller.
What tray size does the D-GT3 accept?
The D-GT3 holds 3 x 2/3 GN pans. GN pans are not included and must be sourced separately.
Does the D-GT3 require a plumber or gas connection?
No. The D-GT3 runs on a standard 240V / 10A single-phase outlet with 500W power draw — no gas or dedicated plumbing required.
What does HACCP-compliant mean for a blast chiller?
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) compliance means the unit is designed to move food through the temperature danger zone (60°C to 5°C) within the time limits required by food safety regulations, with a digital log of the cooling cycle for audit purposes.
What warranty does the D-GT3 carry?
The Thermaster D-GT3 is covered by a 2-year parts and labour warranty. For full terms, see our warranty information page.
