The unit delivers a chilling yield of 209 lbs. and a freezing yield of 165 lbs. per cycle under standard test conditions. Operators can choose from hard chilling, soft chilling, blast freezing, continuous, or manual modes to match different product requirements. The ABT-20US features a 7-inch touchscreen control panel with 8 language options, advanced cycle programming, and full HACCP data management via USB.

Each phase can be set by time, room temperature, product temperature, and ventilation speed. This level of control is important for kitchens handling a range of products. For example, a delicate mousse needs a different chilling profile than a braised protein or a dense pastry. Defining each phase ensures every product is chilled at the right rate for its structure. The unit can run cycles by time or by core temperature probe, which is included as standard. When the probe is inserted, the unit automatically switches to probe mode. At the end of each new cycle, the recipe is saved automatically, creating a library of proven programs for future use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e3-Fan Evaporator with Variable Air Speed Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ABT-20US features a 3-fan evaporator system with air speed adjustable from 0.7 to 7 meters per second using the control panel. Variable fan speed lets operators control how much cold air moves across product surfaces during each phase. High air velocity speeds up heat removal for dense or high-mass items. Lower speeds protect delicate surfaces such as glazed pastries, sauces, or plated items from drying or surface damage during chilling. When the door is opened, the fans stop immediately to prevent temperature loss and maintain product quality during loading and unloading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAISI 304 Stainless Steel with 7\" Insulation and Advanced Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the interior and exterior are made from AISI 304 stainless steel.
