The Omcan 41454 Blast Chiller
The Omcan BC-CN-0003 is the most compact unit in the series, holding three GN 1/2 pans in a countertop footprint just 25 inches wide and 19 inches tall. It is built for small kitchens, satellite prep stations, or dessert lines where you need HACCP-compliant rapid cooling without dedicating floor space to a full-size chiller. The 300W system is right-sized for the smaller cavity, so you get fast chill times on partial batches without wasting energy cooling empty space.
Rapid Chill and Freeze Cycles with Membrane Control
The BC-CN-0003 runs two core cycles: a blast chill that drops cooked food from 194°F down to 37.4°F in 90 minutes, and a shock freeze cycle that takes it all the way to -0.4°F in 240 minutes. Both cycles meet HACCP guidelines for safe rapid cooling. A membrane switch panel on the front gives you direct access to cycle selection, temperature readout, and timer settings without any complicated menu navigation. When a cycle finishes, the unit holds at its target temperature so you are not racing back to unload pans the moment the timer beeps.
Cyclopentane Insulation and R290 Refrigerant
Cyclopentane foam fills the cabinet walls, providing high thermal resistance that keeps the compressor from overworking during long freeze cycles. The R290 refrigerant has a low global warming potential compared to older HFC blends, and its thermodynamic efficiency means the system pulls temperature down faster per watt consumed. For a kitchen that runs multiple blast chill cycles per shift, that translates into lower utility costs and less compressor wear over the life of the unit.
