Omcan FR-CN-0600 76 In. Chest Freezer with Solid Flat Top, 20 Cu. Ft., R290, Manual Defrost, Hinged Lid

SKU46505 BrandOmcan

The Omcan 46505 Chest Freezer

The Omcan FR-CN-0600 is a 76-inch solid-top chest freezer with 20 cubic feet of frozen storage. This is a workhorse storage freezer for convenience stores, restaurants, catering operations, and any commercial kitchen that needs bulk frozen storage without the premium cost of an upright unit. The solid flat top with hinged lid design lets you stack items on top when the freezer is closed and keeps the lid propped open on its own when you are loading or pulling product, so you do not have to hold it up with one hand while reaching in with the other.

1/2+ HP Compressor with -8 to 5°F Temperature Range

A 1/2+ HP compressor with R290 natural refrigerant holds the interior between -8 and 5 degrees Fahrenheit (-22 to -15 degrees Celsius), cold enough for long-term storage of meats, seafood, frozen prepared foods, and ice cream. A mechanical adjustable thermostat gives you simple, reliable temperature control without the failure points of a digital controller. Manual defrost keeps the design straightforward and avoids the temperature fluctuations that automatic defrost cycles can introduce. You schedule defrosting during off-hours when the freezer is at its emptiest. The unit draws 3.6 amps on a standard 115V circuit with a NEMA 5-15A plug.

White Powder-Coated Steel with 4 Casters

The exterior is durable white powder-coated steel that wipes clean and resists the bumps and scrapes of a commercial environment. The interior is pre-coated steel that handles the moisture and temperature extremes inside a chest freezer. Two hinged doors provide access across the full width, and a built-in lock secures the unit after hours. Two baskets are included for organizing smaller items near the top, and the freezer accepts up to six baskets total (sold separately) for more granular organization. Four casters, two with brakes, let you roll the unit into position and lock it down. A defrost drain simplifies the manual defrost process. Overall dimensions are 76 by 28 by 32.5 inches and the unit weighs 165 pounds.

    The Omcan 46505 Chest Freezer

    About Chest Freezers

    Commercial chest freezers are built for bulk frozen storage. They work in restaurants, delis, catering, and convenience stores. The lid opens from the top. That keeps cold air in when you open it. Chest freezers hold temperature better than uprights. They run at or below zero, day after day. Go big if you need volume. Go small if you need backup storage.

    You can get chest freezers in different sizes and setups. Glass top models let you see what's inside without opening the lid. Good for self-serve or retail. Solid lids work better in the back where you just need storage. Stainless steel is common if you want something tough and easy to clean.

    Capacity is the most important factor when choosing a commercial chest freezer. Models in the 20 to 30 cu ft range cover most foodservice storage needs, while larger units are available for operations that go through significant quantities of frozen product. Choose based on your available floor space, how much frozen product you need to hold, and whether the unit will be used for back-of-house storage or front-of-house display.

    Common Types and Configurations

    • Solid Lid Chest Freezer: The standard configuration for back-of-house frozen storage. A solid insulated lid provides excellent temperature retention and energy efficiency. Best for kitchens and storage areas where display is not needed.
    • Commercial Chest Freezer Glass Top: Features a glass lid that allows customers or staff to see stored product without opening the unit. Common in convenience stores, delis, and retail foodservice settings where frozen items are displayed for self-serve access.
    • Commercial Display Chest Freezer: Designed for front-of-house use with a glass lid and interior lighting to showcase frozen products. Used in retail foodservice, grab-and-go stations, and convenience store environments.
    • Large Commercial Chest Freezer: High-capacity units for operations that need to store significant quantities of frozen product. Available in sizes up to and beyond 30 cu ft for high-volume foodservice and catering use.
    • Compact Commercial Chest Freezer: Smaller units for secondary storage areas, food trucks, or operations with limited floor space that still need reliable below-zero frozen storage.

    What to Look at Before You Buy

    • Capacity: Pick a size that fits what you actually store. 20 to 30 cubic feet covers most kitchens. If you use a lot, get a bigger unit or more than one.
    • Lid Type: Solid lids insulate better. Use them in the back. Glass tops are for display or self-serve.
    • Interior Organization: Get baskets or dividers if you want to keep things sorted. Chest freezers get messy fast without them.
    • Temperature Range: Make sure it holds 0°F or below, even when full. If it sits in a hot room, check the ambient rating.
    • Footprint and Placement: Chest freezers use more floor space than uprights. Measure first. Make sure the lid can open all the way.
    • Energy Efficiency: Chest freezers waste less cold air than uprights. Good insulation keeps your costs down.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a commercial chest freezer?

    A commercial chest freezer opens from the top. It holds bulk frozen product for restaurants, delis, and stores. The top lid keeps cold air in. That makes it more efficient than an upright. Use one if you need to keep a lot of product frozen at 0°F or below.

    What size commercial chest freezer do I need?

    Figure out how much you need to store and how often you restock. Most kitchens use 20 to 30 cubic feet. If you move a lot of frozen product, get a bigger unit or more than one. Measure your space. Chest freezers need more floor area than uprights. Make sure the lid can open all the way.

    What is the difference between a chest freezer and an upright freezer?

    Chest freezers open from the top. You get one big compartment. Uprights open from the front and have shelves. Chest freezers hold cold better. Uprights are easier to organize and use less floor space, but they lose cold air faster when you open the door.
