The Westlake WK-72F Reach-In Freezer
The Westlake WK-72F is a three-section, top-mounted reach-in freezer with three solid stainless steel doors and nine shelves. Refrigeration rated at 1/4 HP plus 1/4 HP holds the cabinet at -8 °F to 0 °F, so you can dedicate a door each to proteins, fries and appetizers, and desserts and keep all of it hard frozen. It is rated for kitchens that reach 100 °F. At 72.8 in. wide it takes just over six feet of wall and suits an operation that receives frozen product by the pallet layer; it holds frozen stock and is not meant for chilling down hot food. It arrives on brake casters, stands 77.9 in. tall, and runs on 115 V at 6 amps through a NEMA 5-15P plug.
Nine Epoxy Coated Wire Shelves Rated for 90 Pounds Each
Nine epoxy coated steel wire shelves come with the cabinet, and each is rated for 90 lb. That rating matters when you load stacked cases of frozen fries or boxes of portioned proteins instead of a few quart containers. The epoxy coating is there for a cabinet that frosts and defrosts all day, where bare steel wire would rust, and open wire lets moving air pass through the load. Interior space across the three sections measures 68.1 in. wide, 23.2 in. deep, and 57.1 in. high.
Ventilated Refrigeration Holding -8 °F to 0 °F
A precision ventilated refrigeration system moves cold air through the cabinet instead of letting it settle, which keeps the top shelf and the bottom shelf close to the same temperature. Rated at 1/4 HP plus 1/4 HP, it holds -8 °F to 0 °F, cold enough to keep ice cream firm and boxed proteins solid. It is rated to do that in rooms up to 100 °F, which covers a hot kitchen during a Friday rush. The copper coil evaporator carries an anti-corrosion coating that protects the copper in a space that is always damp.
Electronic Control with Automatic Defrost Every 4 Hours
The electronic control lets you adjust the temperature set point and the defrost frequency, with no unmarked dial to guess at. It defrosts automatically every 4 hours, so frost does not build thick enough on the coil to choke airflow. Nobody on your crew has to schedule it or remember it.
Stainless Steel Inside and Out with Self-Closing, Locking Doors
Exterior and interior are both stainless steel, so spills wipe off and the cabinet takes the knocks of a busy kitchen. The three solid doors swing shut on their own when a cook walks away with full hands, and they stay open at 90° while you load a delivery. Each door locks, and keys are included, which is useful overnight or in a shared kitchen. A vertical LED light comes on when a door opens and goes off when it closes.
Top-Access Condenser and R290 Hydrocarbon Refrigerant
The refrigeration system sits on top of the cabinet, above the flour dust and mop water at floor level. A top installation board gives access to the condenser coil for cleaning and service, so brushing the coil is a short job, not a teardown. The refrigerant is R290, a hydrocarbon with zero ozone depletion potential and a global warming potential of 3.
Brake Casters and a NEMA 5-15P Plug
Heavy-duty casters with brakes come preinstalled. Roll the cabinet into place, lock the brakes, and release them when it is time to clean behind it. It measures 72.8 in. wide, 31.5 in. deep, and 77.9 in. high. Power is 115 V, single phase, 60 Hz at 6 amps. Net weight is 456 lb.
