Everest EOTP3 71 In. Open Top Prep Table, 3 Solid Doors, 19 Cu. Ft., (30) Lidded 1/6 Size Pans, Removable Insulated Top Lid

The Everest EOTP3 is the three door flagship of Everest's EOTP Series of open top prep tables, built for the buffet line, topping dispensary, or prep station where several people work the well at once and the whole spread has to stay reachable from above. Its mega top pan well sits open and flush with the worktop, lining up thirty 1/6 size pans, each with its own lid, in three rows across a 66 7/8 inch pan area, the most pan capacity in the line, while three solid stainless steel doors below close over 19 cubic feet of backup stock split into three shelved sections. Factory sneeze guard and tray slide options turn the same cabinet into a 72 inch serving line, and the 1/3 HP condensing cartridge breathes from the front so even this 71 1/8 inch cabinet works flush against a wall.

Back Mounted Blizzard R290 Cartridge that Swaps without On-Site Brazing

The condensing unit is a back mounted, self-contained Blizzard R290 cartridge that is fully detachable and replaceable in the field with no on-site brazing. Unlike a conventional sealed system repair that can park a prep table out of service while a tech opens the refrigerant circuit, a cartridge swap gets the station back to work the same visit. The cartridge runs natural R290 refrigerant with zero ozone depletion potential and a global warming potential of three, and the unit arrives pre-wired and ready to plug in on a standard 115V circuit.

Electronically commutated fan motors pull the cabinet down to temperature quickly while drawing less power, and a full-length air duct keeps cold air circulating through the whole unit. The auto defrost cycle starts on a timer and ends on temperature, so it runs only as long as the coil needs. A self-maintaining condensate pan needs no external drain line or electric heater, the auto-reverse condenser fan supports compressor ventilation and helps keep the condenser coil clean, and pressure relief devices let staff re-open a just-closed door instead of waiting out the vacuum.

Thirty Lidded 1/6 Size Pans in an Open Top Under a Removable 1/2 In. Insulated Lid

The top is what separates this table from a lidded sandwich rail: the mega top pan well sits open and flush with the worktop, fitting three rows of polycarbonate pans, 6 inches deep and each with its own lid, laid out as thirty 1/6 size pans across a 66 7/8 inch wide pan area per the storage table and plan view, enough wells to keep a full lineup loaded with backups already staged in the well. With no hood or hinged cover above the well, staff reach any pan from any angle and swap an empty without lifting anything first, while the per-pan lids guard whatever is not in active use. Cold air from the same full-length duct that chills the base circulates through the open pan area, and between services removable 1/2 inch thick foam insulated top lids drop over the well to keep the pan area cold and stop moisture build-up. The worktop and top lids are 16 gauge stainless steel, and a vented stainless steel panel between the pan area and the cabinet below catches food debris before it reaches stored product.

Three Solid Stainless Steel Doors over a 19 Cu. Ft. Open Interior

The three 22 3/4 inch wide doors are heavy duty stainless steel inside and out, filled with the same 2.5 inch high density polyurethane insulation as the cabinet walls, and each swings inside a 52 3/4 inch total depth when open, so three people can each have their own section without crossing reach. Each door self-closes through an adjustable torsion system for a positive seal, the snap-in magnetic gaskets pop out for cleaning or replacement without tools, frame heaters stop exterior moisture build up in humid kitchens, and the recessed handles stay out of the walkway. Inside is one open compartment with no walls between sections, three epoxy coated steel wire shelves, one per section, riding on height adjustable stainless steel clips, heavy duty stainless steel walls with rounded corners, and a galvanized steel bottom. On its four 5 inch swivel casters with locks on the front set, the open top sits at a counter-friendly 32 3/4 inches and the unit stands 37 3/4 inches with the insulated top lids in place, so it rolls out for cleaning and locks in place during service.

Digital Controller that Holds 33°F to 54°F with an Overheat Alarm

A multi-function digital controller with an easy to read LED display ships factory preset at 35°F and adjusts anywhere from 33°F to 54°F. An audible overheat alarm watches the compressor and condenser coil and sounds before a developing problem turns into lost product. Everest backs the unit with 3 year parts and labor, 5 year electrical, and 10 year compressor coverage, supported through its service agent network.

If the stock setup does not match your station, Everest offers a 9 1/8 inch deep removable cutting board sized for this cabinet, a 72 inch sneeze guard and 72 inch tray slide that set the table up as a self-serve or cafeteria line, a stainless steel double overshelf that adds two raised 71 by 13.5 inch shelves and 31 inches of height, additional shelving for the cabinet, a 3 inch caster assembly in place of the standard 5 inch set, and height adjustable interchangeable legs from 3.5 to 6 inches.

Keep in mind this is a refrigerator-only table holding 33°F to 54°F, so it will not carry frozen product. The open top also means no built-in cutting board and no hinged insulated lid; if your station builds sandwiches on a board under a closed rail, Everest's EPB mega top sandwich tables pair the same three-row pan capacity with a cutting board and hood on the same base, and a single-cook station rarely needs thirty wells, so the 48 inch and narrower tables in this EOTP line are usually the better fit there. The worktop sits at 32 3/4 inches, a few inches lower than Everest's sandwich tables, and the cabinet needs 52 3/4 inches of depth when a door swings open. Power is a standard 115V connection drawing 3 amps on a 9 foot cord with a NEMA 5-15P plug, so no dedicated circuit is needed.
