The Excellence Industries KAC-4S Vertical Open Air Merchandiser
The Excellence Industries KAC-4S is the slim 27 5/8 inch deep version of the 51 3/4 inch wide KAC merchandiser, holding 18.6 cubic feet of chilled product where aisle width matters more than shelf depth. The shallower wall keeps a corridor walkable while still selling grab-and-go with no doors in the way.
Open Air Curtain Selling with No Doors
A refrigerated air curtain washes down the open face, holding the display at +30°F to +44°F while customers reach straight in for sandwiches, salads, drinks, and dairy. Compare that with a glass door case: every door swing is a pause, a handle to touch, and a fog-up after it closes. Open air removes all three, which is why grab-and-go sections that switch to air curtain cases sell faster at lunch. Four adjustable shelves over the base deck respace in minutes as the mix shifts.
Night Curtain That Cuts Overnight Energy
The standard night curtain pulls down over the open face after close, trapping the cold that an open case would otherwise spill into the room all night. You get the fast-selling open face during business hours and something close to closed-case efficiency after hours, without paying for motorized shutters. The cabinet complies with 2017 DOE energy standards for commercial coolers.
Dixell Controller with Auto Defrost
A Dixell electronic controller manages the case, giving your staff a digital readout to verify at a glance and your service tech a diagnostic platform they already know. Auto defrost clears the coil on schedule with no manual ritual, so the case holds its temperature through the week without anyone thinking about it.
Copper Finned Coils and LED Shelf Lighting
Both the evaporator and the condenser are copper finned, which transfers heat better than bare aluminum coils and resists the corrosion that thins cheaper fins over years of condensate. LED strips light the top and every shelf, so the bottom row sells as well as the one at eye level. The refrigeration runs on 115 volt single phase power with a 1 1/8 HP compressor, drawing 19.3 running amps, so give the case its own circuit rather than a shared one. The black exterior reads clean in any decor, and custom graphics are available when the case should carry a brand.
