Open Front Deli Case for Fresh Meat, Self-Contained, Low Velocity Forced Air","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Hydra-Kool KFM-OF-50-S is a 52-inch open-front deli case built for self-serve fresh meat sections. At 8.00 cubic feet of front display volume, this mid-size model handles a wider selection of pre-wrapped cuts and packaged meat products than the 40-inch version while still fitting standard aisle layouts. The open front eliminates the need for counter staff to retrieve items, which speeds up customer flow and reduces labor costs in operations where packaged meat is the primary format. Low velocity forced air refrigeration holds product between 33 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit at the elevated humidity that keeps packaged meat looking fresh on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch3\u003eLow Velocity Forced Air Cooling for Self-Serve Meat Display\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe open-front design lets customers pick up packaged meat products directly, which works well for pre-wrapped steaks, ground meat, marinated portions, and value packs where you want high turnover without staff handling every transaction. The refrigeration system uses low velocity forced air to hold product between 33 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit while maintaining elevated humidity. Low air velocity is what makes this case suitable for fresh meat rather than just deli items: it reduces surface drying and discoloration on exposed packaging, keeping products looking fresh longer. Temperature and defrost cycles are managed by a digital controller, and a separate digital thermometer provides an at-a-glance reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe self-contained condensing unit slides out from the base for service access, so routine maintenance does not require moving the case. A removable condensate evaporating pan sits below the unit for easy cleaning. The cases use R404a refrigerant and are engineered to operate in environments up to 75 degrees Fahrenheit and 55 percent relative humidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch3\u003eLow Profile Open-Front Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eStanding just 33-1\/2 inches high, the open-front profile puts product at a natural browsing height for customers and keeps sightlines clear across the sales floor. Without the glass canopy and rear doors found on service-style cases, this design trades counter-service functionality for faster customer throughput and lower staff requirements. Tempered front and side glass panels provide product protection while keeping the display accessible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe interior uses PVC-coated steel in gray for easy wipe-down cleaning, and a stainless steel rear work bench provides a prep surface behind the display. The exterior features a silver PVC-coated steel front panel with foamed polystyrene black end panels and a black steel kick plate. The multiplexible frame lets you connect additional cases end to end for longer runs. Standard leveling feet keep the unit stable, with optional casters (adding 4-3\/8 inches to height) or adjustable stainless steel legs (5-1\/8 to 7-5\/8 inches) available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe KFM-OF-50-S measures 52.2 inches long (including two 1-1\/2 inch end panels) by 43-3\/8 inches deep by 33-1\/2 inches high. The self-contained compressor draws 1\/2 HP at 9.6 amps, with lights, fans, and heaters at 0.65 amps and the evaporator pan at 3.3 amps for a total of 13.58 amps on a 5-15P plug. Net weight is 322 lbs and shipping weight is 505 lbs. The unit ships in a crate measuring 59 by 44 by 42 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hydra-Kool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51058217943325,"sku":"KFM-OF-50-S","price":9690.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/39591_hydra-kool-KFM-KPM-OF.jpg?v=1773917612","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/hydra-kool-kfm-of-50-s-52-in-open-front-deli-case-for-fresh-meat-self-contained-low-velocity-forced-air","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
