The Hydra-Kool KGL-CH-60-S Open Air Merchandiser
The Hydra-Kool KGL-CH-60-S is the largest model in the KGL-CH series, spanning 60 inches wide with 8.58 cubic feet of display capacity across two fixed tiers and a deck. At five feet wide, this case gives you a full deli or bakery counter's worth of grab-and-go display in a single unit. The low 42.91-inch height keeps the top of the case below eye level for most customers, maintaining open sight lines across the sales floor while still providing three full tiers of merchandising space.
Multiplexible Design with Fixed Two-Tier Display
The KGL-CH is built to be multiplexible, meaning you can join multiple units side by side to create a longer merchandising run without leaving gaps between cases. Two fixed tiers and a deck give you three levels of product display, all front-loading for quick restocking from the sales floor side. Tempered glass side panels let customers see your product from every angle while protecting the display cavity from cross-aisle drafts.
At just under 43 inches tall, the KGL-CH sits low enough to double as a counter-height display. Staff and customers can see over the top, which keeps sight lines open across the store. The compact depth of 36.55 inches means the case fits against walls or in island configurations without eating into aisle space. You can choose between a black or white exterior finish, and wood laminate covered end panels give the case a warmer look than standard all-metal construction.
Forced Air Cooling with Digital Control
Forced air refrigeration holds the display cavity between 36 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit, circulating cold air evenly across all three display levels so product temperature stays consistent from the top tier to the deck. A digital controller manages temperature and defrost cycles automatically, and you can verify conditions at a glance without opening the case. The self-contained condensing unit slides out for service access, and a removable condensate evaporating pan makes routine cleanup straightforward.
CFC-free injected foam insulation lines the cabinet walls, and the PVC-coated steel gray interior resists staining and wipes down easily between restocks. LED lighting in the canopy and under all shelves illuminates product from above and below, keeping colors true and labels easy to read while adding minimal heat to the display cavity. The cases use R404a refrigerant and are engineered for environments up to 75 degrees Fahrenheit and 55 percent relative humidity.
The KGL-CH-60-S measures 59.69 inches wide by 36.55 inches deep by 42.91 inches high. The self-contained compressor draws 3/4 HP at 16 amps with 24 total amps and is hard-wired (no plug). Net weight is 496 lbs and shipping weight is 585 lbs. The unit ships in a crate measuring 65.19 by 41.14 by 54.92 inches. Standard leveling feet are included, with optional adjustable stainless steel legs (5-1/8 to 7-5/8 inches) or casters (adding 4-3/8 inches to height) available.
