The Omcan 46503 Chest Freezer
The Omcan FR-CN-0282 is a 44-inch chest freezer with a solid flat top and 10 cubic feet of storage, designed for convenience stores, ice cream shops, supermarkets, and restaurants that need bulk frozen storage in a compact, accessible format. The hinged lid stays open on its own while you load or retrieve items, so your staff can use both hands to organize product without propping the door. The temperature range of -8 to 5°F covers everything from deep-freeze ice cream storage to slightly warmer frozen food holding.
R600 Refrigerant with Manual Defrost
The unit uses R600 (isobutane) refrigerant, a natural hydrocarbon with low environmental impact and efficient cooling performance. The 1/4 HP compressor draws only 2.2A on a standard 115V/60Hz circuit with a NEMA 5-15A plug, keeping energy costs manageable for a freezer this size. Manual defrost means there are no automatic defrost cycles that temporarily raise the cabinet temperature, which is better for maintaining consistent frozen product quality. A defrost drain simplifies the manual defrost process when it is time to clean the unit. Cyclopentane foaming insulation in the walls provides excellent thermal retention while meeting current environmental standards.
Embossed Aluminum Interior with Basket Storage
The interior walls are embossed aluminum, which resists frost buildup and cleans easily when you defrost. One wire basket is included, and the freezer fits a maximum of four baskets (sold separately) for organizing different product categories in layers. The durable white powder-coated steel exterior handles the daily use of a commercial environment, and a mechanical adjustable thermostat gives you simple, reliable temperature control without electronic components that can fail. Two front rollers and two rear adjustable feet let you position the unit precisely and level it on uneven floors.
