The Omcan 50070 Refrigerated Chef Base
The Omcan RE-CN-0036-C is a 36-inch refrigerated chef base built to support heavy countertop cooking equipment while keeping prepped ingredients cold and within arm's reach. With 5.7 cubic feet of refrigerated storage and a temperature range of 33 to 41°F, this unit keeps proteins, sauces, and garnishes at safe holding temperatures right below your cooking line. The reinforced "V" edge stainless steel top is drip-resistant, so spills from above roll to the edges instead of pooling under your equipment.
304 Stainless Steel Construction with Rounded Corners
Both the interior and exterior are fabricated from 304 stainless steel, a grade that resists corrosion from acidic foods, cleaning chemicals, and the constant moisture of a busy kitchen. The interior corners are rounded rather than squared off, which eliminates the crevices where food debris and bacteria tend to collect. Wiping down at the end of a shift takes seconds instead of minutes scrubbing at seams. The aluminum back panel keeps the unit lightweight while still providing solid insulation.
2-Drawer Storage with Heavy-Duty Hardware
The 2 drawers ride on heavy-duty tracks with commercial-grade rollers and reinforced pulls, so they glide smoothly even when loaded with full GN pans. (1) full size 12"x20"x4" + (3) 1/6 size 6"x6"x4" GN pans Each drawer stays on track shift after shift, even when line cooks are pulling them open dozens of times during a rush. The accessible condenser coil makes routine cleaning straightforward, which keeps the compressor running efficiently and extends the life of the unit.
A 1/6 HP compressor running on R290 refrigerant provides reliable cooling on a standard 110V/15A circuit, drawing just 2.1 amps. Four heavy-duty casters let you roll the base into position under a griddle, charbroiler, or salamander, then lock it in place for service. At 154 pounds, it is substantial enough to anchor heavy equipment without shifting during use.
