Description
The VMAX High Visibility Island Freezer 2.7M is the larger model in the VMAX island freezer range — a commercial chest freezer delivering 915L net capacity across a 2730mm wide floor-standing island format. LOW-E glass lids across the full width provide unobstructed top-down product visibility while minimising energy loss during customer access, and the dual R290 refrigerant circuit — two independent compressor and condenser loops — maintains a consistent below -18°C product temperature from one end of the 2730mm cabinet to the other. A 10-section internal divider organises the cabinet interior for a comprehensive frozen food range, and CAREL digital temperature control with a digital thermometer display gives staff clear, real-time temperature monitoring throughout the trading day.
2.7 Metres of Frozen Display — Cooled from Both Ends
A 2730mm island freezer is a substantial piece of commercial refrigeration equipment, and the quality of its cooling system matters in proportion to its size. A single-circuit cabinet of this length will inevitably develop temperature variation between the compressor end and the far end — a problem that worsens under high ambient temperatures or heavy customer use. The VMAX 2.7M addresses this directly with its dual R290 circuit: two independent refrigerant loops, each cooling half the cabinet from a separate compressor, mean that temperature is maintained evenly across the full 2730mm regardless of load or ambient conditions. The LOW-E glass lid specification compounds this advantage — low-emissivity glass substantially reduces the radiant heat transfer through the lid surface that a standard glass lid allows, meaning the cabinet works less hard to recover temperature after each lid opening. Together, these two specifications deliver a cabinet that maintains product quality more consistently, uses less energy per litre of capacity and supports compliance with food safety temperature requirements throughout the trading day.
