Front-Breathing Design

The need for extra clearance is eliminated due to the convenient front-breathing deign, which allows the back and sides of the unit to be placed directly against a wall. This design provides exceptional airflow and helps to save space in your establishment. Plus, operation of the refrigerator is easy, thanks to its special features! Monitor it by consulting the interior wall-mounted thermometer, and use the auto-defrost feature on the pre-programmed digital controller to maintain the refrigerator in tip-top shape. For operation, this unit requires a 115V electrical connection.

Bulk Storage

Its epoxy-coated steel shelf accommodates up to 88 lb., making it well equipped for holding heavy bulk ingredients, from frozen broccoli and cauliflower to frozen pork chops. Plus, the bright LED interior lighting allows users to find what they're looking for with ease.

High-Quality Performance

This freezer ensures optimal performance by operating with a 1/5 hp refrigeration system that circulates R-290 hydrocarbon refrigerant to maintain temperatures from -8 to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. R-290 refrigerant has an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of 0 and a global warming potential (GWP) of 3. The foamed-in-place polyurethane insulation helps to retain cold temperatures, which ensures that all food held in the unit remains at food safe temperatures and ready for preparation or direct service to customers!

Durable Construction

This corrosion-resistant unit is designed for outstanding durability to ensure that it withstands tough, busy kitchen environments. It features a 430 type stainless steel exterior, which provides both strength and a smooth, sleek appearance. The interior, made with 304 type stainless steel, also offers the durability necessary for heavy, regular use.

Smooth Mobility

This unit includes casters for easy mobility.

Helpful Alerts

Audible alarms alert you to temperatures too high or low, extended door opening, and to clean the unit's condenser.

Frequently Asked Questions From Customers

Can I upgrade my Z Series unit to have VersaHub capabilities?
Yes, you may upgrade your Z Series unit to have VersaHub capabilities with VersaTile.
Yes. If optional accessories are added to this product, this product may require additional lead time.
Avantco warrants new equipment sold to food truck customers to be operational for a period of 30 days from the date of delivery if installed and maintained correctly.
This product cannot be shipped to Canada.
To promote proper air flow through your Avantco unit, please ensure that the wire ledges on the shelves are positioned toward the back of the unit. These ledges help keep enough space between your product and the back wall so that cold air can adequately circulate through the cabinet. Incorrectly installing the shelf ledges can restrict airflow, causing the temperature in the bottom of your unit to rise.
Many manufacturers offer their refrigeration equipment in several different height options to best meet your needs. Here's a breakdown of how we classify these different heights:

Counter Height: Work surface is more than 34" high; standard-height unit.

ADA Height: Work surface height is 34" or less; complies with ADA regulations.

Low Profile: Work surface height is less than 32"; designed to fit under most ADA-height counters.

If the unit you are purchasing does not have a flat top, such as a worktop or sandwich/salad prep table, it may affect whether or not it will align with certain countertops. To ensure that the product will meet your needs, please reference the product's literature and specifications.
R-290 (also known as high purity propane or CARE 40) and R-600a (also known as refrigerant grade Isobutane or CARE 10) are hydrocarbon refrigerants. R513a (also known as Opteon XP10) and R-448A (also known as Solstice N40) are HFO (hydrofluoroolefin) refrigerants. They are being used by some manufacturers in response to the EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program.
The units come with casters preassembled underneath the pallet.
This unit’s refrigeration system is located in the lower rear of the cabinet, causing the step in its interior. The step may decrease the inner depth of the cabinet's lower interior versus what is listed as its overall interior depth, so please check the unit’s specs and diagrams to ensure it will accommodate your storage needs.
