Airflow

The secret to superb temperature control and recovery is carefully considered airflow.

Few factors are more important to the effectiveness of refrigerators, freezers and hot food cabinets than airflow. How quickly your unit can get food to safe temperatures and how quickly your unit recovers the desired temperature – it all comes down to the airflow pattern within the cabinet.

 

Designed to Keep Cold Air Inside

The majority of refrigerator cabinets available in the market falter during the most common of working kitchen activities: when the cabinet doors open, and close. And open and close.  You know from experience that during a busy shift, cabinet doors may be opened multiple times in just minutes - each time introducing warm air from the workspace into the cabinet as cold air from the inside seeps out.

When cold air escapes, the refrigeration system has to get to work re-cooling the cabinet to the set temperature.  Recovery is energy inefficient, hard on your equipment and – most importantly – if it takes too much time, puts your food product at risk.

Traulsen cabinets, on the other hand, are designed with real day-to-day use in mind. The unique airflow pattern in our cabinets is designed to accommodate repeated door opening in hot, busy kitchens, keeping the cold air in the cabinet for as long as possible. Ducting for both supply and return air ensures more balanced, even temperatures throughout the cabinet and supports efficient temperature recovery.

 

R & A Series Refrigerators and Freezers

Traulsen R & A Series refrigerators and freezers feature rear-biased return air ducts located in the top of each unit, reducing heat infiltration, putting less strain on the refrigeration system, maximizing equipment life as well as product shelf life. The result is a fast return to your set temperature, once the doors are closed — all precisely controlled and maintained by Traulsen’s SMART CONTROL to keep food fresh and safe longer, save energy — and allow your kitchen to work smarter.

 

Hot-food Holding Cabinets

Traulsen hot-food holding cabinets include a unique heating system that distributes hot air evenly and effectively throughout the cabinet, eliminating extremely hot or cold pockets. Thanks to a low-watt density serpentine heater, heat is distributed throughout the cabinet to keep food consistently hot and ready to serve to your customers. 

 

Prep Tables

Traulsen Full-Size Prep Tables feature a specially engineered forced-air design, where cold air from the evaporator flows up to the pan rail, circulating around and over food pans. Surrounded by this constant, cool blanket of air, food stays safe and fresh longer, without freezing or drying out. The new TS Full-Size Prep Tables exceed the NSF 7-Certified temperature performance.
