7. Operating description
7.1. Load Display Case
Load the display case with pre-chilled product from the rear doors. You can place the goods on the
glass shelves and on the base decks. VIENNA Air Screen models have a deep well with height
adjustable base decks.
You can also use different Gastronorm containers with a choice of additionally divisional bars. This
offers you a wide range of ways to display your merchandise. Beverages, trays and GN containers
can be placed side by side in one refrigerated display case at same time!
The display case is designed to maintain the temperature of pre-chilled product.
This refrigerated unit is not a refrigerator, and consequently, if warm product is introduced,
there could be a considerable delay before the operating temperature falls to the normal
operating level.
7.2. Loading Restrictions
It is important to leave adequate free space for the refrigerated air to circulate within the display
case.
Products should be kept clear of the shaded areas, shown in the picture.
A minimum clearance of 1 ½” should be maintained below the light fittings and air plenums.
The air openings at the front and rear of the display case must never be blocked.
The presented goods are refrigerated with
cold air.
This air curtain is forced by fans which suck
the air via air louvers at the front (1) into the
Evaporator (2).
In this area below the base decks the air is
chilled and blown up through the air
plenums at the rear (3) into the display
case.
All these components are designed to have
an even distribution of chilled air in the
whole display case to guarantee constant
temperature.
The VIAS and VICD Displays come with a
deep well and are equipped with base
decks, which are adjustable in height.
Additionally you can use different Hotel
pans. Therefore additionally adapter bars
are available.
This offers you a wide range of application
presenting your goods.
