DESCRIPTION

ASU Series Product Video

Experience a meal tray makeline with better efficiency and a higher level of food safety than ever before with the ASU-10. This Refrigerated Mobile Air Screen delivers an industry leading 4 hour open-door operation window, giving quick and easy access to fast-moving food products in the safest manner possible. Despite being a powerhouse for door-open performance, the ASU-10 manages to exceed the stringent DOE (Dept. of Energy) standards for commercial refrigeration.

Operators need a workhorse to handle their longest, most hectic meal periods. The ASU-10 manages elongated operation times and provides low and no-touch access to food items where food safety is an absolute requirement. Premium features such as 3" thick insulation, an enlarged evap-coil with hydrophobic coating, and a sensor-based defrost system provide better performance and longer open-door operation time.

The ASU-10 is built with a unique tray slide design that holds 10 pairs of trays and pans by the bottom with a built-in tilt feature. The under-tray slide supports are designed to support heavier food items without sagging or buckling under the weight. The tilt feature allows cans or bottles to roll to the front of the unit for easy access. Tray slides are easily removable for thorough interior cleaning during regular maintenance.

Maneuverability is easy with 6" Heavy Duty Casters, a rear-mounted stainless-steel push bar handle, and flush recessed side hand grips to fit the ASU-10 into compact spaces. These features, combined with a full 270° Door Swing and optional Sliding Space-Saver Door, make this unit a must-have for operations with limited space.

ASU-10 Key Features
-The ASU-10 has a maximum allowable 240-minute door open before operator warning and automatic shutdown.

- Intuitive, eye-level control panel for easily adjusting and monitoring temperature.

-Advanced Digital Controls for temperature set points, actual temperature indicator, clean condenser reminder, and door open alarm.

-Equipped with (10) tray slides, with tilt mount feature, that are removable for easy cleaning.

-Rear mounted Push Bar Handle, Flush Recessed Side Grips, and 6" Heavy Duty Casters make maneuvering this unit within tight spaces simple and easy

-Energy efficient by utilizing plasticized evaporator fin coils and an advanced condensate evaporator system to exceed DOE energy requirements.
