FEATURES

Agency Approvals
Energy Star - Most consumers have come to recognize the mark of ENERGY STAR, an agency supported by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy, on residential products.
The organization also offers its certification to commercial pieces, still indicating the potential for energy savings below the baseline for that type of equipment. Participation in ENERGY STAR is voluntary for manufacturers and products submitted for certification must go through testing before the seal is given.

Products carrying the Energy Star service mark generally use 20-30% less energy than required by federal standards.
NSF - NSF International (formerly known as the National Sanitation Foundation) is an independent, non-profit organization that certifies food service equipment and ensures it is designed and constructed in a way that promotes food safety. FWE products that meet these standards bear the NSF mark.
You may also see a designation that a product meets NSF/ANSI, which adds rules from the American National Standards Institute to the testing. ANSI works closely with NSF to develop its food safety standards and complete testing to those.
CUL - C-UL mark indicates a product meets the CSA testing standards for Canada.
C-UL-US mark indicates a product meets the UL and CSA testing standards for both the United States and Canada.
UL - The UL mark, which now serves customers in more than 100 countries, has become the authority on product safety. Its engineers test for things like soundness of design, safety of electrical components, and structural integrity of products for which UL listing is sought.
If you think of NSF International classification as protection for your customers, then the mark of Underwriters Laboratories (UL) indicates safety for those who work in your commercial kitchen. The Illinois-based testing agency assures that the equipment that gets its stamp operates safely. There is also a sanitation classification that offers similar assurances about food safety as the NSF mark. Products are indicated as "Classified UL-EPH."
Bumpers
Full Bumper - Heavy duty full perimeter bumper extends beyond doors and handles for added protection. The bumper is mounted to the base frame for added durability - the bumper is not used as the base frame. In this way, the bumper absorbs all the shock in transport, protecting the integrity of the construction.
Caster
5" Casters - 5" Heavy-duty casters - polyurethane casters are long lasting and used for easy maneuverability, even when fully loaded
Mobile
EZ Roll Heavy Duty Poly Caster - The EZ Roll Casters are standard on FWE cabinets and provide moderate floor protection with a high weight capacity.
EZ roll casters are shock absorbing and roll easier under heavy loads.

Available in 5", 6" and 8" diameters.
Construction
Stainless Steel / Insulated - Constructed of stainless steel, with welded base frame for added strength and durability - fully insulated cabinet and door provide energy efficient heating and longer holding times
Control Panel
Cold Temp Controls - Intuitive controls are easy to use and highly accurate, and oversized, high demand components assure rapid pull down times and recoveries. Set range 33F - 40F (1C - 4.4C)
Electronic Controls - Electronic controls featuring easy to read digital display of cabinet temperature (with recall capacity of temperature set point and actual cabinet temperature), equipped with a programmable low temperature alarm, master ON/OFF switch with power indicator light.

OPTIONS & ACCESSORIES

Caster
All Swivel Casters - All swivel casters allow for greater maneuverability. Great for tight turns or severe corners (such as on and off trucks or narrow hallways).
A drawback to the all swivel configuration is that it is harder to control the direction of the equipment when rolled in a straight line.
Center Floor Lock - Undercarriage lock-down keeps mobile equipment securely in place by gently lifting the unit high enough so the casters do not touch the ground.
Must be used with 6" casters.
Larger & Upgraded Casters - Larger Casters
Door Latch
Magnetic Door Latch - Heavy duty full grip magnetic door latch
Magnetic Work Flow Door Handle - Magnetic work flow door handles ergonomically accommodates kitchen staff and servers of varying heights
Paddle Door Latch - Recessed paddle style door latch
Padlocking Transport Latch - Cabinet mounted latch keeps door secure during transport, increased security with padlocking capabilities
Key Locking Door Latch - Heavy duty door latch with key locking capabilities
Electrical
220-240 Volt - 220-240 Volt
Extra
Cord Winder Brackets - Cabinet mounted brackets allow for cord to be wrapped and out of the way when not in use
