Beverage-Air SPE72HC-18C-CL Details

From the Elite series, the Beverage Air SPE72HC-18C-CL 72" refrigerated sandwich prep table ensures that your toppings stay fresh and ingredients stay nearby at food-safe temperatures. This particular unit boasts a clear lid to provide excellent product visibility, allowing for both employees and customers to see the toppings available. Plus, its extra-large 17" wide polyethylene cutting board gives your employees ample workspace for assembling salads, sandwiches, and other popular dishes. It's even removable for hassle-free cleaning.

In terms of capacity, the top section by the cutting board can hold up to (18) 1/6 size food pans, while (6) epoxy-coated steel wire shelves inside the base let you easily organize the interior and utilize the 21.5 cu. ft. space. For your convenience, a set of (18) 1/6 size, 4" deep food pans are included; these pans are made of durable polycarbonate to withstand regular use.

A stainless steel front, sides, top, doors and grille provide years of dependable performance. Inside, the cabinet even boasts a corrosion-resistant aluminum liner, which helps protect it from spill or leak damage. Three self-closing doors ensure easy access too, as each is outfitted with a 120 degree stay-open feature on cartridge-style hinges, while a snap-in gasket provides a secure closure. Since the doors are removable and field-reversible, they deliver the ultimate convenience!

For outstanding performance, the prep table's high-capacity 1/3 hp refrigeration system features an advanced airflow management system that cools pans from the bottom. This airflow ensures that the internal temperature is maintained between 36 and 38 degrees Fahrenheit, creating a food-safe environment for healthy holding. It also produces uniform temperature distribution throughout the cabinet to prevent inconsistent pockets of air from forming. To deliver outstanding efficiency, the refrigeration system even circulates R290 refrigerant, an eco-friendly option with an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of 0 and a global warming potential (GWP) of 0. CFC-free foamed-in-place polyurethane insulation helps maintain energy efficiency while also providing overall support to the cabinet.

At the end of the day, this prep table is easy to clean around and service, as it includes a set of 4 heavy-duty 6" casters, 2 of which feature brakes to hold it steady during operation. It requires a 115V electrical connection and includes an 8' long cord.

Attention CA Residents:

Customer questions about this product

Does Beverage-Air warrant this item for use in a food truck?

This item is covered under Beverage-Air's warranty contingent upon the unit being kept in a controlled climate. This means that the interior of the food truck may not be susceptible to extreme high or low temperatures. If warranty service is required, the truck must be able to sit stationary for 24-48 hours to allow for a technician to service the equipment.

How do I know if this unit will fit under or match the height of my ADA-height counter?

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.

I haven’t heard of R-290, R-600a, R-513a, or R-448A refrigerant before. What is it?

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.

What does the “H” or “HC” mean in the newer Beverage-Air model numbers?

This is a representation that the unit is using a “Hydrocarbon” refrigerant. This would include both R290 and R600a refrigerants. They are being used as an eco-friendly refrigerant by Beverage-Air in response to the EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) Program. Read more about this program in our blog post on Refrigerant Regulations.

What kinds of pans can I use in my refrigerated prep table?

While various configurations combining traditional 1/3 size, 1/6 size, and other food pan sizes are possible, it's important to refer to your equipment's Specification Sheet and/or Owner's Manual to see what pan sizes and configurations are recommended. Certain accessories may be needed in order to use pans of a different size than what is recommended. It is also important to note that mixing and matching pans from different manufacturers may result in the pans not fitting properly.

Debbie M. from Debbie Micallef

Posted on 09/04/2016

Style:
Cutting Top

There is more room inside in the picture on the website than actual size. This would be good for a very small cafe that only has a few items they want to use this for. Before I ordered it, I asked the help desk if it would take larger food containers, if I could mix and match them. I was told yes, if I purchased extra bars. I bought the bars and the larger sized containers and both were useless. Never used the bars and if you want the half sized containers inside you lose a lot of room and will have wide open gaps. Doesn't do well with anything but the containers it comes with. The oversized cutting board is ridiculous. If the person using this pre table is short, they can't reach the back containers.

This is another beverage air Bain marie we ordered for our sandwich line. They are one of the best coolers on the market. I like it.
