Why this negative monoblock earns its place
This is the refrigeration plant for a freezer cold room — a negative-temperature split unit sized for larger walk-ins. It is the part that does the cooling while the room does the storing: a positive unit holds a room chilled, a negative unit takes it down to frozen holding, holding at -18 to -22 °C. For a kitchen or producer keeping bulk frozen stock, it turns a cold room shell into a working freezer without a wall of chest and upright appliances.
As a split system, the unit keeps the heat-rejecting side separate from the cooling side, which gives you choice over where the warm, noisier half sits in relation to the room. It runs on 400V 3-phase supply at 1.78 kW and uses R 449 A refrigerant, with automatic defrost so it needs minimal fussing. In service it holds the room to its set freezer temperature and runs in the background, so staff load and rotate stock without minding the plant. It is built to sit quietly behind a busy operation.
This is not a plug-in appliance. It is installed and commissioned as part of a cold room, with both halves sited and connected to suit the room and the building around it. The outdoor condensing unit is compact (746 × 482 × 486 mm, weighing 81 kg) and can be sited discretely away from the working kitchen. Craven Cooling surveys the site, matches the unit to the room, installs and commissions it, then backs it with UK servicing and support. Speak to the team before ordering so the unit is specified to the room size and the temperatures you need to hold.
