Why this blast chiller earns its place
The Hoshizaki Premier KPS-42-SG JK397 delivers rapid, HACCP-compliant chilling and freezing for up to 50kg or 25kg of food, protecting texture, taste and shelf life during even the busiest service. A spacious interior accepts ten full-size 1/1GN or 600×400mm bakery trays, and the robust stainless steel build stands up to daily commercial use while wiping clean in seconds. Climate Class 5 refrigeration keeps performance consistent in kitchens up to 40°C, giving chefs confidence throughout service peaks.
Operation is guided by an intuitive 7-inch touchscreen featuring the IFR control system, pre-set favourites and memory for bespoke cycles. A single-point probe tracks core temperature precisely, backed by an automatic HACCP alarm for straightforward due-diligence records. Extra modes for thawing, proving and retarder-proving add real versatility, streamlining pastry and bakery production without extra equipment on the line.
Power draw is 1.8kW, and this JK397 model is wired single phase — useful for sites without a three-phase supply available. The equivalent three-phase version is listed separately under SKU JK396. Refrigerant is R290, and the cabinet weighs 175kg gross.
