Why this upright fridge earns its place
The Polar G-Series PG042 is a double-door upright fridge for commercial kitchens that need one large chilled cabinet instead of several smaller units. The headline capacity is 1152Ltr, with 887 litres of net usable volume, 2/1 GN double format and external dimensions of 1340 mm wide, 875 mm deep and 2090 mm high.
Performance is specified at -2 to +8 °C with forced-air cooling, R600a refrigerant and climate class 5. The manufacturer description adds six adjustable shelves, two floor shelves, lockable self-closing doors, a front-mounted digital controller, automatic defrost and heavy-duty castors, so the PG042 is built as a main kitchen fridge for fast stock rotation rather than a light-duty store.
Energy data is unusually useful here: energy class B, 606 kWh/year and 1.66 kWh/24h are all listed, alongside a 280 W rated input. The painted steel cabinet has a 163 kg gross weight and is supplied with 2 Years Parts & Labour warranty, so delivery access, final position and service clearance should be checked before it becomes the kitchen's central chilled store.
