Buying Guide: FED Equipment (Stainless, Refrigeration & Prep)
| Criteria | Stainless (Benches & Sinks) | Refrigeration (Workbench/Salad) | Prep/Benchtop (Rails & Smallwares) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Hygienic prep, wash & storage bays | Cold storage + prep at the pass | Ingredient access & service speed |
| Output/Capacity | 1200–2400 mm benches; single/double bowls | ~300–700 L benches; 6–8× 1/3 GN rails | 1/3–1/1 GN pans; stainless lids/sneeze options |
| Power/Setup | Flat‑pack or welded; levelling & bracing | 240 V plug; allow ventilation; +43 °C ambient | Mostly 240 V/10 A; match GN sizes & racks |
| Maintenance | Wipe down; de‑scale sinks; check seals | Clean condensers & door gaskets; defrost | Sanitise lids/dividers; inspect rails & pans |
Tip: build the line around workflow—door vs drawer fridges by use‑case, sink orientation by pass direction, and GN sizes that match your prep.
