Typical capacity

This unit is described as having 8 runners. For this class of equipment, cooling racks commonly accommodate 8 to 20 trays, depending on height and design.

Power supply

Cooling racks are passive equipment and do not require an electrical power supply.

Construction material

This unit features aluminium and steel construction. Cooling racks are typically made from stainless steel or aluminium for hygiene and durability in food environments.

Tray compatibility

This unit is designed for 15'' x 26'' and 17'' x 26'' bakery trays. For this type of equipment, compatibility with standard gastronorm or bakery tray sizes is common.

Footprint

The footprint for 8-runner cooling racks typically ranges from 500mm to 700mm in width and 600mm to 800mm in depth, with heights varying based on runner spacing.

Mobility

Many cooling racks are fitted with castors for ease of movement within a production area, though this unit's mobility is not specified.

• What are the benefits of using an aluminium and steel construction?

  Aluminium offers lightweight properties and good thermal conductivity for cooling, while steel (especially heavy-duty steel as described) provides structural integrity and durability. This combination is common for robust yet manageable equipment.

• Are these racks suitable for other tray sizes?

• How should these cooling racks be cleaned and maintained?

• Can these racks be used in a freezer or cold room?

• What is the typical lifespan of used cooling racks?

Lab organisation and storage equipment is valued for maximising workspace efficiency and protecting sensitive materials from contamination. Buyers typically prioritise durability, proper shelving capacity, and chemical resistance when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment favours equipment with adjustable configurations to accommodate evolving laboratory needs. Common strengths include robust construction and long operational lifespan when maintained correctly. When buying used, inspectors should examine structural integrity, verify compatibility with existing lab layouts, and confirm any specialised coating or material specifications remain intact for intended applications.
