Cooling element Hendi 424193
Technical data 01 / 02
This cooling element is designed for use with cooling tray 424186, helping keep displayed products chilled for longer. Its footprint is smaller than most products in this category, leaving more of the tray available for arranging the food display.
Where it is used
Use the element with its cooling tray for chilled food on a buffet or service counter. Cooling the tray supports a lower-temperature display without placing the element among the food. The element’s water and sodium polyacrylate fill provides the cooling medium beneath the presentation.
Prepare the element in a freezer for 12 hours before use. Planning this preparation ahead lets staff include it in the set-up for a service rather than waiting until the display is ready to go out. As the element is reusable, it can be prepared again for successive displays instead of being replaced after each service.
Care
The element is easy to clean, so clearing service residue takes less effort before it is put away or returned to use. That straightforward reset supports the next preparation cycle: staff can clean the element after service and include it in the freezer preparation for a later display.
Cleaning between uses also gives the team a practical handover point between display cycles. The element can be readied for reuse as part of the service reset, rather than treated as a single-use component.
How to choose
The compact footprint is useful when the cooling element and food presentation share the tray: it leaves more area available for arranging food than most products in this category. Its overall dimensions also help staff plan where it will sit in freezer storage, so it can be included in the preparation routine before a display is assembled.
At 3.016 kg, the element has substantial mass for an insert. Staff can account for this when lifting and positioning it during tray set-up, rather than handling it as a lightweight component. The cooling tray pairing, reusable format and freezer preparation routine make it suited to operations that reset chilled displays for successive service periods.
