Description
The Traulsen TBC5-62 is a self-contained, undercounter blast chiller built for rapidly chilling prepared food in batch production workflows. This exact 54 in. model has a left-hinged solid door, a stainless steel interior and exterior, and a heavy-gauge work top that can support active prep-area use.
Five factory-installed universal tray slides accommodate up to five 18 x 26 in. pans or ten 12 x 20 in. pans. Operators can run automatic or manually adjusted chill cycles from the touchscreen, use the supplied removable probes to monitor product, and print or retrieve recorded cycle data.
Applications and Workflow
Suitable for commercial kitchens, commissaries, bakeries, caterers, and institutional food-production areas that need to chill batch-prepared food on full-size sheet pans or steam-table pans. This is an undercounter, self-contained unit with five tray-slide positions; confirm that its pan capacity and 100 lb. product capacity suit the intended batch size.
Features and Practical Benefits
Exact left-hinged, caster-mounted configuration
TBC5-62 is the left-hinged configuration with 6 in. casters and no stainless steel back, helping distinguish it from other TBC5 configurations.
Flexible pan layout
The five universal tray slides support either five 18 x 26 in. pans or ten 12 x 20 in. pans, allowing the cabinet to fit sheet-pan or steam-table-pan workflows.
Probe- or time-based operation
Three removable food probes support monitored cycles, while the touchscreen also offers automatic and manual operation with adjustable target temperatures or cycle times.
Cycle documentation at the unit
An onboard cycle-data printer, USB port, and 90-day cycle-data memory support recordkeeping at the point of production.
Service-conscious refrigeration layout
The self-contained refrigeration system has a front-facing condenser coil for access during routine cleaning and maintenance.

Installation and Purchasing Considerations
- Plan a finished footprint of 54 in. W x 34.88 in. D x 33.75 in. H. The stated height is with the standard 6 in. casters or legs.
- Allow for a 58 5/8 in. overall depth when the door is open 90 degrees. The door swings from the left-hinged configuration; verify aisle and adjacent-equipment clearance before positioning the unit.
- Connect to a dedicated 115V, single-phase, 60 Hz, 20A circuit. The unit has an attached NEMA 5-20P plug and a 9 ft. cord.
- This is a self-contained, air-cooled unit. Keep the front-facing condenser coil accessible for cleaning; the manufacturer does not state a required clearance dimension.
- Confirm the receiving path and final location accommodate the 54 in. cabinet width and the door swing. Pans are capacity references; verify any required pans separately.
Choosing This Configuration
This page is for TBC5-62 specifically: left-hinged door, 6 in. casters, and no stainless steel back.
A label printer is not part of the base TBC5-62 designation; the manufacturer identifies it as an accessory that changes the device number to include “-LP.”
The five tray slides are factory installed. Pan capacities describe what the slides accommodate and do not establish that pans are included.
