Hatco HCSSBFR-24-F Remote Hot/Cold Built-In Flush Top Simulated Stone Shelf, 24" x 15-1/2", R-513A Condenser, 120V
Description
A flush simulated stone shelf that switches between hot and cold display, with a remote condensing unit you place where it fits.
The Hatco HCSSBFR-24-F is a remote hot/cold built-in simulated stone shelf with a 24" x 15-1/2" Swanstone surface, bottom mounted, flush with the countertop. It heats or chills from one footprint and changes modes in as little as 30 minutes. This R version ships with a remote 1/5 HP condensing unit that uses R-513A refrigerant, plus an unattached control box and TXV, so the fabricator can place the condenser where it fits best in the cabinet.

Hot or cold service
The same shelf switches between heated and chilled display. Hatco rates the change at as little as 30 minutes, so one footprint covers breakfast, lunch and dinner menus.
Two digital controllers
The control box has a power switch and separate HOT and COLD digital controllers. Cold setpoints run 10°F to 50°F and hot setpoints 65°F to 192°F; factory presets are 25°F and 180°F.
Patented thermal break
A thermal break around the shelf reduces condensation and temperature transfer onto the countertop next to it.
Flush simulated stone top
The Swanstone simulated stone surface mounts from below, flush with the countertop. Ash Gray is standard; Hatco notes that stone patterns vary.
Remote R-513A condenser
The 1/5 HP condensing unit ships loose with sight glass, service valves, dryer/filter and receiver for easier service. Lines can run up to 50 ft.
Remote control box
The electronic temperature control box ships loose with a 4 ft. lead wire for remote mounting on a vertical surface, outside the heat zone.
Delivery and setup
- Inspect the crate for damage before you sign, and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
- Hatco ships the shelf in a shipping frame. Keep it in the frame until the counter and cabinet are ready, and move it upright only.
- In the box: shelf assembly with temperature probe, control box, condensing unit and TXV valve, all shipped loose.
- Refrigerant line, electrical and brazing work must be done by qualified installers to local codes. Maximum line length from condensing unit to shelf is 50 ft.
- Mount the control box vertically and outside the heat zone, or damage will occur.
- Give the condensing unit 12" x 12" louvered openings in front and behind, and do not recirculate exhaust air inside the cabinet.
- In cold weather, let the unit sit at least 10 hours in a 65°F to 86°F room before the first start.
