Description
The Traulsen TBC13-24-LP is a self-contained reach-in blast chiller with a label printer, built for batch chilling in commercial kitchens. Its 13 factory-installed universal tray slides accept up to thirteen 18 in. x 26 in. pans or twenty-six 12 in. x 20 in. pans, giving production teams a single cabinet for sheet-pan or steam-table-pan workflows.
This left-hinged configuration is supplied on 6 in. casters and uses a touch-screen controller with automatic and manual cycle operation. Three removable food probes monitor product during probe-based cycles, while the control stores cycle records for later retrieval through the USB port or the onboard cycle-data printer.
Applications and Workflow
Suitable for commissaries, bakeries, catering kitchens, healthcare foodservice, and high-volume restaurant prep areas that need to chill batch-cooked food on full-size sheet pans or 12 in. x 20 in. pans. This is a self-contained blast chiller, not a storage refrigerator; plan for condensate removal and the required dedicated electrical connection.
Features and Practical Benefits
High-capacity pan handling
Thirteen universal tray slides support either 13 full-size 18 in. x 26 in. pans or 26 12 in. x 20 in. pans, allowing the cabinet to fit different batch-prep formats.
Label-printer configuration
The -LP model designation identifies the label-printer-equipped configuration, helping operations incorporate printed identification into their chilling workflow.
Probe-based or timed operation
Use the three removable probes for product-temperature monitoring, or run a time-based cycle when probes are not used. Automatic and manual operating modes are available from the touch-screen control.
Cycle documentation access
The controller retains 90 days of cycle data and includes a USB port plus an onboard cycle-data printer for accessing recorded cycle information.
Service-oriented cabinet design
The condenser coil faces the front for cleaning access. Stainless-steel interior and exterior construction supports demanding commercial use.

Installation and Purchasing Considerations
- Allow an installation footprint of 41 in. W x 35 in. D x 74 in. H. The listed height is with the standard 6 in. legs or casters.
- The left-hinged solid door requires 59 1/8 in. overall depth when opened to 90 degrees. Verify that this door swing will not obstruct aisles, adjacent equipment, or pan loading.
- Connect to 208-230/115V, 60 Hz, single-phase power using the attached NEMA L14-20P plug. The unit requires a 20 A circuit and four feed wires with ground.
- Provide a floor drain or specify the optional condensate evaporator for condensate removal. The optional evaporator is field installed.
- Confirm the receiving route and final placement location accommodate the cabinet dimensions and door swing before delivery.
Choosing This Configuration
TBC13-24-LP is the left-hinged, 6 in. caster configuration. The -LP suffix denotes the label-printer option.
This model is self-contained. Remote-application models are a separate offering and should not be substituted without confirming the remote refrigeration design and site requirements.
Pans are capacity references; pans are not identified as included with the blast chiller.
Frequently Asked Questions
What pan sizes and quantities can the TBC13-24-LP hold?
It has 13 universal tray slides and a listed capacity of 13 pans measuring 18 in. x 26 in. or 26 pans measuring 12 in. x 20 in.
Which way does the door hinge?
This TBC13-24 configuration has a left-hinged door. At a 90-degree opening, the cabinet depth extends to 59 1/8 in.
What electrical connection does it need?
It requires 208-230/115V, 60 Hz, single-phase power, draws 16.0 full-load amps, and uses an attached NEMA L14-20P plug on a 20 A circuit.
How is condensate handled?
A floor drain is required for condensate removal unless the optional automatic electric condensate evaporator is selected and field installed.
