Traulsen UHT48-LR 48-Inch 2-Door Undercounter Refrigerator

The Traulsen UHT48-LR is a 48-inch, 2-door undercounter refrigerator with 13.56 cu. ft. of net storage. Its 48-inch, two-section cabinet divides refrigerated storage between separate door openings beneath a work area. Its left/right-hinged solid-door configuration is intended for covered ingredient containers and other refrigerated station supplies that are easier to organize on shelves than in drawers.

Two adjustable, powder-coated wire shelves per door provide 4 shelves across the cabinet. Doors self-close below 90 degrees and can stay open at 105 degrees during loading. The rear-mounted, self-contained system breathes from the front and uses R-450A; electronic controls display cabinet temperature. The published refrigerator operating range is 34°F to 38°F.

Applications and Workflow

Useful beside foodservice prep counters, beverage stations, and service areas that need refrigerated shelf storage close to staff. It is an enclosed refrigerator, so choose a freezer or an open-top prep table when the station needs those different functions.

Features and Practical Benefits

4 adjustable shelves

Shelves are mounted on pilasters and can be adjusted to organize containers of different heights. This is a shelf-storage configuration rather than a pan-drawer cabinet.

Front-breathing refrigeration

The condenser airflow is taken through the front of the cabinet, supporting an undercounter installation without requiring a remote condenser. Keep the front airflow path accessible and follow the installation instructions.

Temperature display at the station

Electronic controls provide a digital readout so staff can reference cabinet temperature without opening the storage compartment.

Construction matched to the configuration

The standard configuration combines stainless steel exterior front and sides with a galvanized exterior back and bottom.

Technical Specifications

Installation and Purchasing Considerations

• Allocate a 48-inch cabinet width and check the factory drawing for overall depth, height, and the chosen caster or leg package before fabricating an opening.
• Provide 115V, 60 Hz, single-phase power and a receptacle suitable for the attached NEMA 5-15P plug. Published full-load current is 7.5 amps. Verify the unit data plate and installation instructions.
• Allow for the left/right-hinged door swing, including the 105-degree loading position. Check the exact model drawing rather than using closed-cabinet depth as aisle clearance.
• Keep the front ventilation opening clear and retain access for condenser cleaning. The refrigeration system is self-contained, so a separate remote condensing unit is not required.

Choosing This Configuration

The UHT48-LR has left/right-hinged access. Match that arrangement to adjacent equipment and aisle traffic before choosing another UHT door configuration. Drawer models at comparable widths offer a different pan-storage layout and should not be treated as the same interior package.

The standard configuration combines stainless steel exterior front and sides with a galvanized exterior back and bottom.

Confirm optional legs, casters, additional shelving, or other accessories on the order. Options listed for the UHT family are not automatically included in this exact configuration.
