MBF8005GR

Overview

The Atosa MBF8005GR is a top-mount, two-door reach-in refrigerator for commercial food storage. Its two-section cabinet provides 43.2 cu. ft. of capacity, with six shelves across the two sections. The exterior dimensions are 51 3/4 in. wide, 31 3/4 in. deep and 81 3/8 in. high. Solid doors keep stored product out of view, while the top-mounted, self-contained refrigeration system serves the cabinet.

The MBF8005GR uses R290 refrigerant and has a stated temperature range of 33°F to 45°F in the supplied technical table. Atosa recommends setting the refrigerator between 35°F and 38°F for food preservation. Confirm the temperature appropriate for the food being stored and your operation’s food-safety requirements.

Documentation note: The supplied installation and operation manual has MBF8506GR on its cover, but its top-mount technical table includes the MBF8005GR. The product-specific MBF8005GR specifications below are drawn from the model entries in the supplied technical table and Atosa’s reach-in refrigerator specification sheet. Check the documentation supplied with your unit for model-specific control and service instructions.

Key Features

• Two-section storage: 43.2 cu. ft. capacity and six shelves provide separate spaces for organizing refrigerated ingredients and prepared items.
• Top-mount refrigeration: The self-contained system is mounted above the cabinet. Atosa specifies down-duct refrigeration to distribute air through the interior.
• Temperature control: An electronic temperature controller supports the stated 33°F to 45°F operating range. Atosa recommends 35°F to 38°F for food preservation.
• Stainless steel cabinet: Atosa lists stainless steel for both the interior and exterior.
• Door and access features: The two solid doors have recessed handles, standard locks and magnetic gaskets. The specification sheet also identifies a self-closing and stay-open door feature.
• Interior visibility: LED interior lighting illuminates stored product.
• Movability: Pre-installed casters are included; the specification sheet lists 4-inch casters.
• Optional shelving: Additional shelves are listed as an optional accessory and include four shelf clips per shelf. The MBF8005GR shelf part number is W0402385.

Installation & Requirements

The supplied manual’s installation section calls for a suitable electrical connection and states that installation and electrical work should be carried out by qualified persons. It specifies a thermomagnetic circuit breaker, not supplied with the refrigerator, between the mains power point and the unit’s power cable. The breaker is to be suited to the unit’s rated output; the manual does not give a breaker amperage in the supplied text. The electrical supply should correspond to the refrigerator’s 115V/60Hz/1Ph rating, with supply voltage within ±10% of the unit’s rated voltage.

The manual instructs the installer to remove the packaging straps, cardboard and PET protective film. Before placing the refrigerator into service, clean it with mild detergent and dry it with a soft cloth. It calls for placement in the coolest, best-ventilated part of the room and says not to install the refrigerator near heat sources or direct sunlight. Atosa’s specification sheet separately reminds operators to leave the unit room to breathe. The supplied text does not provide a specific clearance dimension.

After connection, the manual says to check that the refrigerator is operating by confirming that the pilot light incorporated in the main switch comes on. It also says the electrical system and breaker installation should comply with current requirements. Consult a qualified professional for site-specific electrical work.

Operation

Use the electronic temperature controller to manage the cabinet temperature. The manufacturer lists a temperature range of 33°F to 45°F and recommends a setting between 35°F and 38°F for food preservation. The manual cautions users not to change microcomputer parameters themselves, explaining that the product’s parameters are set before it leaves the factory and that changing them may damage the compressor unit or other functions.

The supplied manual describes a keyboard lock and unlock function on its digital control. Its text indicates that holding the relevant key or keys for more than three seconds changes the display between “OF” and “on.” Because the supplied manual is titled MBF8506GR, verify the control’s exact key sequence against the documentation for the specific unit before using this function. The manual also identifies alarm signalling but the supplied text does not provide alarm codes or corrective steps.

Keep the doors closed when the cabinet is not being accessed, and use the door locks where securing the contents is needed. The specification sheet identifies the doors as self-closing and stay-open, so a door can close after access or remain open when held in the stay-open position.

Cleaning & Maintenance

The supplied manual strongly recommends cleaning the refrigerator regularly and specifies monthly cleaning. Before cleaning, disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply. The manual advises cleaning the unit and drying it with a soft cloth; for initial cleaning it specifies mild detergent. Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate defrosting beyond those recommended by the manufacturer, and do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

Atosa’s specification sheet also instructs operators to clean the condenser frequently to give the unit more fresh air. It does not state a specific condenser-cleaning interval or provide a condenser-cleaning procedure in the supplied text. For servicing, the manual says replacement components should be like components and that servicing should be performed by factory-authorized service personnel. It also warns against non-original spare parts and unauthorized modifications.

Applications

The MBF8005GR is suited to commercial kitchens that need refrigerated, enclosed storage for ingredients and prepared foods. Its two sections can support organized storage in restaurants, cafeterias, catering kitchens and other food-service operations. The 43.2 cu. ft. capacity and six shelves offer room to separate items by type or workflow, while the solid locking doors suit back-of-house storage where a glass display is not required. Confirm that the cabinet’s dimensions, electrical supply and operating temperature range suit the intended location and products.
