The Atosa YPF9042GR is a three-door refrigerated preparation counter designed for busy commercial kitchens where worktop space and reliable chilled storage need to work together. It holds a generous 470 litres across three compartments, providing accessible refrigerated storage directly at the point of preparation — a practical arrangement for larder sections, sandwich bars, pizzerias and similar operations where speed of access during service matters.
The side-mounted motor configuration is worth noting for kitchens operating in warmer environments. This unit is rated for high-ambient conditions up to 38°C at 85% humidity, which makes it a practical choice for kitchens where heat output from cooking equipment creates a challenging environment for refrigeration. The ventilated cooling system supports consistent temperature maintenance across the full depth of the cabinet, even during busy service periods when doors are opened frequently.
From an operational standpoint, several design decisions support day-to-day kitchen use:
- Stainless steel interior and exterior construction handles the rigours of a working kitchen environment
- Radius interior corners reduce the effort required to clean the cabinet thoroughly
- Self-closing doors help maintain cabinet temperature and reduce energy draw during busy service
- Recessed door handles reduce the risk of snagging in tight prep areas
- Digital temperature controller and display allow staff to monitor conditions at a glance
- Fitted castors as standard make the unit straightforward to reposition or pull forward for cleaning
On the installation side, this counter runs on a standard electrical supply and the side-mounted motor means clearance requirements differ from rear-motor units — confirm your available space before positioning. The castors make initial placement easier, but you should allow adequate ventilation around the motor housing. As with any under-counter refrigeration, it is worth checking that your kitchen's ambient temperature is well within the rated range, particularly in summer months or in kitchens with limited extraction.
This counter is well suited to medium-volume kitchens that need reliable chilled prep storage within arm's reach of the work surface. It suits operations running a structured larder section, or anywhere that a single-door unit would create a bottleneck. For very high-volume sites with constant access demands across a wider team, it is worth considering whether a larger or more heavily specified unit would better serve the operation.
If you are unsure whether this counter fits your layout or service volume, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.

ATO10078 1Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the YPF9042GR is designed to operate in high-ambient environments and is rated up to 38°C at 85% humidity, which covers most commercial kitchen conditions. The side-mounted motor configuration contributes to this capability. If your kitchen regularly exceeds that ambient temperature, it is worth discussing whether additional ventilation or an alternative unit would be more appropriate.
- Unlike rear-motor units, the motor housing sits at the side of the cabinet, so you will need to allow adequate clearance on that side for airflow and heat dissipation. The exact clearance required will depend on your specific layout, so we would recommend checking the installation guide or speaking with us before finalising the counter's position in your kitchen.
- It works well in larder sections, pizza and sandwich preparation areas, and any kitchen where staff need frequent, rapid access to chilled ingredients at the point of preparation. The three-door layout suits medium-volume operations with structured prep workflows. For very high-throughput kitchens or larger teams working the same section simultaneously, a higher-capacity counter may be worth considering.
