The Lincat D5R/100B is a countertop refrigerated display unit built for rear-service counter layouts, where serving staff manage and replenish stock from behind the unit while customers select from the front. It is designed to hold sandwiches, salads, prepared foods, pastries, and similar chilled products at a safe serving temperature throughout the service period, while keeping them clearly visible at counter level.

Fan-assisted air circulation maintains an even temperature across all shelf levels, which matters in practice when rear doors are being opened and closed regularly during a busy service. Static cooling alone struggles to recover quickly under that kind of repeated access; the forced-air system here handles it more reliably. Hot gas auto-defrost reduces the need for manual intervention and keeps the unit operating consistently over long service periods without the interruptions that manual defrost routines can cause.

In day-to-day operation, the unit offers several practical advantages for front-of-counter service:

  • Digital temperature control with deviation alert helps operators stay within safe serving ranges throughout service
  • Sliding rear glass doors allow quick, low-disruption restocking without disturbing front display presentation
  • Internal lighting keeps chilled products clearly visible to customers across the counter
  • Clip-in light fittings allow bulb replacement without specialist tools or downtime

Installation requires a level, stable counter surface with adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser. The unit performs best positioned away from direct heat sources and cooking equipment — ambient temperature has a measurable effect on refrigeration efficiency, and this is worth considering carefully when planning placement. A standard electrical supply is all that is required.

This unit suits lower-to-moderate volume servery environments well: workplace restaurants, café counters, hotel breakfast stations, and similar operations where a single countertop display handles demand comfortably. Sites with higher footfall, greater product volume, or a need for wider counter coverage are likely to require a larger or multi-deck unit. If your counter is set up for customer self-service rather than rear service, a different display configuration will be a better fit.

If you are unsure whether this unit suits your counter layout, ambient conditions, or service volume, the team is glad to talk through the details before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Is this unit suitable for a high-footfall café or canteen environment?

The D5R/100B is well suited to moderate-volume servery settings such as workplace restaurants, café counters, and hotel breakfast stations. For sites with consistently high footfall, a larger or multi-deck unit is likely to offer more appropriate capacity and may handle the frequency of restocking and door access more comfortably.

What does rear-service mean in practice, and is it right for my counter layout?

Rear-service means that staff access the unit from behind to replenish and manage stock, while customers view and select products from the front. This works well where a counter physically separates staff from customers. If your setup is intended for customer self-service, or if staff cannot easily access the back of the unit, a front-access or open-front configuration would be more appropriate.

Are there any specific installation requirements I need to plan for?

The unit requires a level, stable counter surface and adequate ventilation clearance around the condenser — operating in a poorly ventilated area or close to heat-generating cooking equipment will reduce refrigeration efficiency. A standard electrical supply is sufficient, but placement in relation to ambient heat sources is worth considering carefully before installation.
