LR360 Spec SheetProduct Description
The Foster LR360 is a 360-litre under-counter freezer built for commercial kitchen environments where bench space and floor area are both at a premium. Constructed in stainless steel with an aluminium interior, it sits neatly beneath a standard-height workbench, keeping frozen stock accessible at the point of use without occupying stand-alone floor space. The front-breathing refrigeration system means the unit can be positioned in enclosed under-counter runs without requiring rear clearance for airflow — a practical advantage in fitted kitchen layouts.
In a working kitchen, the LR360 suits service areas where frozen ingredients or prepared items need to be within arm's reach of the pass or prep section. The climate class 4 rating means it will operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to 32°C, which covers the majority of commercial kitchen environments, including those without dedicated air conditioning. Recovery after door opening during a busy service is consistent with what operators typically expect from Foster's under-counter range.
From a practical standpoint, the unit offers a number of day-to-day operational advantages:
- Front-breathing design allows installation in enclosed under-counter spaces
- Roller castors to the rear and levelling bolts at the front make positioning and minor repositioning straightforward
- Stainless steel exterior is durable and easy to wipe down during service
- Aluminium interior supports thorough cleaning between uses
- Climate class 4 rating provides reliable performance in warm kitchen environments
Installation is relatively straightforward for a unit of this type — it requires a standard electrical supply and sufficient clearance at the front for airflow. No rear ventilation space is needed, which simplifies placement in built-in configurations. The combination of rear castors and front levelling bolts means it can be moved for deep cleaning without excessive effort, though it should be positioned on a level, solid surface during normal use.
The LR360 is well suited to smaller commercial kitchens, café and bistro operations, and as a supplementary freezer in larger sites where frozen prep needs to be staged close to a specific workstation. Where a single 360-litre unit will not cover the volume required, Foster offer larger upright and multi-door alternatives in the same range. Equally, for very compact spaces, smaller-capacity under-counter options may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your kitchen layout or service volume, the team at Advantage is happy to talk it through with you.

LR360 Spec SheetFrequently Asked Questions
- Yes — the front-breathing refrigeration system is specifically designed for this. Unlike rear-vented units, the LR360 does not require a gap behind it for airflow, making it suitable for fitted kitchen configurations where the unit sits flush within a run of cabinetry or equipment.
- For a small to medium operation — a café, bistro, or compact restaurant kitchen — a 360-litre under-counter freezer will typically cover day-to-day frozen prep requirements when positioned close to the workstation. Higher-volume sites, or those needing to hold larger quantities of frozen stock, are likely to need a larger upright or multi-door freezer to avoid over-filling and compromising temperature recovery.
- The unit requires a standard single-phase electrical connection. Because it front-breathes, no rear clearance is needed, but the front grille area must remain unobstructed. It should be installed on a solid, level surface — the adjustable levelling bolts at the front help compensate for minor floor irregularities. If you are unsure about your kitchen's suitability, it is worth speaking with your installer before delivery.
