Product Description
The Sterling Pro Cobus SPR160PV is a single-door upright refrigerator offering 600 litres of gastronorm-compatible chilled storage. Built from catering-grade stainless steel and designed specifically for professional kitchen environments, it provides reliable temperature-controlled storage for a broad range of fresh produce — including dairy, prepared ingredients, raw meat, fruit, and vegetables.
In a working kitchen, consistency matters more than headline figures. The SPR160PV uses ventilated cooling to maintain an even temperature throughout the cabinet, which reduces the risk of warm spots and helps protect the quality of stock during extended service periods. Automatic defrost keeps the unit running efficiently without manual intervention, and the Cubigel compressor is a well-regarded unit found in commercial refrigeration across the industry. The R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant is both low-impact environmentally and well-suited to the operating demands of a commercial kitchen.
From a practical standpoint, this cabinet offers a number of advantages that matter day-to-day:
- Ventilated cooling distributes temperature evenly across all shelf levels
- Automatic defrost removes a routine maintenance task from kitchen staff
- Internal LED lighting makes stock identification quick during busy service
- Three shelves supplied as standard, with gastronorm compatibility for direct tray storage
- 60mm insulation supports efficient running and stable internal temperatures
Installation is straightforward for a unit of this type — it requires a standard single-phase power supply and adequate clearance around the condenser for ventilation. As with all refrigeration, placement away from direct heat sources such as ovens or fryers will support efficiency and longevity. The footprint suits kitchens where space is managed carefully, and the single-door configuration works well in back-of-house areas where access is from one direction.
The SPR160PV is a practical choice for small to medium-sized operations — cafés, small restaurants, pub kitchens, and similar environments where a dependable upright refrigerator handles day-to-day chilled storage. For sites with significantly higher volume or a need for multi-door access, a larger-capacity cabinet may be worth considering. Equally, for very compact kitchens, a smaller undercounter or slimline unit might be a better fit.
If you're unsure whether this cabinet suits your storage requirements or kitchen layout, our team is happy to talk it through before you place an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The cabinet's adjustable temperature range covers safe storage for raw meat, dairy, and prepared ingredients. In practice, most operators use dedicated shelving zones or separate cabinets for raw and ready-to-eat products to comply with food safety requirements — something worth discussing with your environmental health officer if you're unsure about your specific setup.
- The SPR160PV runs on a standard single-phase power supply, so no specialist electrical work is typically required. You'll need to allow adequate clearance around the unit — particularly at the rear and top — for condenser ventilation, and it should be positioned away from direct heat sources such as ovens or grills, which can place additional load on the refrigeration system.
- As a rough guide, a 600-litre single-door cabinet suits small to medium kitchens — a café, small restaurant, or pub kitchen where daily stock volumes are manageable. If your kitchen runs high covers or takes large deliveries that need holding, a larger-capacity or multi-door cabinet is likely to serve you better. If you're not certain which size fits your workflow, it's worth speaking with us before ordering.
