The True TUC-27-HC is an undercounter solid door refrigerator from the TUC Series. It stores product behind one solid door on two adjustable shelves, holds 33°F to 38°F and runs on R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant. It plugs into a 115/60/1 outlet (2.0 A).
Refrigeration System
A factory-balanced, self-contained capillary tube refrigeration system holds 33°F to 38°F. True sizes the system generously for the cabinet, which helps it recover after door openings. R290 is a natural hydrocarbon refrigerant with zero ozone depletion potential and a very low global warming potential.
Electronically commutated (ECM) evaporator and condenser fan motors use less power, run cooler and deliver a more consistent airflow, which improves reliability and temperature uniformity. The evaporator coil is epoxy coated to resist corrosion. The condensing unit slides out from the back of the cabinet for cleaning and service. The compressor is rated at 1/6 HP.
Why Operators Choose It
- Natural refrigerant: R290 hydrocarbon refrigerant with zero ozone depletion potential and very low global warming potential.
- ECM fan motors: Electronically commutated evaporator and condenser fan motors run cooler and more efficiently and move a steadier volume of air.
- Self-closing door with stay-open: The door closes itself for a positive seal yet holds open at 90° for loading.
- Epoxy-coated evaporator: Coating protects the coil against corrosion.
- Foamed-in-place insulation: High-density polyurethane insulation with zero ODP and zero GWP.
- Tool-free gaskets: One-piece magnetic gaskets pull out without tools for cleaning.
- NSF/ANSI 7: Compliant for open food product.
Cabinet & Door Construction
Exterior: stainless steel front, top and ends. Corrosion resistant GalFan coated steel back. Interior: clear coated aluminum liner. Stainless steel floor with coved corners. The cabinet is foamed in place with high-density polyurethane insulation. Door: stainless steel exterior with clear aluminum liner.
Shelving
Two adjustable PVC-coated wire shelves in two sizes (23-1/4"W x 19-1/4"D and 23-1/4"W x 13-3/4"D). Shelves adjust in 1/2" increments.
Ideal For
Cook lines, bars, coffee shops and prep stations that need cold storage tucked under a counter within arm's reach.
Available Configurations
Choose the door hinge (Right Hinge, Left Hinge) above; both configurations share the same specification.
