Friga-Bohn Evaporator | 3C-E 3245 R + E1U | Commercial Unit Cooler
Product Description
The 3C-E 3245 R is a professional-grade unit cooler from the cubic “3C-E” family.
- 3245: Indicates a dual-fan configuration (2 fans) using 300mm motors, coupled with a high-capacity coil block to handle larger cooling loads.
- R: Specifies the fin spacing optimized for Medium Temperature applications. This spacing is designed to balance cooling efficiency with effective air movement, even as light frost begins to form.
- E1U: Denotes the inclusion of a factory-fitted Electric Defrost kit, featuring armored heaters in the coil and the drain pan.
In the UAE’s busy food service and logistics sectors, the 3C-E 3245 R + E1U is a preferred choice for walk-in chillers and prep rooms. The dual-fan setup ensures a wider air distribution pattern, while the E1U defrost system is essential for maintaining efficiency in rooms where doors are frequently opened, preventing ice buildup from compromising the unit’s cooling capacity.
Key Features
- Dual-Fan Airflow Coverage: Two high-efficiency 300mm fans provide a wide air throw, ensuring even temperature distribution in rectangular cold rooms.
- Factory-Fitted Electric Defrost (E1U): Integrated stainless steel heaters provide rapid and automated ice removal, allowing for stable temperatures even in high-humidity conditions.
- Optimized Coil Design: Built with internally grooved copper tubes and corrugated aluminum fins to ensure maximum heat exchange per square meter.
- Corrosion-Resistant Housing: Features a galvanized steel casing with a white polyester coating, providing excellent durability against the saline air in coastal areas like Dubai.
- Service-Friendly Design: Includes removable side panels and a large drain pan for quick access during cleaning and routine maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Why choose two fans instead of one larger fan?
- A: The dual-fan 3245 provides a broader air curtain, which is better for rooms that are wider than they are deep, ensuring no “warm spots” occur in the corners.
- Q: Is the E1U system necessary for rooms above 0°C?
- A: In the UAE, yes. Because of the high humidity, moisture can turn to frost on the coil even if the air temperature is +2°C. The E1U heaters ensure the coil stays clear.
- Q: Can this unit be used with R448A?
- A: Absolutely. It is fully compatible with modern, low-GWP refrigerants used in current Dubai sustainability projects.
