Friga-Bohn Evaporator | 3C-E 3243 R | Commercial Cubic Unit Cooler
Product Description
The 3C-E 3243 R offers a balanced approach to cooling capacity and airflow, specifically for rooms that require more than a single fan can provide.
- 3243: Indicates a dual-fan configuration using 300mm motors. The “43” class coil provides a standardized heat exchange surface area suitable for a variety of medium-temperature applications.
- R: Specifies the fin spacing optimized for Medium Temperature This configuration provides a balance between high thermal efficiency and the ability to operate effectively in environments where some frost may occur, ensuring longer run times between defrost cycles.
In the UAE, the 3C-E 3243 R is commonly installed in supermarket walk-in chillers, restaurant preparation areas, and butchery cold rooms. Its dual-fan setup ensures that cold air is distributed broadly across the room, preventing temperature fluctuations and maintaining product freshness in the high-ambient conditions of the Middle East.
Key Features
- Dual-Fan Coverage: Two 300mm high-efficiency fans deliver a wide air distribution, ensuring consistent temperatures even in rectangular or oddly shaped cold rooms.
- Optimized Coil Performance: Featuring internally grooved copper tubes and corrugated aluminum fins, the unit maximizes heat transfer while maintaining a compact footprint.
- Durable Construction: The casing is made from galvanized steel with a white polyester powder coating, providing excellent protection against the humid and corrosive atmospheres found in coastal UAE cities.
- Service-Friendly Design: Includes removable side panels and a large, accessible drain pan, making it easy for technicians to perform routine cleaning and maintenance.
- Multi-Refrigerant Compatibility: Fully compatible with modern, eco-friendly refrigerants like R448A and R449A, as well as traditional options like R134a and R404A.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Is this unit suitable for a freezer?
- A: While it can handle temperatures near 0°C, the “R” series without a defrost kit is best for chilled storage. For freezing (-18°C), you should specify the +E1U version which includes electric defrost heaters.
- Q: How far does the air throw reach?
- A: With its dual 300mm fans, this unit provides a strong air throw suitable for medium-depth rooms, typically reaching 10-12 meters depending on room obstructions.
- Q: Can it be used in the high humidity of Dubai?
- A: Yes, the polyester coating on the casing and the quality of the coil materials are specifically designed to resist corrosion in humid environments.
