MST-28-12-N
Product overview
The Turbo Air MST-28-12-N combines 12 ingredient pans in 3 rows with an 8-cu.-ft. refrigerated cabinet. Its 27½-inch width suits a compact sandwich or salad station, with an included 9½-inch-deep, ½-inch-thick high-density polyethylene cutting board and side rail.
- 12 included pans: One-sixth size, 4 inches deep.
- Preparation surface: 9½-inch-deep polyethylene board.
- 33–39°F cabinet: Digital control with an exterior display.
Ingredient cooling and cabinet construction
The Cold Bunker forced-air system circulates cold air beneath, in front of, above and behind the pans, maintaining food below 41°F, the NSF requirement, even with the lids open. Its separate compartment isolates the pans from the reach-in cabinet to prevent spills. An insulated pan cover is included.
The stainless steel exterior has a galvanized steel back and bottom. Inside, aluminum walls pair with a stainless steel floor and an ABS door liner. A field-reversible hinge lets the single door suit the station layout. An adjustable, heavy-duty PE-coated wire shelf organizes cabinet stock.
The cabinet and solid door are foamed in place with high-density, CFC-free polyurethane insulation.
LED interior lighting makes stored items visible. Fan control stops the fan when the door opens to limit warm air entering the cabinet. The self-cleaning condenser brushes daily to reduce dust buildup that can impair cooling, cause breakdowns and damage stored food.
R-290 hydrocarbon refrigeration is designed to meet the 2017 DOE energy-conservation standards and uses an EPA SNAP-approved refrigerant with zero ozone-depletion potential and a global-warming potential of 3.

Installation and daily use
Install indoors on a strong, level floor, away from heat and splashing water. Leave at least 5 inches behind the unit and keep the rear and side airflow paths clear. Lock the front casters after positioning. Use a dedicated grounded outlet with an accessible plug, without an extension cord or adapter. Check the delivered rating plate for circuit requirements.
Run the refrigerator for 24 hours before loading. Keep the rear interior air inlet clear, limit each shelf to less than 110 lb (50 kg), and keep products within the shelf edges. The digital controller starts at a 37°F setpoint. A qualified installer can reverse the door hinge using the exact-model instructions.
R-290 is flammable. Keep ignition sources and flammable substances away, protect refrigerant tubing, and do not use mechanical defrosting tools or unapproved electrical appliances inside. Refrigeration work requires trained service personnel.
Cleaning and care
Switch off and disconnect power before cleaning. Use a damp cloth and warm soapy water; avoid abrasive cleaners and direct water spray. Remove pans to reach the guide pans and pan supports for cleaning. Empty the drain pan periodically and return the drain hose to it.
The automatic condenser brush may not remove grease. Arrange for a qualified technician to blow out the coil with nitrogen once or twice a year. After unplugging, wait at least five minutes before restarting.
