FAQs, Artikcold D550S/D650S: basket options, ambient conditions, power supply, defrost practice

Can I add baskets or dividers to organise products in the D550S or D650S?

Yes. Many hinged chest freezers accept compatible baskets/dividers; check model‑specific accessories to improve picking speed and product rotation.

What ambient conditions help the freezers maintain −18 °C to −34 °C reliably?

Provide ventilation clearance, avoid direct heat sources, and minimise lid‑open time; these steps support stable deep‑freeze holding in busy environments.

Do these units require a special electrical connection beyond 13 AMP?

No. Both models are rated for 220–240 V, 13 AMP operation, allowing straightforward UK plug‑and‑play installation without hardwiring.

How should I schedule auto defrost to minimise temperature fluctuation?

Plan maintenance during off‑peak hours; keep the lid closed during cycles and verify temperature recovery before restocking to protect product quality.
