Three doors for longer prep lines
Spreading storage across three doors means staff working along a longer prep line can each reach their own section without crowding one door. The doors are hinged left, left and right. Three GN 1/1 size shelves, each 530 x 325mm, come as standard, with up to ten more shelves and tray slides available as options.
More capacity without higher running costs
The KC3H is energy grade C, with an Energy Efficiency Index (EEI) of 44.11 against 49.4 on the two door KC2H. Its annual consumption is also slightly lower than the KC2H's, despite the extra door and capacity, so moving up a size does not mean a bigger electricity bill. Like every KORE model it uses R290 refrigerant and meets Climate Class 5 for ambients up to 40°C.
Island and wall siting
Ordering options let you match the KC3H to its position. A 100mm splashback suits counters placed against a wall, and a stainless steel back with unit cover replaces the standard aluminium back when the counter stands as an island. Whichever position you choose, the refrigeration system is housed on the left hand side when facing the unit, so allow for this when the counter sits beside other equipment or a wall.
KC3H, KC2H or EcoPro G3?
Where space is tighter, the KC2H offers two doors and 280 litres in a 1330mm length. For the heaviest use, or kitchens that run above 40°C, the EcoPro G3 EP 1/3 H is the three door step up, rated to 43°C. The KORE vs EcoPro guide covers the trade-offs.
This unit replaced the Foster Xtra XR3H
What are the dimensions of the Foster KC3H?
The KC3H measures 1775mm wide, 700mm deep and 850mm high. It shares its height and depth with the two door KC2H, so the extra 445mm of length is where the third door and the additional storage come from.
Does the Foster KC3H cost more to run than the KC2H?
No. The KC3H has an annual energy consumption of 1,116 kWh against 1,128 kWh for the KC2H, so the three door model uses slightly less energy over a year despite holding more.
How many shelves fit in the Foster KC3H?
Three GN 1/1 size shelves of 530 x 325mm are supplied, and up to ten additional nylon coated shelves with tray slides can be added, for thirteen in total.
Which Foster model replaced the Xtra XR3H?
The Xtra XR3H has been succeeded by the KC3H, the three door counter in the KORE by Foster Gamko range. It holds +2°C to +8°C across 435 litres gross, with a stainless steel worktop and a UK-built cabinet.
