DESCRIPTION

ETC-UA Series - Non-Insulated Universal Tray Transport Cabinets
Durable, Lightweight, and Designed for Efficient Meal Tray Transport

1. Reliable Non-Insulated Tray Transport
The ETC-UA Series is designed for secure and efficient transport of meal trays in institutional foodservice, catering, and bulk meal distribution. As a non-insulated cabinet, it provides a lightweight solution for tray handling and storage, making it ideal for operations that do not require temperature retention.

2. Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Construction
Built from stainless steel with a welded tubular base frame, the ETC-UA Series ensures long-term durability and resistance to wear and tear. The reinforced frame absorbs shock and vibration, making it well-suited for high-traffic environments.

3. Universal Tray Slides for Maximum Versatility
Each unit features removable and adjustable universal tray slides, accommodating 18" x 26", 12" x 20", and GN containers. This flexibility allows operators to customize storage capacity based on tray size needs while ensuring efficient loading and unloading.

4. Secure, Easy-Access Door System
The stainless steel flush-mounted door swings open 180°, allowing for quick access to trays. A full-grip edge-mount latch system ensures secure closure during transport, preventing doors from opening unexpectedly.

5. Smooth and Controlled Mobility
Each unit is equipped with heavy-duty polyurethane casters, ensuring quiet, smooth transport. The ergonomic push handles enhance maneuverability, making it easy to transport trays between preparation and serving areas.

6. Protective Perimeter Bumper
A wraparound aluminum bumper extends beyond doors and handles, providing impact protection for both the unit and surrounding areas during transport.

7. Optional Customization for Specific Needs
Operators can customize their unit with options such as pass-thru doors, Dutch doors, security latches, larger casters, and cold plate cartridges for added versatility and security.

The ETC-UA Series delivers a lightweight, high-capacity solution for non-insulated meal tray transport, offering durability, efficiency, and ease of use for catering, institutional foodservice, and bulk tray distribution.

ETC-UA-13 - Non-Insulated Universal Tray Transport Cabinet (13 Tray Capacity)
Designed for medium-capacity tray transport, the ETC-UA-13 holds up to 13 trays (18" x 26", 14" x 18", or GN containers) while offering lightweight, non-insulated durability. With reinforced stainless steel construction, a full-perimeter bumper, and heavy-duty casters, this unit ensures smooth maneuverability and impact protection. An excellent choice for high-traffic kitchens, catering operations, and institutional foodservice.

FEATURES

Agency Approvals
UL EPH - UL EPH recognizes products certified to meet environmental and public health standards. The UL EPH logo shows the word "Classified" above the UL mark, which indicates that the product complies with ANSI/NSF standards, in addition to other applicable codes.
Bumpers
Full Bumper - Heavy duty full perimeter bumper extends beyond doors and handles for added protection. The bumper is mounted to the base frame for added durability - the bumper is not used as the base frame. In this way, the bumper absorbs all the shock in transport, protecting the integrity of the construction.
Caster
EZ Roll Heavy Duty Poly Caster - The EZ Roll Casters are standard on FWE cabinets and provide moderate floor protection with a high weight capacity.
EZ roll casters are shock absorbing and roll easier under heavy loads.

Available in 5", 6" and 8" diameters.

OPTIONS & ACCESSORIES

Bumpers
Top Corner Bumpers - Top corner bumpers are a good option for those customers not needing the protection of a full bumper, but still require protection for walls and surrounding equipment.
Caster
Center Floor Lock - Undercarriage lock-down keeps mobile equipment securely in place by gently lifting the unit high enough so the casters do not touch the ground.
Must be used with 6" casters.
All Swivel Casters - All swivel casters allow for greater maneuverability. Great for tight turns or severe corners (such as on and off trucks or narrow hallways).
A drawback to the all swivel configuration is that it is harder to control the direction of the equipment when rolled in a straight line.
