Liebherr BFFsg 5501 bakery freezer cabinet, static cooling, 402 l

In the bakery, the working day often begins before sunrise, and a reliable freezer for dough pieces and baked goods is essential. If the temperature fluctuates too much or draughts pass through the frozen goods, the quality of the dough suffers, and the products can no longer be baked properly the following morning. The Liebherr BFFsg 5501 bakery freezer is tailored precisely to these requirements: with 402 litres of usable freezer space, stable static cooling and an optional flour dust filter, it adapts to the day-to-day operations of bakeries and patisseries without the business having to make any further compromises on product quality.

Tailored to the bakery

The interior is designed for the crosswise loading of baking trays measuring 600 x 400 mm, the standard size commonly used in bakeries. This allows dough pieces and finished baked goods to be stored directly on the existing trays without having to repackage them first, which saves a considerable amount of time during peak periods. For dusty environments, such as those typically encountered when handling flour, a flour dust filter is available as an option. According to the manufacturer, this protects the sensitive refrigeration technology inside the unit from contamination, thereby extending the service life of the components. This is a key feature that distinguishes the BFFsg 5501 from standard catering refrigeration units, which are not designed to cope with daily exposure to flour dust.

Static cooling for consistent temperatures

The temperature range of the freezer compartment extends from -9 °C to -26 °C and is displayed digitally on the outside, allowing the setting to be checked at any time without opening the door. Unlike in forced air circulation units, static cooling ensures quiet, even temperature distribution without any disruptive draughts, which protects sensitive dough pieces from drying out on the surface. This is particularly important for yeast-based doughs, which can be sensitive to dry air. In the event of a fault, the unit issues visual and audible warnings, enabling staff to respond promptly before produce spoils, even when no one is actively standing in front of the unit.

Robust construction for continuous operation

The housing and door are made of steel, whilst the inner container is made of robust, white plastic that is easy to clean. The door hinge is fitted on the right-hand side but can be reversed if required, allowing the cabinet to be flexibly integrated into the kitchen layout, regardless of the workflow in the bakery in question. An aluminium handle and a mechanical lock round off the features designed for everyday use. A retrofittable Wi-Fi/LAN interface is available for digital monitoring of the cooling process, allowing the unit to be integrated into an existing monitoring system where required, for example to document temperature logs for internal quality control.

Cleaning and cost-effective operation

The white plastic inner container can be wiped clean without the need for harsh cleaning agents, which keeps the daily hygiene workload in the bakery to a minimum. With a rated current of 2.0 A at 220–240 V and an annual energy consumption of 1,241 kWh, operating costs over the unit’s service life can be easily calculated. The connection cable, which is around 3 metres long, allows for flexible positioning, even if the nearest socket is not directly next to the intended location. The BFFsg 5501 is manufactured at the Liebherr plant in Lienz, which specialises in refrigeration and freezing technology for professional use.

Position within the Liebherr Gastro range

Within the Liebherr Gastro range, the BFFsg 5501 is positioned as a dedicated deep-freezer, without a separate refrigeration compartment. Those who also require a refrigeration section will find the Liebherr FCFCvg 4032, a fridge-freezer combination with two separately adjustable zones. The BFFsg 5501 really comes into its own where high-volume deep-freeze storage is required and the bakery uses standardised baking trays in the 600 x 400 mm format.

Typical applications

The BFFsg 5501 comes into its own wherever bakeries need to reliably deep-freeze large quantities of dough pieces and baked goods, for example when a patisserie pre-produces goods the evening before for the next day’s sales and the goods need to be stored safely until they are ready to be baked:

• Deep-freeze storage of dough pieces, baked goods and ingredients in bakeries and patisseries
• Accommodation of standardised bakery trays in the 600 x 400 mm format without repackaging
• Stable, draught-free temperatures for consistent dough quality
• Suitable for use in dusty production areas thanks to the optionally available flour dust filter
• Supplementary unit for bakeries and patisseries with high deep-freeze requirements
