Liebherr BFPvg 6501 Bakery Freezer, forced-air cooling, 997241151

When the first dough pieces are ready in the bakery from four o’clock in the morning, the cold chain must continue without interruption. The Liebherr BFPvg 6501 is a bakery freezer with forced-air cooling that freezes up to 20 Euronorm trays evenly and maintains a stable temperature even when the door is opened frequently. For businesses wishing to spread their pre-production over several days in a planned manner – for example, to prepare for peak periods at weekends or on public holidays – it is precisely this consistency that is crucial to ensure that all trays deliver the same quality, regardless of their position.

Circulating air instead of cold spots

Unlike purely static cooling, forced-air cooling actively distributes the cold air throughout the entire interior. As a result, corners and edge areas remain just as cold as the centre, and each of the 20 trays on the L-shaped support rails reaches the same temperature, regardless of its position in the cabinet. This really pays off, particularly when the cabinet is heavily loaded with freshly stored goods that are still warm.

Designed for daily tray changes

The support rails are designed to accommodate Euronorm baking trays with dimensions of 400 x 600 mm. Trays can be loaded and removed without jamming, which noticeably speeds up the handover between the early and day shifts. The handle strip and reversible door hinge can be adjusted to suit the workflow in the bakery.

Robust against flour, moisture and continuous operation

The housing is made of steel, whilst the inner chamber is made of chrome-nickel steel (1.4301 / AISI 304). This combination withstands the harsh conditions of everyday bakery life – including flour dust, moisture and frequent cleaning – whilst also being easy to wipe clean. LED ceiling lighting ensures a clear view right into the rear compartments when loading.

Alerts you before goods are damaged

The temperature range extends from -9 °C to -35 °C and is displayed digitally on the outside, so the setting can be read without opening the door. If the temperature deviates, the cabinet signals this visually and audibly, allowing staff to react in good time before the stored goods are damaged.

Connectivity when needed

A Wi-Fi/LAN interface can be retrofitted if required. Businesses that currently monitor their cold chain manually but wish to switch to digital monitoring with automatic alerts at a later date do not need to replace the cabinet; they simply need to activate the interface and integrate it into an existing network or monitoring software.

Plan delivery and installation realistically

When packed, the BFPvg 6501 measures approximately 740 x 900 x 2250 mm and has a gross weight of 150 kg. This is not a unit that can simply be carried down a narrow cellar staircase. Access routes, door widths and the route from the delivery vehicle to its final location in the bakery should be checked in advance to ensure that installation on the day of delivery goes smoothly.

Typical applications

The BFPvg 6501 is suitable for bakeries and patisseries that temporarily store dough pieces, puff pastry items or finished baked goods on baking trays; for large-scale bakeries with upstream production; for catering kitchens with their own in-house bakery production; and for chain bakeries that stock frozen goods for the bake-off station in the sales area. The BFPvg 6501 is also ideal as additional storage capacity alongside an existing, already fully utilised freezer.
