The Cronus SM is the compact entry into the Cronus refrigerated wall-display range: a 400-litre chilled cabinet (+2/+8°C) just 866 mm wide, designed to present and preserve fresh products on tight retail counters. With static cooling, tempered-glass sliding doors and integrated LED lighting, it gives bakeries, sandwich shops and delis an attractive, well-controlled cold display without taking up the floor space of a wider cabinet.
Why static cooling on the Cronus SM
The SM uses static refrigeration — cooling by natural air circulation rather than a forced fan. This gentle approach is the right choice for delicate products: pastries, viennoiserie, filled sandwiches and plated items keep their moisture and texture, where a strong airflow could dry them out. Temperature is held between +2 and +8°C, the positive (chilled) range required for fresh foods, with electronic control for a stable, repeatable setting.
At 866 mm wide and 665 mm deep, the SM is the most compact Cronus — it fits a counter end or a narrow service area where a 1300 mm cabinet would not. The 400-litre capacity, spread over its shelves, suits a focused fresh range rather than high-volume bulk storage.
Which establishments is the Cronus SM for
Bakeries and patisseries: gentle static cooling protects creams, pastries and viennoiserie; the LED-lit glass display drives impulse sales.
Sandwich shops and snack bars: a compact chilled display for filled sandwiches, salads and cold drinks on a tight counter.
Delis and grocery corners: present fresh products at a controlled +2/+8°C with clear visibility through the glass.
Premises short on space: the 866 mm width fits where wider cabinets cannot, while keeping a full 400 L of chilled display.

Frequently asked questions
- Static or ventilated cooling — which should I choose?
- Static cooling (the SM) is gentler: it preserves the moisture of delicate products like pastries and sandwiches, and is quieter. Ventilated cooling (Cronus 1150 / Plus) gives a more even temperature throughout the cabinet and recovers faster after the doors are opened — better for dense loading and high turnover. For a bakery or sandwich display, static is often preferred; for high-volume or warm rooms, ventilated.
- Is 400 L enough for a sandwich shop?
- Yes for a focused fresh range — filled sandwiches, salads, desserts and cold drinks on the shelves of a compact counter. If you carry a wide range or restock heavily through the day, the 890 L Cronus 1150 offers more than double the capacity.
- What does +2/+8°C mean for the products?
- It is the positive (chilled) range for fresh foods — the standard for sandwiches, pastries, dairy, charcuterie and prepared dishes. It is not a freezer: products are kept cold and fresh, not frozen. Electronic control holds the setting steadily.
