Blue Air BLMT72-D4LM-HC 72" Mega Top Sandwich & Salad Prep Table, 4 Drawers with Right-Hand Door
Blue Air BLMT72-D4LM-HC — 72" Mega Top Prep Table, Drawer Bank Left, Door Right
The Blue Air BLMT72-D4LM-HC is the mirror-image build in Blue Air's 72" mega top line: four 6" pan drawers occupy the left and center sections while the single self-closing swing door sits on the right. That matters when your line runs toward a wall or a dish window and you need the door to swing clear of the traffic. Above the cabinet, a mega top rail carrying 30 included 1/6 size pans works over 20.2 cu. ft. of stainless storage held at 33 °F to 39 °F by a rear-mounted R-290 system.
Key Features of the BLMT72-D4LM-HC
Handedness is only the headline difference — underneath, this table is built around airflow, condensation control and hardware that survives a full service.
Drawers on the Left, Door on the Right
Four drawers deep enough to swallow 6" pans fill the left and center of the 72" cabinet, and the remaining right-hand section is closed by one self-closing swing door over an adjustable epoxy-coated wire shelf. Order this LM variant when a right-side door swing keeps the aisle clear; the D4RM reverses it.
Mega Top Rail with 30 Pans Supplied
The extra-wide top holds thirty 1/6 size pans, and Blue Air ships all thirty with the table. An insulated pan cover with a stainless steel divider drops over the well to stop food spillage from reaching the storage area beneath, and a 9-1/2" deep, 1/2" thick cutting board rides on the included side rail bracket.
Air Guard and Forced-Air Cooling
An air guard on the rear wall directs the airflow so cold air is pushed into the enclosed storage volume instead of stalling in corners, which is what keeps a 20.2 cu. ft. box even from drawer to shelf. The evaporator is electrodeposition coated to hold its heat-transfer rate and slow corrosion over the life of the unit.
Hot Gas Frame Heating and HFC-Free Insulation
Rather than a resistance heater, the frame is warmed by a hot gas circuit fed from the refrigeration loop — it keeps condensation off the cabinet face while adding almost nothing to the 5.4 amp draw. The walls are foamed with cyclopentane, which contains no hydrofluorocarbons.
Self-Diagnostic Control with Door-Open Alarm
A self-diagnostic digital temperature control and monitor system reports cabinet temperature on a front display and applies an automatic evaporator fan motor delay to hold back frost. If a drawer or the right-hand door is left ajar, a visual and audible alarm sounds before product is at risk.
1/4 HP R-290 on an Easy-Sliding Base
The self-contained condensing unit is rear mounted on an easy-sliding maintenance base, so a technician pulls it out rather than pulling the table apart. It runs 1/4 HP on R-290 hydrocarbon refrigerant, which carries no ozone-depletion potential, and plugs into a normal 115 V/60 Hz outlet through a 9.8 ft (3 m) three-wire cord.
Before you set the footprint: the published 33-11/64" depth excludes 2-3/8" for the cutting board and 2-7/32" for the rear spacers, and the 39-11/64" height excludes 5" for the casters — so budget roughly 37-3/4" of depth and 44-1/4" of height in place. The right-hand door needs its swing arc, and the rear-mounted compressor needs the back of the cabinet reachable for service.
Ideal Applications
The right-hand door layout suits any station where the door end butts up against a wall, a corner or the end of a cook line.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which side is the door on the BLMT72-D4LM-HC?
The single self-closing swing door is on the right-hand end of the cabinet, with the four drawers filling the left and center sections. The BLMT72-D4RM-HC is the same table with the door and drawer bank reversed, so pick whichever swing keeps your aisle and adjacent equipment clear.
How many pans come with the table, and what size?
Thirty 1/6 size pans are included for the mega top rail, together with an insulated pan cover that has a stainless steel divider. The four drawers are sized for 6" deep pans, but those are not part of the package — order them separately in the sizes your prep list calls for.
Is R-290 refrigerant safe in a commercial kitchen?
Yes. R-290 is a purified propane charged in very small quantities in self-contained units like this one, and it is used because it has zero ozone-depletion potential and a very low global warming potential. The BLMT72-D4LM-HC is cETLus listed and ETL-Sanitation listed with that charge in place.
What keeps condensation off the cabinet in a humid kitchen?
Blue Air routes hot gas through the frame instead of fitting an electric heater, so the door and drawer perimeters stay above dew point without a measurable increase in energy use. Cyclopentane foam insulation and an air guard on the rear wall handle the rest by keeping the wall surfaces and the airflow stable.
What outlet does it need?
A standard 115 V, 60 Hz single-phase receptacle. The 1/4 HP system draws 5.4 amps and arrives with a 9.8 ft (3 m) flexible three-wire cord and a molded NEMA 5-15 plug, so a common 15-amp outlet is enough — no dedicated circuit or hard wiring required.
How much space and how much weight should I plan for?
The cabinet is 72-3/8" wide, and once you add the cutting board, rear spacers and casters it occupies about 37-3/4" of depth and stands roughly 44-1/4" tall. It weighs 362 lbs net and 441 lbs crated, so plan on a liftgate or dock and help for the uncrating.
