H330 AuO
MEDIUM STORAGE
330 Litres
Hot meal food transport solutions designed for the catering and food service industry.
The Hot Meals Line of triple-insulated active temperature control containers are designed to safely transport pre-cooked food from centralized kitchens and food prep facilities to end-of-line service points.
With a temperature range of 65°C to 85°C, our containers help preserve the quality and integrity of pre-cooked food and keep it at the optimal temperature to avoid potential health and safety risks. The H330 AuO HML container utilizes self-regulating PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) ceramic heating elements controlled by the electronic thermostat and digital display.
Like all Coldtainer models, they are environmentally sustainable and can utilize either 120V shore power during on-site storage or the delivery vehicle’s 12V power supply while in transit. The HML H0330 AuO model offers autonomous operation using an internal battery that can maintain set-point temperatures for eight to ten hours on a single charge.
Built for light commercial vehicles, these units are suitable for EV (electric vehicle) applications and can be incorporated directly into insulated reefer vans to offer a multi-temperature zone solution. The digital display, which functions as an optional HACCP/Bluetooth interface accessory, enables the downloading of transport temperature data. The HML H0330 AuO is also offered as an FDN model for transporting frozen items and an XFDN model for transporting deep-frozen items.

The Coldtainer H330 AuO is a high-capacity, commercial-grade mobile hot box designed for serious food service logistics and bulk hot-food distribution. Offering an expansive 330-liter (11.7 cu. ft.) internal vault, it features molded side-wall tracks specifically engineered to hold standard Gastronorm (GN 1/1) food pans or full-size commercial baking sheets. It is heavily relied upon by:
Large-Scale Event Caterers: Moving complete multi-course banquets, weddings, or corporate gala dinners from central production kitchens to off-site venues.
Centralized Institutional Kitchens: Transporting bulk hot meal programs to school districts, hospitals, nursing homes, and university campuses.
Disaster Relief & Corporate Feeds: Delivering bulk, steaming-hot food to remote emergency response areas or temporary outdoor worker sites.
Its main industry advantage is bulk capacity combined with complete cord-free mobility—allowing a kitchen crew to wheel an entire evening's worth of hot entrees right into a banquet hall at perfect, food-safe serving temperatures.
Unlike other Coldtainer lines that require navigating a complex matrix of cooling and heating codes, the H330 series simplifies the decision-making process because it is engineered in one highly optimized, dedicated configuration:
The Temperature Range: The unit actively heats and holds internal temperatures precisely between +65°C to +85°C, keeping your food well clear of the local health department's HACCP bacteria danger zone.
The Power Framework (AuO Only): The H330 is available exclusively as an Autonomous (AuO) model. It comes standard with a heavy-duty, built-in 12V, 150Ah VRLA Gel or high-capacity Lithium battery pack and an internal smart charger. You do not have to worry about vehicle voltage or draining an electric vehicle's (EV) driving range because the hot box runs entirely on its own self-contained power grid for up to 8 hours off-grid.
Yes, but given its substantial size and the weight of its internal battery system, it is strictly an equipment-handled or rolled asset. Empty, the H330 AuO weighs between 110 kg and 135 kg (242 lbs to 297 lbs) depending on the battery type installed.
Vehicle Pairing Footprint: With external dimensions of 1000W x 1020L x 910H (mm), it is explicitly sized to fit into standard transit vans (like a Ford Transit or Mercedes Sprinter), box trucks, or open flatbeds.
Seamless Material Handling: The unit is natively designed to be paired with heavy-duty caster wheel kits or forklift pallet bases. This allows kitchen staff to roll it directly along the cooking line for loading, wheel it up a ramp or liftgate into a van, lock it down with a tie-down kit, and roll it right onto the venue floor.
Static Pre-Heating: At the kitchen or depot, the internal charger plugs directly into a standard 110V–240V AC wall outlet. This allows you to pre-heat the internal core of the unit using building power before loading it with hot food.
The H330 AuO ensures absolute regulatory alignment with local health departments and strict HACCP safety tracking through premium physical and electrical engineering:
Industrial PTC Heating Matrices: The unit utilizes heavy-duty, self-regulating Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) heating elements. These elements provide continuous, gentle heat without the risk of wire filaments burning out, overheating, or scorching delicate food pans.
Massive Thermal Insulation: Rotomolded from a single piece of double-walled polyethylene, it features an ultra-thick 100 mm (3.9 inches) layer of injected polyurethane foam. This dense thermal envelope isolates the interior from cold ambient weather, meaning internal temperatures drop incredibly slowly even if the unit is completely turned off.
Forced Air Circulation: High-output internal fans constantly force hot air to circulate throughout the entire 330-liter vault. This eliminates cold spots and ensures rapid temperature recovery when the heavy front door is opened during multi-stop delivery routes.
HACCP Electronic Monitoring: It supports Coldtainer's optional integrated Bluetooth logger module. This streams real-time temperature data directly to a smartphone app, allowing drivers to monitor heat states from the cab and giving compliance managers the ability to download complete history logs for clients or health inspectors.
Isothermal container for professional transport.
Temperature adjustment range: from + 65°C a + 85°C.
