A modular refrigeration unit which is independently removable from an equipment zone in a foodstuffs refrigerator is described. The modular refrigeration unit integrally includes compressor, condenser, evaporator, metering means and means for connecting said components in the relationship of a refrigeration cycle, and an air circulating means to provide a recirculating flow of air between the refrigeration unit and the food zone of the refrigerator. The modular unit may be used in a system of standardized refrigerators at multiple installations at separate locations, in which the refrigeration system of each unit is separately removeable from each unit and interchangeable with the others. Service and maintenance of the refrigerator is facilitated and useable storage space and sanitation in the food zone is increased.
