The Cryogenic Advantage for Food Processing...

Features & Benefits of our Modular ® Cryogenic Freezer System:

• Modular Design

Freezing capabilities can be increased or decreased at any time.

Allows for easy installation in difficult locations.

• Single or Three-Tier System

Single tier for heavy, tall, or boxed products.

Three-tier for greater production capacity in less floor space.

• Two-stage Cryogen Injection System

Automatic high / low N2 or CO2 injection control system follows product heat load — minimizing cryogen consumption.

Uses solenoid valves for greater simplicity and higher reliability.

• Molded Fiberglass Body

Low thermal mass for rapid cool down. Curved surfaces make cleaning easy.

Internal steel frame provides strength and durability.

Easy to repair. Meets all USDA standards.

• Zoned Temperature Control

 Cryogen flow automatically adjusts in each zone to meet changing process heat load.

• Large Access Doors

 Full access to freezer interior. Easier and faster clean-up.

Counterbalanced for safe and simple maintenance.

Doors NEVER freeze shut.

• Stainless Steel Conveyor Belt

Ashworth® belt is available in a range of meshes. Solid belt option also available.

• Exterior Fan Motors

 Motor heat is dissipated outside the cold zone, reducing cryogen consumption.

Safety Feature Complete access for easy maintenance and longer life.

Automatic motor brakes for personnel safety when opening side doors.

• Electric Drive Systems

 Electric: Standard 1/2  HP AC fan motor; low cost, greatest flexibility.

• Dual Cryogen Capability

 Flexible cryogen choice. Can be converted to CO2 or N2.

• Variable Speed Electric Fans

Maximizes heat transfer for light and delicate products.

• In-Line Capability

Maximum production efficiency eliminates handling between stations.

• Versatility

Can be used in combination with existing mechanical freezers to meet peak demands.

• Cryogenic Freezing

(N2 at -320° F; CO2 at -109° F)

Lower capital investment than with costly mechanical refrigeration equipment.

Dehydration is minimized to less than 1/2 of 1% as compared to 1% to 8%with mechanical freezing. Food maintains better texture, taste, and aromatic properties.

Greater speed increases production capabilities.

Set point temperature as low as -240° F.
