DESIGN QUALITY

Completely factory assembled and tested prior to shipping. The conveyor belting is made of stainless steel woven wire material. The conveyor supports is constructed with galvanized steel lined, low friction, food grade, plastic wear strips designed for minimum belt wear. The refrigeration coils are constructed from aluminum, designed for maximum heal-transfer efficiency and operation intervals. The frigid air is delivered from aluminum high-efficiency fans. The defrost left is constructed from galvanized steel pipes and brass nozzles. The freezer enclosure is constructed with 4 inch thick high-efficiency urethane insulation. The enclosure skin is stainless steel. Large access doors are located at critical locations for easy inspection, cleaning, and maintenance. The freezer is built to USDA, FDA, UL, CFIA .F.D.A., O.S.H.A. and C.S.A - Specifications & Standards.

The freezer consists of a combination of two freezing sections - Pro-cool and Freeze. 

  • Conveyor System
    Supports the conveyor belt system, each conveyor will be equipped with stainless steel product guards protected with 1/4” thick UHMW wear strips against the belting. Conveyor belting supported with UHMW polyethylene.
  • Conveyor Drives
    Each belt is electrically driven.  The electric motors are directly coupled through Eurodrive heavy-duty high ratio gearboxes and speeds are controlled by remote speed dials at the control panel. And the freezing time is monitored by retention time digital meter.
  • Conveyor Mesh Belting
    Stainless steel T304 B72-24-16 balance wave mesh belt complete with stainless steel roller chain.
  • Product Loading and Belt Washer Dryer Section
    Washes and drys the pre-cool belt during operation whenever belt is ice up.

  • Aluminum Coils
    A industry quality aluminum evaporator made of 1” O.D.X.065” wall 303 alloy tubes, .016” thick 1100 alloy fins and 1/8“ thick aluminum tube sheet. The fins are designed with single plate fins as to assure even frost built up through out the inside of coil surface, for maximum production time intervals and easy to clean.
  • Centrifugal Fans
    Aluminum fans are Heavy Duty Centrifugal Fans specially designed for the tunnel freezer. It is highly efficient and delivers a constant, proper airflow throughout the freezing process.
  • Product Discharge Chute
    Delivers frozen product out of freezer discharge belt.
  • Catwalks
    One wide side catwalk to get access to conveyor.
  • Motor Control Center
    A motor control center for all fan motors. It consists of main circuit breaker, starters, indicating lights and selector switch. NEMA 4 specification.
  • Enclosure
    A. 6” thick Polystyrene insulated enclosure complete with stainless steel floor.
    B. White painted Enamel Finished on Galvanized. Steel finish in and out of freezer.
    C. Freezer walk-in door and three-access door located at convenient location for service and clean up.
    D. Lights and thermometer.
  • Product Agitator
    Product will not freeze together as a combination of roller keeps product in separation at all time during the crust freezing.
