This tunnel blast freezer is designed for rapid freezing of foods—fruits, vegetables, meats, seafood and prepared meals—using IQF (Individual Quick Freeze) technology to preserve quality, texture and nutrition for large-scale processing and distribution.
IQF stands for Individual Quick Freezing. It freezes individual pieces quickly so they don't clump together, maintaining shape, texture and portion control which is ideal for packaging, retail and further processing.
Typical specs: voltage 380V (three-phase), power 20–46 kW, capacity customizable from about 100–5,000 kg/h (actual throughput depends on product and target core temperature), cooling capacity listed 100–1,500 kg/h, operating temperature down to -40±2 °C.
Actual throughput depends on product type, piece size, initial temperature, desired core temperature, loading density and conveyor speed. The listed ranges are achievable but final capacity should be confirmed via application testing or supplier evaluation.
Dimensions are customizable. The machine can be tailored to your line layout, product size and required throughput—contact the supplier with your requirements to get a custom layout and quote.
The machine is constructed from stainless steel 304, offering corrosion resistance and hygienic surfaces suitable for food-processing environments.
Requires 380V three-phase power. Installation typically needs sufficient floor strength, proper drainage, a suitable location for the refrigeration condensing unit and access for service. Exact requirements depend on the model and should be confirmed with the supplier/engineer.
The unit is designed for easy operation; typical systems include automated controls for conveyor speed and temperature. Specific control hardware (PLC/touchscreen) and options vary—ask the supplier for details on the control package included.
Energy consumption depends on the model and operating conditions. Use the machine's rated power (20–46 kW) as a guideline: approximate energy use is rated kW × hours of operation. For precise energy estimates, request a consumption profile from the manufacturer based on your process.
Regular cleaning and sanitation of the conveyor and contact surfaces is required, following food-safety protocols. Periodic checks on the refrigeration system, belts, motors and electrical components are recommended. The supplier can provide a maintenance schedule and recommended cleaning procedures (CIP options may be available).
Yes—OEM spare parts and technical support are typically available. Contact the manufacturer or authorized distributor to confirm parts availability, lead times and service agreements for your region.
Expect safety guards, emergency stops and lockout/tagout provisions. Operators should be trained on safe operation, cleaning procedures and emergency response. The supplier can provide operation manuals and training options.
Yes. The tunnel can handle a wide range of foods (fruits, vegetables, meats, seafood, prepared portions). It can be customized for different conveyor widths and capacities to integrate with single or multiple production lines.
Because units are customizable, contact the supplier or authorized dealer with your product type, required capacity, and site details. They will provide a quote, estimated lead time, available certifications (e.g., CE/ISO if applicable) and warranty terms.
