Startfrost - Starfrost Belt Cooler

• Cooling of bakery products such as bread, pastries, and biscuits post-baking.
• Rapid chilling of cooked meat and fish products, including ready meals and processed items.
• Temperature reduction for confectionery and snack foods like chocolates, sweets, and fried snacks.
• Pre-cooling of fruits and vegetables to extend shelf life before further processing or packaging.
• Controlled cooling in pharmaceutical and chemical processes requiring precise temperature management.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can range significantly based on product type and desired temperature drop, commonly from 200 kg/hr to over 1000 kg/hr for similar units.

Belt width

Units of this type commonly feature belt widths between 0.6m and 1.2m, with 1m being a frequent specification.

Number of tiers

Multi-tier systems, such as 3-tier configurations, are typical for maximising cooling capacity within a compact footprint.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase industrial electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with associated control voltage.

Refrigeration medium

Often designed for use with common industrial refrigerants or chilled water/glycol systems.

Construction material

The cabinet and internal components are typically constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability, with plastic or modular belting.

Footprint

While specific dimensions vary, multi-tier belt coolers are designed to offer high cooling capacity in a relatively compact linear or spiral footprint.

• What types of products are best suited for a belt cooler?

  Belt coolers are ideal for products that can be conveyed continuously and require consistent, gentle cooling, such as bakery items, prepared foods, and certain confectionery.

Chillers and recirculating coolers hold strong reputation in laboratory and biotech sectors for temperature stability and process reliability. Buyers typically prioritise checking refrigeration system condition, pump functionality, and temperature control accuracy when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment favours models with robust construction and established service records. Common strengths include consistent cooling performance, energy efficiency relative to age, and durability when properly maintained. Verification of calibration history and cooling capacity specifications remains essential before purchase to ensure suitability for sensitive applications.
