CFS Spiral Freezer

• Rapid freezing of bakery products such as bread, pastries, and cakes.
• Efficient freezing of prepared meals, pizzas, and convenience foods.
• Processing and freezing of various meat, poultry, and fish products.
• Freezing of fruits, vegetables, and other delicate produce.
• Suitable for high-volume production lines requiring continuous freezing.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can range from 500 kg/hr to several tonnes/hr, depending on product type and temperature requirements. Buyers should contact the seller for exact unit specifications.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type, a 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz supply is typical, with varying amperage requirements based on compressor and fan motor sizes.

Refrigeration medium

Typically designed for use with ammonia (R717) or various HFC refrigerants. The specific refrigerant used should be confirmed with the seller.

Belt width

This unit features a 600mm belt width, which is common for medium to high-capacity applications.

Product gap

A 75mm product gap allows for freezing of a range of products, including those with moderate height.

Footprint

Spiral freezers, for this class of equipment, typically require a significant floor area and height clearance. Exact dimensions should be obtained from the seller.

Operating temperature

Typically operates at air temperatures between -35°C and -45°C to achieve rapid freezing.

Construction materials

Commonly constructed from stainless steel for hygienic operation and corrosion resistance in food processing environments.

• What kind of products is this spiral freezer suitable for?

  This type of spiral freezer is generally suitable for a wide range of food products, including bakery items, prepared meals, meat, poultry, fish, and certain fruits and vegetables, particularly those requiring individual quick freezing (IQF).

• What does 'dismantled and removed from factory' mean for installation?

• Is the original control panel sufficient, or will it need upgrading?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used spiral freezer?

• What are the typical lead times for commissioning a dismantled spiral freezer?

• Are spare parts readily available for CFS equipment?

Spiral freezers are valued in food processing for their compact footprint and efficient product handling. Buyers typically appreciate their gentle freezing action, which preserves product quality and texture. When purchasing used equipment, inspection of the spiral belt condition and refrigeration system performance is essential. The stainless steel construction generally resists corrosion well in demanding environments. Common considerations include maintenance costs and spare parts availability, though reliability across production runs remains a noted strength.
