VERTICAL PLATE FREEZER Products are simply placed or poured into vertical pockets between aluminium freezing plates Symmetrical frozen blocks stack easily, maximising on amount of available storage space Minimal energy consumption, easy installation and low capital and maintenance costs Rapid freezing preserves products quality and minimises production time Wide range of models Framework The all steel welded heavy duty framework is fully hot dipped galvanized for protection and is designed with hygiene in mind and the whole freezer can be quickly and easily hosed down if required. Freezing plates These are manufactured from extruded aluminium alloy sections with internal passages for refrigerant. The freezing plate surfaces coming into contacts with the product are flat and smooth which ensures good contact for heat transfer and high standards of hygiene. Refrigerant hoses Flexible refrigrant hoses are connected between the freezing plates and refrigerant headers. The hose consists of a PTFE material covered externally with a double braided stainless steel with stainless steel fittings. Hydraulic cylinders Hydraulic cylinders perform the functions of opening and closing the freezing plates and raising the lowering the lifting arms. The hydraulic cylinders will have stainless steel rods. Lifting arms The horizontal and vertical members of each lifting arm are fitted with a high density polyethylene extrusion, forming the bottom of the freezing station.
