IQF Frost AB has changed its company name to OctoFrost AB and has also launched its new IQF freezer, the OctoFrost™.
The new freezer has been designed to meet the increasing demands from food producers for reliable food safety, long run time and high yield.
The company says that the OctoFrost™ is unique in its mono-block design and easy interior access for reliable and swift cleaning. It has been equipped with air knives that blow high pressure air in the coil during production, a feature that will help keep the coil free from product particles, prevent it from building up snow and optimise run time between defrost. To decrease down time and speed up the cleaning process more spray nozzles for warm water have been installed.
Inside the freezers, the patented removable bedplates have been given a new click design that will significantly decrease handling time for the plant staff. Energy friendly LED-lights have also been installed to improve cleaning inside the freezer.
The octagonal design and aerodynamics of the OctoFrost™ is optimised for high capacity per hour, yet is sustainable with usually more than 10% less energy consumption then similar products on the market. A dry air infusion system has been installed in the operating panel, lights and motors, eliminating the challenge that many food producers face of condensation, due to the variation of temperature in the freezer. Additionally, the freezer has been reinforced with stronger fins in the coil and an anti-slip shockproof floor.
