BLAST CHILLER/FREEZER USER GUIDE
ABOUT BLAST FREEZER/CHILLER:
Regarding the modern technological possibilities, the highest level of quality could be achieved using freezing, blasting
and deep-freezing where the food is reserved safe for storage and later consumption. Blast freezing is commonly used
in food catering and, recently, in the preparation of 'instant' foods, as it ensures the safety and the quality of the food
product.
The main principle of using Blast-Freezing method is to freeze the food from 100° C to -18° C in 240 minutes so that
activity and growth of microorganisms may be prevented which causes rinsing of the food. This is called Blast Freezing.
Also, reduce the core temperature of the food from 100° C to +3° C in 90 minutes is called Blast Chilling.

• Before performing cleaning or routine maintenance operations, disconnect the machine from the power supply at the
master switch and the main knife switch (if present);
• Never pull on the power cable to disconnect the machine from the power supply.
THESE OPERATIONS MUST BE PERFORMED BY A CERTIFIED INSTALLATION TECHNICIAN ONLY.
PLAQUES
Check that the data specified on the plate correspond
to the characteristics of the power supply
(V, kw, hz, no. phases and power available).

POSITIONING:
The machine must be installed and commissioned in complete compliance with safety regulations, procedures and
standing laws. The installation technician bears the responsibility of ensuring compliance with fire safety requirements;
seek all necessary advice from the local fire-fighting authorities. Position the machine in the allocated site. Adjust the
machine feet until the appliance is perfectly level. In the case of particularly heavy equipment, use appropriate lifting
means. If the appliance is not perfectly level, correct operation and condensate flow-off will not be assured.
AVOID:
• Direct exposure to sunlight;
• Closed sites with high temperatures and poor air circulation;
• Installing the machine near sources of heat.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE AND AIR CIRCULATION:
For air-cooled appliances, the maximum ambient temperature for operation is 32°c. Correct operation cannot be
guaranteed at higher temperatures. The machine may operate safely to a maximum temperature of 38°c. Remote
condensing units must be installed in special rooms or outdoors, protected against direct sunlight by a shelter or roof
structure (at the cost of the purchaser). Sufficient air circulation must be guaranteed at all times.
CONDENSATE DRAINAGE CONNECTION
Fit a condensate/wash water drainage hose as picture.

SHUT DOWN PROCEDURES
In the event of emergency, remove the plug from the power socket.
OPERATING TIPS
Before starting up the appliance, clean the inside of the cell thoroughly.
PRE-COOLING
Before using the appliance for the first time, or after a prolonged period of disuse, pre-cool the cell by running
an empty cycle until the set operating temperature has been reached. To ensure optimal performance
without any alteration to food quality:
Arrange food products in such a way as to favor the circulation of cold air throughout the cell;
Open the door as little as possible.
LOADING THE APPLIANCE
Ensure that foods to be chilled and/or frozen are separate and do not have a thickness greater than 50-80
mm. Do not load the appliance beyond the quantity recommended by the manufacturer.

18
Ensure that there is sufficient clearance between trays to enable free air circulation. If the appliance is not
completely full, distribute the trays and foods evenly throughout the available space.
Position trays inside the tray compartment as far as they will go, as close as possible to the evaporator.

19
Position the core probe at the center of the largest product or food item; make sure that the tip of the probe
does not protrude or touch the tray. The probe must be cleaned and sanitized before each new cycle
(operation) to prevent inadvertent contamination.
Avoid covering the trays and/or containers with insulating covers or film. The more the product is insulated,
the more time is required for chilling or freezing. Trays must be packaged when the product has been chilled,
before being placed in storage.
IMPORTANT WARNING:
THE DIGITAL PARAMETER SETTING HAS BEEN PROGRAMMED FOR THE UNIT TO PERFORM THE BEST WAY.
DO NOT CHANGE ANY OF THE PARAMETER SETTING OTHER THEN SIMPLY SETTING THE TEMPERATURE. TO
CHANGE THE PARAMETERS SETTINGS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERFORMANCE DECRESAES AND CREATE
SERIOUS PROBLEMS IN THE UNIT.
