What Is Contact Plate Freezer?

Exploring an effective freezing solution for your business? Consider the cold plate freezer, also referred to as the contact plate freezer. This industrial freezer excels in both speed and quality, employing a combination of air blowing and aluminum plates to rapidly freeze food items. The refrigerant-cooled aluminum plates play a crucial role in swiftly lowering the food temperature, complemented by a stream of cold air for an extra cooling boost. This synergistic approach ensures a quick freezing process, minimizing the risk of food drying while maintaining exceptional freezing quality.

In the ever-evolving landscape of freezing technology, the semi-contact plate freezer has emerged as a noteworthy solution with broad applicability across industries. This innovative freezing method seamlessly integrates the efficiency of plate freezing with the advantages of a more compact size, precise temperature control, and a budget-friendly pricing structure. Whether your preference is for a cold plate freezer or a contact plate freezer, this technology promises a compelling blend of performance and cost-effectiveness for your business needs.

How Does Contact Plate Freezer Work?

 

As shown in the figure, the contact plate freezer consists of three core components: the compressor unit, the cold air fan, and the aluminum plate. The top of the aluminum plate is flat, and the bottom is an aluminum tube structure. The design takes into account both air convection and cold radiation, making it more efficient than a single cold air blower.

 

It is mainly used in onshore and offshore shelf plate quick-freezing warehouses. The aluminum plate is cooled by a refrigerant, which in turn cools the food. Cold air is blown over the food to further reduce its temperature. The combination of these two methods results in a rapid freezing process that minimizes food drying consumption and ensures good freezing quality.

Advantages of Contact Plate Freezer?

 

Fast Freezing Speed: Contact plate freezers can freeze food much faster than traditional air blast freezers. This is because the aluminum plates transfer heat to the food much more efficiently than air.

Minimal Food Drying: Contact plate freezers minimize food drying because the food is in direct contact with the cold aluminum plates. This is in contrast to air blast freezers, which can cause significant food drying, especially when the food is not properly packaged.

Better Freezing Quality: Contact plate freezers produce frozen food with good texture, flavor, and nutritional value. This is because the rapid freezing process prevents the formation of large ice crystals, which can damage the food's cell structure.
