Machine designed to cool product and take it to the desired packaging temperature.

The F – Cooler features conveying belts that transport product while a ventilation system cools it down.
The ventilation system is made ofbattery functioning with freon/glycolyzed water and ventilators controlled by inverter for air cooling (the 6-meter version has 2 ventilation systems).
The machine features a collecting surface that can accumulate up to 20 minutes of production if necessary, maintaining the product inside the cooler at constant temperature and in clean environment, always optimizing treatment times to maximize energetic efficiency.
In order to ease the washing process, the machine features a stainless-steel structure and rinsing ramps to reduce machine washing time. The bottom panel is inclined on the sides to drain washing water.
Openable lateral panels hinged for accessibility.
