The CRYO TUNNEL-FP1 from Airgas, an Air Liquide company, represents a significant advancement in cryogenic food processing technology. Engineered to balance high-performance output with a compact footprint, this modular freezing tunnel provides the versatility to freeze, crust freeze, or chill nearly any food category—from proteins and prepared meals to delicate bakery and dairy items.

Designed for Superior Hygiene

Sanitation is at the core of the FP1’s design. The unit features a fully welded, stainless steel insulated body and a state-of-the-art hygienic lifting system that allows complete interior access for rapid cleaning and inspection. The freezer base is engineered with sloped surfaces and improved drainage, eliminating "dead zones" where bacteria could thrive and ensuring a faster, more efficient sanitation cycle.

Optimized Performance and Control

Its high-performance stainless steel fan blades and redesigned spray manifold can increase production capacity by up to 20% compared to previous models. Operators benefit from a user-friendly PLC hybrid control panel, which allows for quick manual changes and the ability to store specific operating parameters for consistent results.

Key Specifications:

●      Versatile Sizing: Available in lengths of 18', 27', and 36' with belt widths ranging from 24" to 48".

●      Increased Clearance: A 7.9-inch product clearance accommodates larger food items easily.

●      Modular Integration: Designed for easy installation into any existing continuous process line.

For small to medium processors looking to reduce freezing costs while ensuring exceptional product quality, the CRYO TUNNEL-FP1 is the definitive solution for operational excellence.
