BLAST CHILLER / SHOCK FREEZER
Item Number: DXDBC45
Application
This compact unit has a self-contained,
air-cooled refrigeration system and is
complete with all required controls and
accessories. The microprocessor control
system provides a choice of operating
cycles: soft chilling, hard chilling, shock
freezing, holding, and sterilizing. A heated
core temperature probe is provided for
accurate control of temperature within
the product. The capacity is four (4)
12” x 20” x 2-1/2” deep food pans.
Construction
The chilling/freezing cabinet is constructed
of polished type 304 stainless steel, with
2” of CFC-free, high density polyurethane
insulation. The interior panels have a
mirror finish and interior bottom corners
are fully rounded. The door is equipped
with a removable magnetic gasket. The
door is hinged on operator’s left. All
motors are sealed ball bearing washdown type. A 6’ long three wire cord set
with a NEMA 6-15P plug is provided.
Refrigeration System
The self-contained refrigeration system
includes a condensing unit using R-404A
refrigerant. The evaporator temperature
range is +25°F to -40°F. The compressor
is a hermetic type with inherent overload
protection.
Performance
Blast chilling (soft or hard) lowers the
food core temperature from 160°F to
38°F in less than 2 hours. Shock freezing
lowers the food core temperature from
160°F to 0°F within 4 hours. Chilling
and freezing times will vary somewhat,
depending on the food quantity, initial
temperature, density, moisture content,
specific heat, and type of container. The
airflow has a high velocity, indirect pattern designed to cool all levels at identical rates. Time/temperature chilling and
freezing rates meet or exceed all FDA
and state regulations.
Microprocessor Control System
The solid state electronic control panel
is user friendly, easy to reach and can be
set for automatic or manual operation.
The heated core probe continuously
measures the product temperature
during the chilling or freezing cycles. At
the end of freezing cycle the probe can
be heated for ease of removal from the
frozen product. Easy to read VFD display
and buzzer alarm are standard features.
All settings are programmable by the

operator. The standard operating cycles
include the following:
• Soft Chilling: The air temperature is
held in the range of 28°F to 35°F, ideal
for delicate food items. The chilling
cycle is completed when the food core
temperature reaches 38°F to 40°F.
• Hard Chilling: The air temperature is
lowered to 0°F. When the food core
temperature reaches 60°F, the air
temperature rises to a range of 28°F
to 35°F. The chilling cycle is completed
when the food core temperature
reaches 38°F to 40°F.
• Shock Freezing: This cycle is designed
to avoid damage to the food structure,
keeping the food free of large ice
crystals. The air temperature is lowered
to and held at -25°F. The freezing cycle
is completed when the food core
temperature reaches 0°F.
• Holding: At the end of any cycle (soft
chilling, hard chilling or shock freezing),
the unit will automatically switch to a
holding mode which will keep the food
at 38°F (chilled) or at 0°F (frozen) until
START/STOP button is pressed to end
the cycle. If the door is opened before
pressing START/STOP button, the
holding mode will resume when the
door is closed and continue until
START/STOP button is pressed.
Options
6” high s/s legs are standard extra heavy
duty 4” diameter casters 2-w/brakes are
optional.
Warranty
One year parts and labor.
