Bare Tube Evaporator Coil in the Food Processing Industry
The primary role of bare tube evaporator coils in food processing is to absorb heat from the target medium (air, materials, or water) through the evaporation of refrigerants (e.g., R404A, R507A) inside the tubes. This drives rapid cooling or freezing of food materials, ensuring quality preservation, extending shelf life, and complying with food safety standards.
Key functional scenarios include:
Rapid freezing of semi-finished/finished products: Such as freezing meat cuts, seafood (shrimp, fish fillets), prepared meals, or fruits/vegetables to lock in moisture and nutrients, and inhibit microbial growth.
Refrigerated storage environment control: Maintaining low temperatures (0–4°C) in cold storage rooms for raw materials (e.g., dairy, fresh produce) or finished products by cooling the air in the space.
Process cooling for food liquids: Cooling liquid materials like fruit juices, syrups, or dairy products during processing to prevent spoilage or maintain viscosity.
Ice making for cooling applications: Supporting on-site ice machines (e.g., flake ice, tube ice) that provide ice for seafood preservation, meat cooling, or temperature control in mixing processes.
