Seafood processing plants operate in some of the most demanding refrigeration environments. High humidity, constant wash-downs, and continuous salt exposure create aggressive corrosion conditions that quickly damage standard evaporators. To overcome these challenges, stainless steel ammonia blast evaporators have become the preferred solution for ensuring durable, hygienic, and reliable cooling performance.
Why Stainless Steel for Seafood Facilities?
In seafood processing rooms, the combination of saltwater aerosols, organic residues, and regular cleaning with harsh sanitizers leads to rapid corrosion of conventional aluminum-fin evaporators. Stainless steel construction provides:
1. Exceptional Corrosion Resistance
Stainless steel (SS304 or SS316L) resists pitting and oxidation caused by salt-laden air, ensuring a significantly longer equipment lifespan.
2. Superior Hygiene and Cleanability
Smooth stainless steel surfaces are easy to sanitize and comply with food safety requirements in seafood and fish processing facilities.
3. Structural Strength and Durability
Stainless steel maintains its mechanical performance even after repeated washdowns, maintaining coil integrity and airflow efficiency.
4. Reduced Maintenance Costs
Longer coil life and resistance to chemical cleaning agents translate directly into lower downtime and operational savings.
Applications in Seafood Processing
Stainless steel ammonia blast evaporators are ideal for:
Fish and shrimp blast freezers
Octopus and squid IQF tunnels
Shellfish freezing lines
Seafood cold storage rooms
Packing and processing rooms with daily washdown
Brine rooms and thawing chambers
These units are specifically designed to endure continuous salt exposure, chemical sterilization, and heavy moisture, making them essential for modern seafood plants.
Built for Reliability in Harsh Marine Conditions
Whether installed in onshore seafood factories or coastal processing facilities, stainless steel ammonia evaporators deliver stable performance, long service life, and superior hygiene. They ensure rapid chilling and freezing, helping seafood producers maintain product quality, freshness, and food safety standards.
