JBT LVS QuickDry system for industrial spiral freezers

JBT has launched the LVS QuickDry, a system for fast drying of industrial spiral freezers after cleaning, helping save hours of time attempting to take moisture out of freezers after defrosting.

It makes use of a patented system of condensation cycles to quickly and efficiently remove all droplets of water from spiral freezers. The system condensates the moisture to the evaporator before heating it again quickly using hot gas, so the moisture that has frozen to the evaporator drips down to the floor. This gets most of the moisture out of the freezer as quickly as possible.

Unlike most traditional drying systems, which rely on fans and can take an average of 2.5 h to achieve results, leading to substantial downtime, the product shortens effective drying time by up to 1 h.

The LVS Refrigeration System optimises the refrigeration system by reducing energy consumption, improving freezer performance in the process.
