5. USE AND FUNCTIONING
5.1.
Description of the Functioning Cycles
The following are brief descriptions and types of
operating cycles.
Temperature Blast Chilling
This cycle allows
a reduction in temperature in the product core
from
+90°C
to
+3°C
as quickly as possible and
within a MAX time of
90 minutes
. The cycle ends
when the value +3°C, read by the needle probe, is
reached.
Time Blast Chilling
This cycle allows
a reduction in temperature in the product core
from +90°C to +3°C during the set time: we
remind you that it is advisable to run some
previous testing temperature cycles in order to
determine the necessary time for a correct
product blast chilling process. Do not forget that
acquired times have to be considered valid for
exclusive use of the same type of product and in
the same quantities per cycle.
Temperature Shock Freezing
This cycle allows
a reduction in temperature in the product core
from
+90°C
to
-18°C
in the quickest time possible
and within a MAX time equal to
270 minutes
. The
cycle ends when the value -18°C, read by the
needle probe, is reached.
Time Shock Freezing
This cycle allows
a reduction in temperature in the product core
from +90°C to -18°C during the set time: we
remind you that it is advisable to run some
previous testing temperature cycles in order to
determine the necessary time for a correct
product blast chilling process. Do not forget that
acquired times have to be considered valid for
exclusive use of the same type of product and in
the same quantities per cycle.
Preservation
At the end of each cycle as described above,
either temperature or time cycle, the preservation
cycle will be started automatically, with no time
limit. The freezer temperature will refer to last
cycle, just concluded:
+ 3°C
for blast chilling
-25°C
for shock-freezing
Warning: use of this cycle is recommended only
for short periods prior to storage of the product in
a storage unit or in case of emergency, so as to
avoid such a limited use of a machine with such
high potential.
Defrosting
The frost forming on the evaporator following the
deposit of humidity from the product can
jeopardise the correct functioning of the
appliance. A defrosting cycle must be carried out
to restore full functionality.
Defrosting is performed by forced ventilation using
the evaporator fan. The cycle can be performed
with the door open or closed and can also be
interrupted at any time.
