Fluid Removal System

Fluid Removal System (FRS 2.0)

1/ Best-in-class water removal achieved from a combination of vibratory force and high velocity air - over 50% more water removal over competition

2/ Greater than 15% increase in production of IQF vegetables - efficiencies from improved water removal and less clumping

3/ Ultra-hygienic perforated homogeneous belting far superior to competitors’ metal mesh belting

4/ Lift-out side guides and belt lifters enable access to interior frame for proper cleaning and inspection

5/ Cantilevered blower design allows access to all internal areas for cleaning - exclusive design and industry first

6/ ACS Assisted Cleaning System (CIP) fully integrated into plenum, piping, and difficult to access areas

UNIQUE PATENTED SOLUTION TO FLUID REMOVAL

  • Combined full bed vibration with ultra-hygienic perforated belting conveyor

  • Suction in the presence of agitation enhances fluid removal

  • High capture velocity with large CFM blower matched to belt width and suction plenum incorporating precision slots


EVEN PRODUCT SPREAD AT FREEZER FEED

  • Uniform product bed depth

  • Better efficiencies in the freezing zone


PRECISE CONTROL OF VIBRATION, RETENTION, SUCTION

  • VFD control of belt drive – control bed depth

  • VFD and weight settings of vibratory drive motors – control vibratory force applied to maximize water removal and protect delicate product

  • Adjustable blower exhaust valve – control suction pressure at the plenum and capture velocity


INCREASED LINE THROUGHPUT

  • Reduced frost build-up on refrigeration coils

  • Production rates closer to target over entire production day

  • Extended time between defrosts


IMPROVED PRODUCT QUALITY

  • Reduced clumping

  • Reduced water crystals
