Maintaining food freshness and safety is paramount for any successful hospitality operation. Ready Super Blast Chillers by Friulinox stand at the forefront of food preservation technology, offering sophisticated solutions that ensure optimal food quality while meeting stringent safety standards. These innovative chillers combine precise temperature control with user-friendly operation, making them an invaluable addition to professional kitchens of all sizes.

Advanced Temperature Control Systems

At the heart of Ready Super Blast Chillers lies their advanced temperature control capability. Each unit features a sophisticated 5-inch touch screen display, strategically positioned at eye level on the chiller door for optimal visibility and ease of use. This intuitive interface provides immediate access to all functions through clear, easy-to-read symbols and real-time temperature monitoring.

The system's precision is enhanced by a quick-release heated core probe with four measuring points, ensuring accurate temperature readings throughout the chilling process. This multi-point measurement system allows for precise monitoring of food temperature from core to surface, guaranteeing consistent results every time.

Comprehensive Cooling Capabilities

Ready Super Blast Chillers offer versatile temperature ranges to accommodate various food preservation needs. The units can perform both soft and hard blast chilling, with temperature ranges from +3°C for standard chilling to -40°C for deep freezing applications. This flexibility allows establishments to handle everything from delicate pastries to robust meat products with equal efficiency.

The chillers feature multiple operational modes including:

The technology excels in rapid temperature reduction, capable of bringing food temperature down from +90°C to +3°C in blast chilling mode, or to -18°C in freezing mode. This quick temperature reduction is crucial for maintaining food quality and preventing bacterial growth, particularly in the critical temperature danger zone.

Construction and Design Excellence

Ready Super Blast Chillers are built with durability and efficiency in mind. The external construction features a Scotch Brite satin finish stainless steel, providing both aesthetic appeal and robust protection. The units incorporate high-density CFC and HCFC-free PU insulation (42 kg/m³) with an impressive 80mm thickness, ensuring optimal temperature retention and energy efficiency.

The internal design features fully rounded corners and a die-moulded, leakproof base, making cleaning and maintenance straightforward while meeting strict hygiene standards. The magnetic seal system on all four sides of the door ensures a perfect seal, maintaining temperature stability and reducing energy consumption.

Advanced Cooling Technology

The cooling system employs indirect-flow electric fans constructed from composite materials, designed for optimal air circulation throughout the chamber. This technology, combined with copper-aluminium evaporating coils and high-efficiency condensing coils, ensures uniform cooling regardless of load size or food type. 

Model Specifications and Capacity Options

The Ready Super Blast Chillers range offers multiple models to suit different operational needs:

The RBS-051-SA-R290 model offers a compact solution with a capacity for 5 x 1/1 GN trays, perfect for smaller establishments. It features a blast chilling capacity of 30kg from +90°C to +3°C and can handle 20kg in freezing mode from +90°C to -18°C.

The larger RBS-121-SA-R290 model accommodates 12 x 1/1 GN trays, suitable for medium-sized operations. This unit can process up to 65kg in blast chilling mode and 45kg in freezing mode, making it ideal for busy commercial kitchens.

For establishments requiring maximum capacity, the RBS-122-SA model handles up to 24 x GN 1/1 trays, providing substantial throughput for large-scale operations.

Energy Efficiency and Environmental Consideration 

Environmental responsibility is a key aspect of the Ready Super Blast Chillers design. All models use R290 ecological refrigerant gas, which has a significantly lower environmental impact compared to traditional refrigerants. The units feature automatic defrost and water evaporation systems that operate without additional energy consumption, further reducing their environmental footprint.

The intelligent design includes features like the anti-condensation heating element and the body frame's thermal protection, which contribute to improved energy efficiency. The units also incorporate compressor-protecting automatic-reset thermal circuit breakers to ensure long-term reliability and reduced maintenance needs. 

Practical Applications and Benefits 

These blast chillers excel in various professional settings, from restaurants and hotels to catering services and industrial kitchens. Their versatility allows for:

• Rapid cooling of cooked foods for safe storage and extended shelf life
  
  
• Preservation of food quality, texture, and nutritional value
  
  
• Efficient batch processing for catering operations
  
  
• Temperature stabilization for delicate items like pastries and desserts

The economic benefits are equally impressive, with reduced food wastage, improved inventory management, and lower energy consumption contributing to significant cost savings over time.

Safety and Compliance 

Ready Super Blast Chillers are designed to meet and exceed food safety standards. The units comply with UNI EN 14159 hygiene regulations and feature comprehensive safety systems including temperature alarms and automatic shutdown protection. The Bluetooth-enabled monitoring system allows for HACCP data tracking and documentation, ensuring compliance with food safety regulations.

Customization and Accessories

Each model can be customized with various accessories to meet specific operational needs.

Available options include:

• Wheel kits with brakes for mobility
  
  
• Left-hinged door configurations
  
  
• Ice cream kits with specialized rail pairs and grids
  
  
• Connectivity kits for remote monitoring
