Rapid defrosters for fish and seafood “COLDWAVE+”
Thanks to the rapid and gentle Radio Frequency tempering process, the physical, biological and nutritional integrity of fish and seafood are preserved at best, thus ensuring the product freshness and healthiness.
Different species of fish and seafood, whole, H&G, fillets, loins, steak/chunks, shell-on or peeled can be RF defrosted:
quid, calamari, octopus, scallops, mussels, sardines, salmon, tuna, swordfish, shrimps, prawns, crawfish, lobsters, cod, pollock, hake, pangasius, halibut, catfish, toothfish, surimi, etc.
The treatment can be performed on IQF products or blocks.
The multi-position upper electrode system and the wide conveyor belt allow to process a wide range of sizes and weights: from few kg to 30 kg and from few cm to 23 cm high (standard configuration). Upon request, the machine can be customized to process bigger and heavier blocks.
Thanks to the characteristics of the RF field and the different types of conveyor belt available, the product can be processed packaged (in PE film/liner or bag, open or vacuumed, paper film, PE + carton, PP crates or trays, etc.) or “naked”.
