Used Nitrogen Tunnel Freezer For Sale
This used CES/DSI Dantech liquid nitrogen tunnel freezer represents an exceptional opportunity for food processors seeking to implement or expand cryogenic freezing capabilities. Manufactured in 2015, this industrial freezing system delivers the ultra-fast freezing performance that nitrogen cryogenic tunnels are renowned for, preserving product quality while maximizing throughput. The dual-conveyor configuration provides versatility for processing different product types or running parallel production lines within a single compact footprint.
Cryogenic IQF Technology
Liquid nitrogen tunnel freezers achieve extremely rapid temperature reduction through cryogenic freezing, creating Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) that minimizes ice crystal formation. This method is far faster than traditional mechanical freezing systems, preserving product texture, moisture content, and nutritional value. The result is superior quality that maintains the fresh appearance and taste characteristics your customers expect.
Dual-Conveyor Versatility
This CES model features an 18-foot freezing chamber equipped with six circulation fans and 48 precisely positioned nitrogen nozzles that ensure uniform temperature distribution throughout the tunnel. The dual stainless steel wire mesh conveyors measure 23′ long by 11″ usable width, with adjustable speed capabilities reaching 68 feet per minute. This configuration allows you to optimize residence time based on product type and desired freezing depth, whether you’re processing delicate berries, formed patties, seafood, pasta, or prepared meals.
Thoughtful Engineering for Food Processing
The dedicated infeed and discharge sections feature protective stainless steel safety hoods for operator safety. Product clearance of 5.75″ accommodates a range of product heights, while the hydraulic raise-and-lower feature simplifies sanitation procedures—a critical consideration in food processing environments. The Allen Bradley variable frequency drives controlling the six freezing chamber fans provide precise airflow management, while the Automation Direct touchscreen interface with Allen Bradley MicroLogix 1400 PLC offers intuitive operation and monitoring.
Premium Value in Used Equipment
Built with full stainless steel construction and mounted on adjustable legs, this nitrogen tunnel freezer combines the durability required for demanding production schedules with the hygienic standards essential in food processing. The independent conveyor controls allow fine-tuning of each belt’s operation, providing flexibility when running different products or adjusting for varying production requirements.
Investing in used cryogenic freezing equipment like this CES liquid nitrogen tunnel provides access to premium IQF technology at a fraction of new equipment costs. The rapid freezing capability, superior product quality preservation, and operational flexibility make this an intelligent choice for food processors looking to enhance their freezing operations.
