The main functions and precautions of food grade cooling tunnel
Food-grade cooling tunnel are commonly used in the food processing industry to rapidly cool food to ensure that food meets safety and hygiene standards during processing and to extend its shelf life. The following are the main functions and precautions of food grade cooling tunnels:
Main functions:
Rapid cooling: Food-grade cooling tunnels can quickly cool food from a high temperature state to a safe temperature range, avoiding food deterioration at high temperatures.
Maintain food quality: Through rapid cooling, you can slow down the growth rate of microorganisms inside the food, helping to maintain the freshness and taste of the food.
Extend shelf life: Proper cooling can extend the shelf life of food and reduce the possibility of food spoilage and damage.
Precautions for use:
Cleanliness and hygiene: The food-grade cooling tunnel should be kept in a good state of cleanliness and hygiene, and the equipment should be cleaned and disinfected regularly to avoid cross-contamination.
Operation specifications: The operator should correctly operate the cooling tunnel according to the requirements of the equipment operation manual to avoid accidents caused by misoperation.
Maintenance: Regular inspection and maintenance of the cooling tunnel to ensure the normal operation and efficiency of the equipment.
Temperature control: According to the type and requirements of food, reasonable control of the temperature and speed of the cooling tunnel to ensure that the food is cooled quickly at the appropriate temperature.
Safety first: Pay attention to safety during use to avoid electric shock, injury and other accidents.
These are the key things to pay attention to when using food grade cooling tunnels, and proper operation and maintenance of the equipment will help improve the efficiency and quality of food processing.
