In the poultry industry, falling film chillers are essential for efficient pre-cooling of carcasses to reduce bacterial growth and ensure food safety. These devices optimize heat transfer, ensuring rapid cooling while handling high volumes and maintaining hygienic conditions.
Falling film chillers are designed to rapidly cool poultry to precise temperatures, often down to 4°C. In this setup, a thin film of chilled water flows over vertical tubes, with refrigerant evaporating inside, providing high-efficiency indirect cooling. They can manage the cooling demands in poultry processing such as immersion chilling or air chilling systems. Their ability to quickly transfer heat, handle large throughputs, prevent cross-contamination, and support energy recovery make them vital to the industry.
Falling film chillers play a critical role in pre-cooling, water chilling, and temperature management in poultry production. Manufacturers construct these chillers with materials that meet food industry standards for purity and safety, including sanitary designs compliant with 3-A Sanitary Standards. Advanced engineering addresses scalability and maintenance, allowing seamless integration into poultry processing lines.
