The rapid chilling process preserves food quality, texture and nutritional value for up to 5 days.  As
many as 5 chillings can be handled per 8 hour shift.  The Automatic Chill/Hold mode can be used for
overnight chilling.

The HQCF45 QuickChill / Freezer is designed to chill exactly like the HQC45 and it can also freeze
product down to  – 20

°

F.  Freezing time varies according to the initial and final product temperatures

as well as product type and quantity.  Coated wire shelves can accommodate five full-size
12" x 20" x 2

Chill and Freeze times are dependent upon product type, thickness, density, thermal conductivity, and
type of covering.  For best results, approximately 9 pounds of product per 12" x 20" x 2

" pan or

18" x 26" sheet pan is recommended.  If more product per pan is being chilled, the time required to
chill will be increased.

to 28

°

F in the latter part of the chill cycle.

•

The printer is part of the controller and provides the ability to:

•

Print data from the last chill cycle or from all chill cycles since 12:00 midnight.

•

Print the time and date information for each cycle.

•

Report chill temperatures vs. time at ten minute intervals.
