Efficient industrial refrigeration system

Boost your freezer capacity and reduce energy costs with an advanced refrigeration system that integrates seamlessly into your production line, offering precise temperature control and minimal maintenance for high-speed operations.

The Frigoscandia LVS Refrigeration system from JBT offers a cutting-edge solution for efficient freezing and chilling in food processing applications. Leveraging a patented dry suction technology, it eliminates the need for refrigerant pumps, thereby enhancing compressor capacity and evaporator efficiency, which leads to increased freezer output. This system is utilized across various industries, including poultry, meat, seafood, and plant-based protein, perfectly suited for processing end products like tofu, marinated chicken, and microwaveable meal trays. Designed for seamless integration, it features fully automatic controls that synchronize with existing freezer control panels, requiring minimal setup time and operational oversight. The system supports energy-efficient operation by maintaining high refrigerant recirculation rates, achieving 20% greater efficiency compared to conventional pumped systems. Compact in design, it reduces installation complexity with smaller piping and minimal floor space requirements. It also uses environmentally safe refrigerants like NH3 or CO2, ensuring compliance with modern environmental standards. Maintenance is streamlined thanks to the absence of refrigerant pumps, allowing extended service intervals and simplifying routine upkeep.

Benefits

  • Enhances production capacity by increasing freezer output without additional energy consumption.
  • Offers flexible installation and relocation due to compact design and minimal floor space needs.
  • Reduces operational costs with maintenance-free design, eliminating refrigerant pumps.
  • Maintains product quality by minimizing dehydration through rapid, low-temperature pull-down to -50˚C/-60˚F.
  • Supports environmental compliance by utilizing safe, reduced-quantity refrigerants like NH3 or CO2.
