CoolSteam® Compatible Rainfall Chilling System
RAINFALL CHILLING SYSTEM
​
Save energy and preserve high yields with Laitram Machinery's Rainfall Chilling System. Designed for use with the CoolSteam® series of Cookers, Blanchers, and Pasteurizers, your product exits your CoolSteam® machine and immediately enters the chilling process, stopping the CoolSteam® process.
The modular design of Laitram's Rainfall Chiller makes it customizable to your specific needs. Machine operation is based on thermodynamic principles:
​
-
Counter-Flow
-
Achieve the same cooling rate with warmer water as you do with ice.
-
-
Convective Cooling
-
Heat is removed faster by a moving fluid than by a stationary one. This effect is the same as “Wind Chill”.
-
Integrated Solution / Closed-Loop System (Optional)
This solution integrates the entire chilling loop. Laitram Machinery recommends using a Closed-Loop System when:
-
Water availability is limited.
-
You want to reduce your water usage by 90%.
-
Water discharge costs are high.
