6)By pressing button ‘3’, select the Timer for the desired duration or probed blast. Default to probe blast unless it is known how long a product will chill.
7)If a variety of products are used make sure one probe is strategically placed near the top shelf, 1 in the center and 1 at a lower shelf. If a variety of products are used make sure one probe is in the largest item to be chilled. Place the
8)When you are happy with your selected program press the " " to start the blast cycle.
9)If you are not happy with your selection press the "x" button to cancel your 1/2/3. If cancelled repeat the above steps.
10)The blast chilling will begin.
TIP: You may open the door during blast chilling. This will not interrupt the cycle. If you add
additional food product make sure to use an Unused Clean probe in the product.
On completion of the blast chill cycle, when the product has reached 37°F, a buzzer will sound, and “DEF” will be displayed in the “CABINET TEMP” window of the control panel. “DEF” indicates the unit is defrosting. The blast chiller converts to a standard refrigerator.
During the defrost operation the temperature in the chiller will not exceed +3°C/38°F and it is therefore safe to leave products in the chiller during the defrost cycle.
NOTE: Product can be set for blast chilling at the end of the labor shift. The products will store
safely in refrigeration hold mode until the next shift up to 24 hours.
BLAST CHILL CYCLE/MODES
All BLAST CHILLERS allow the operator to use any of the 4
PROBE CONTROLLED
The probe blast chill cycle functions with the internal probe(s) supplied. The probe monitors the core temperature of the food and will not permit the blast cycle to stop until the default temperature of 3°C/38°F is reached. The last product to reach 3°C 38°F will discontinue the blast chill cycle.
When controlling the cycle with the food probe, make certain that the probe or probes are located in the center of the product before the blast cycle is started. On BLAST CHILLERS equipped with three food probes the cycle will not finish until all three probes have reached the correct temperature.
CAUTION:
Easier to chill items may actually freeze prior to the end of the blast chill cycle of the harder to chill item.
