Model HQC135 & HQC200 QuickChillers

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL

The HQC135 QuickChiller is designed for rapid chilling of 135 pounds of food (9 pounds of food per pan in 15 pans) from 150°F to 37°F in approximately 90 minutes. 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 chiller can accommodate a roll-in rack or cart which will hold 15 full-size 12" x 20" x 21/2" pans (2 pans per level). Maximum cart dimensions are 271/2" wide x 303/8" deep x 743/4" high.

The Model HQC200 QuickChiller is designed for rapid chilling of 200 pounds of food (9 pounds per pan in 22 pans) from 150°F to 37°F in approximately 90 minutes.

Chill time is dependent upon product type, thickness, density, thermal conductivity and type of covering. For best results, approximately 9 pounds of product per pan is recommended. If more product is being chilled, the time required to chill will be increased. A thin covering (plastic wrap or aluminum foil) on the top of the pan is recommended.

The stainless steel interior has radiused corners for ease of cleaning (per NSF Standard Number 7); exterior sidewalls are also stainless steel. Location of RS232 port is standard in front behind the printer door and optional at the top.

The SmartChill™ controller provides the ability to:

Select the chill mode: By Product, By Time or By Temperature.

Display the current air and product temperatures and time.

Monitor product temperature with four smart probes to reduce chances of freezing.

Select Soft Chill to reduce the chances of freezing in the final phase of chilling.

Provide service diagnostics to quickly check machine functions and control circuitry.

Send Chill Cycle data via RS232 port to SmartChill™ computer software, state-of-the-art HACCP data management.

The standard printer provides the ability to:

Print data from the last or any chill cycle with time, date and temperature information.

Charts chill temperatures vs. time at intervals that can be set by the supervisor.

An optional second printer can print a condensed ‘Label’ type of report with Product and User info.

Printers provide HACCP reporting of chill data.

Chillers can be shipped either with panels fully assembled or disassembled for on-site assembly.

The condensing unit on model HQC135 can be remote or self-contained. On model HQC200, the condensing unit is always remote.

INSTALLATION

UNCRATING

Immediately after unpacking, check for possible shipping damage. If the chiller is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.

Before installing, check the electrical service to make sure it agrees with the electrical specifications on the rating plate located on the side panel inside the cabinet on the hinge side.
