DTI–1382 Cooling System
Customer directive
Our customer wanted to place the products on a continuous cooling conveyor that would move the product from the heated oven chamber for process. The cooled air in the chamber is forced around the product with a vertical down airflow. The airflow design provides efficiency in regards to process time and uniformity.
Description
The DTI-1382 design velocity accounts for the pressure drop through the product to provide an efficient process. The systems conveyor provide a stable surface to support the product and is open to allow process air to flow freely around the product. The design of the conveyor allows the customer to load and unload product easily and the belt travel approximately 8 feet/minute to move out of the cooling chamber. The cooling system design does not required any special foundations or floor pits for installation. The control system includes PLC control of the product soak temperature profile. All functions are controlled from the operator HMI (touch screen) and multiple recipes can be stored for future use for various product requirements. The entire system is fully assembled and factory tested for operational verification prior to shipment.
