Risks associated with equipment use

• RISKS DUE TO MOVEMENTS ON WHEELS: if the equipment is installed on wheels, take care during movements not to suddenly push the equipment, thus preventing it from overturning and being damaged. Also look out for any roughness on the sliding surface. Equipment with wheels cannot be levelled, therefore make sure thesupport surface is perfectly horizontal and flat. Always lock the wheels with the specific stops.
• RISKS DUE TO MOBILE ELEMENTS: the only mobile element is the fan, which however does not constitute a risk since it is protected by a protection grate secured with screws.
• RISKS DUE TO LOW/HIGH TEMPERATURES: stickers marked “TEMPERATURE HAZARD” have been affixed near areas with low/high temperature risks.
• RISKS DUE TO ELECTRICITY: risks of electrical nature have been resolved by designing electrical systems as per regulation CEI EN 60335-1. Specific stickers marked “high voltage” identify areas with electrical hazards.

What does a blast chiller do?
A blast chiller is a device that quickly lowers the temperature of the introduced food, whether fresh or cooked.

Fresh or just cooked food has the best sensory qualities and flavour; however, if not eaten immediately, it loses its initial qualitative properties and is subject to the proliferation of micro-organisms, which are potentially harmfuly to humans.

Positive Chilling is used when food is not eaten within two hours of its preparation, reducing the product temperature to +3°C at the core within 90 minutes. Subsequently, the product must be stored in a refrigerator at a temperature between 0/+3°C where it can be kept for up to 5 days.

Negative Chilling is used to keep all the sensory properties of the food intact. The chiller reduces the product temperature until reaching -18° C at its core. Subsequently, the product must bestored in a freezer at a constant temperature of -20 degrees and can even be eaten after 3/18 months, according to the product, provided the cold chain regulations are met.

Storage is the next step in the blast chilling cycle, in which the food product is maintained at a certain temperature in order to preserve its cooling or freezing.

It is divided into:
Positive storage, in the case of cooling;
Negative storage, in the case of freezing.

Normal refrigerators and freezers, unlike a blast chiller, are unable to rapidly lower the initial temperature of the product, which is therefore damaged in terms of its sensory properties and flavour.

Correctly loading the equipment
Food should be placed in a single layer in containers:

• that are uncovered;
• that are food-safe;
• that are resistant to the temperatures reached by chilling;
• that have low edges (maximum 4.5 cm). Containers should be evenly placed inside the cell. Correct container placement will allow free air circulation in the
  • cell: avoid obstructing the air vents and overloading the equipment beyond the admissible limits.

Achieving better results and working in safe conditions

• Fig. 11 Keep the motor compartment air vents free of objects and remove dust;
• periodically clean and replace the filter behind the motor compartment air vents:
• arrange food to be chilled or cooked as explained in the previous chapter;
• accurately close the doors during each work cycle;
• always keep the defrost water drain hole free;
• avoid opening doors during positive/negative chilling;
• perform routine maintenance as indicated in the specific section;

How to use the needle probe
The needle probe, during chilling, reads the temperature at the food “core”: when it reaches the value set by the user or default value, it means the food is chilled (Chilling function). The needle probe is fully inserted in the food to be chilled: make sure its tip reaches the food “core”, meaning the most internal point, without exiting. Be careful not to insert it in very fatty points and near bones. In case of very thin food products, insert the probe parallel to the support surface. Always keep the probe clean and sanitised.

HANDLE THE PROBE WITH CARE INSOFAR AS IT IS VERY SHARP.

USE

Switch on
When the display switches on it performs a lamp-test (flashing of all segments and dots for 5 seconds). When switched on for the first time, the display is in stand-by mode (three horizontal dashes “—” are shown on the display, one for each digit). The next time it is switched on, or when the power supply is restored, the blast chiller status varies depending on its status before the power supply failure. If there is no program running, activate standby mode by pressing and holding SEL for 4 seconds.

Important information
The display shows programs for managing the following blast chiller functions:
positive blast chilling or cooling (automatic or manual), negative blast chilling or freezing (automatic or manual) For manual programs, the reference value is the time. Both the automatic program and the manual program include a blast chilling cycle, automatically followed by a storage phase, which is positive or negative depending on the cycle chosen. At the end of the blast chilling cycle, when the storage phase starts automatically, a buzzer sounds intermittently (this can be modified by the user under parameter P 0). To silence the buzzer in advance, press the DOWN key.

During the execution of a program:

• the LED L2 is off if a positive blast chilling cycle was selected, or is on if a negative blast chilling cycle was selected;
• the L3 LED is on during the blast chilling cycle and flashing during the storage phase;
• pressing the UP key determines the display of the temperature measured by the cell probe for a duration of 5 seconds;
• pressing and holding the SET key determines, until the key is released, the display of the time elapsed since the start of the blast chilling cycle if the blast chilling cycle is still in progress, the duration of the previous blast chilling cycle if the storage phase is in progress.

At the end of a program, before starting the next program, the display shows the data relative to the last program run.

Automatic program

To select and start an automatic program (Fig. 8 on page 18), proceed as described below:

• Press the SEL key until the display shows the positive blast chilling cycle (default +3°C – P13 parameter) or negative blast chilling cycle (default -18 °C – P14 parameter).
• The repeated pressing of the SEL key causes the display to alternately flash between the value set for the positive blast chilling cycle and the value set for the negative blast chilling cycle.
• Wait 5 seconds or press the SET key to confirm (the temperaturedisplay becomes fixed).
• Press the SET key to start the program: during the execution of an automatic program the display shows the temperature measured by the needle probe.

The temperature parameters can be modified by the User.

At the end of the blast chilling cycle the display shows the temperature measured by the needle probe, flashing if the target set has not been reached (P13 -P14 parameters).

The duration of the blast chilling cycle is determined by one of the following conditions:

• reaching the selected temperature setpoint (P13 -P14 parameters);
• exceeding the set time, even if the temperature has not been reached (parameters P19-P20).

At the end of the blast chilling cycle, the storage phase starts (signalled by a beep). The temperature measured by the cell probe is shown on the display.

Storage phase characteristics:

• after a positive blast chilling cycle (parameter P19) room temperature setting equal to the value set for parameter P17;
• after a negative blast chilling cycle (parameter P20) room temperature setting equal to the value set for parameter P18.

Manual program (by time)

To select and start a manual program (Fig. 9 on page 20) proceed as described below:

• press the SEL key until the display shows the positive blast chilling cycle (display of P13 parameter, default +3 °C) or negative blast chilling cycle (display of P14 parameter, default -18 °C).

The repeated pressing of the SEL key causes the display to alternately flash between the value set for the positive blast chilling cycle and the value set for the negative blast chilling cycle.

• Wait 5 seconds or press the SET key to confirm (the temperature display becomes fixed).
• Press the UP or DOWN key to select the duration of the blast chilling cycle (the starting value displayed is the one set by default, parameter P19 or P20 respectively for positive blast chilling cycle or negative blast chilling cycle).

The cycle time modification is not permanent (it does not change the default values for parameters P19 and P20). When the cycle is next set, the default values set under parameters P19 and P20 will be shown again.

• Wait 5 seconds or press the SET key to confirm (the cycle time display becomes fixed).
• Press the SET key to start the program. During the blast chilling cycle the display shows the total cycle time (parameter P19 or P20 respectively for positive blast chilling cycle or negative blast chilling cycle).

The time is displayed in the form of a decimal number, where the integer part represents the hours and the decimal part represents the minutes (for example, “1.30” indicates the time 90 minutes, i.e. 1 hour and 30 minutes). At the end of the blast chilling cycle, the storage phase starts (signalled by a beep). The temperature measured by the cell probe is shown on the display.

Storage phase characteristics:

• after a positive blast chilling cycle (parameter P19) room temperature setting equal to the value set for parameter P17;
• after a negative blast chilling cycle (parameter P20) room temperature setting equal to the value set for parameter P18.8.
• Selecting and starting special functions

The appliance is provided with special functions to manage the following blast chilling functions:

• manual defrost,
• cell sterilization (optional, if provided by the blast chiller),
• needle probe heating (optional, if provided by the blast chiller).

The storage phase starts automatically at the end of the special function and the buzzer will sound intermittently for the set time (this can be modified by the user under parameter P 0). To silence the buzzer in advance, press the DOWN key.

Manual defrost
Defrosting is normally performed by the User with the blast chiller door open (cell heating). Door opening or closure has no effect on the defrost process. To start defrosting press and hold the DOWN key for 4 seconds.

• The defrost configuration and duration are determined by the parameters P 5, P 7, P11, which can be modified by the User. During the defrost, the display shows the “dEF” string.

Cell sterilization
Sterilization can be enabled if the value of parameter P23 is equal to 1. To activate a sterilization cycle there must be no program or other special function in progress and the blast chiller door must be closed. To start the sterilization cycle hold down the UP key for 4 seconds.

• The sterilization cycle start and duration are determined by the parameters P 8, P24, P25, which can be modified by the User. During the sterilization cycle the display shows the “StE” string.

In the case of a cell probe error “Er2”:

• before the sterilization cycle start, the sterilization cycle does not start;
• during the sterilization cycle, the sterilization cycle continues normally.

If at start-up or during the sterilization cycle the cell temperature is lower than the reference value (parameter P25), the display will show the “cLd” string.a.

Needle probe heating
Needle probe heating can be activated if the value of parameter P23 is equal to 2. Door opening or closure has no effect on needle probe heating. To activate needle probe heating there must be no program or other special function in progress. To start needle probe heating hold down the UP key for 4 seconds.

• The needle probe heating configuration is determined by the parameters P28 and P29, which can be modified by the User. During needle probe heating, the display shows the “Prb” string.

Stopping and restarting a program or a special function
During the execution of a program or a special function, press the SET key to stop it. If a program has been completed, press the SET key again to restart from the point in which it was interrupted.

• If the restarted program is of the manual type, the cycle starts from the beginning for the set cycle time.

If a special function was not completed, it is not possible to restart from the point where it was interrupted.
