Polychiller

Meyer's Polychiller offers the ultimate in rapid chilling of hot-filled pouches and other containers due to its unique agitation and product movement technology. The Polychiller uses air and water flushes to gently agitate the pouches in a cold water bath. This allows for the maximum in heat transfer during the chilling process. These systems can be supplied with surface drying units and laning/orienting systems to improve packaging line efficiency.

Key features of Polychillers include:

  • Heavy-duty, all stainless steel construction keeps maintenance costs at a minimum
  • The unique agitation and product movement technology allows for rapid cooling of pouches and other containers
  • Water chilling is achieved through an integrally mounted chiller unit located in the lower tank of the unit, minimizing the overall height of the system and insures effective chilling of the water
  • All water is cleaned and recycled within the system, keeping water usage to a minimum
  • With very few moving parts, the Polychiller requires very little maintenance, operation is simple
  • Equipment can be furnished as stand alone or as a fully integrated system
