The CVF-300W-L operates on the principle of evaporative cooling under vacuum: as air is evacuated from the sealed chamber, the atmospheric pressure drops, lowering the boiling point of water. Moisture on the food surface evaporates rapidly, absorbing latent heat of vaporization and cooling the food from within — without any cold air blowing or direct contact with refrigerant.
| Stage | Temperature Range | Vacuum Level | System | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| High-temp | 90°C → 50°C | Atmospheric→20kPa | Water-ring pump (coarse) | 3–5 min |
| Mid-temp | 50°C → 15°C | 20kPa→1kPa | Rotary vane pump + condenser | 8–12 min |
| Low-temp | 15°C → 8°C | 1kPa→600Pa | Rotary vane pump (fine) | 3–5 min |
| Total | 90°C→8°C | — | Dual-stage vacuum system | 20–30 min |
Safety highlight: The temperature danger zone (60°C→5°C) is crossed in under 12 minutes — well within the international food safety standard of 120 minutes, drastically reducing pathogen growth risk.

Q1: What types of food can the CVF-300 handle?
A: Best suited for high-moisture cooked foods (braised meats, roast poultry, stews), bakery products (bread, cake, pastry), prepared meal packs, and meat products (ham, sausage). Foods with >40% moisture content and surface evaporable water work optimally. High-oil/high-sugar products may need customized process parameters.
Q2: Is 300kg/batch enough for my production?
A: 300kg/batch × 2.5 batches/h × 8h ≈ 6,000 kg/day, sufficient for mid-to-large cooked food factories, chain restaurant commissaries, or central kitchens. Upgrade to CVF-400 or dual-unit parallel operation is available for higher capacity.
Q3: Does vacuum cooling affect food texture?
A: Multi-stage vacuum control automatically adjusts vacuum pressure based on food temperature, limiting weight loss to 1–3% (vs. 8–15% in air-blast cooling). The extremely fast cooling (20–30 min) minimizes moisture gradient inside the food, preserving texture and mouthfeel.
Q4: What facility requirements does the CVF-300 need?
A: Requires 380V/50Hz/3Ph industrial power, circulating cooling water (water-cooled) or well-ventilated space (air-cooled), and ~5m² footprint. No cold room or special HVAC needed. Pre-installation site assessment available.
Q5: Do you offer equipment rental?
A: Yes. Flexible rental terms (monthly/quarterly/annual) suitable for seasonal production spikes, trial runs, or short-term contracts. Rental fees are deductible from future purchase.
