  • MODULAR HEAT TRANSFER SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20230366578
    Abstract: A system and method controls a heat transfer system for palletized product. A controller and an array of sensors cooperate to control chillers and fans to efficiently change the temperature of product within the cases, while collecting and providing data regarding the efficacy and overall spatial profile of the freezing or other temperature-control operation. These data can be used to provide user feedback, optimize the temperature-control process, and ensure a desired performance of the system.
    Type: Application

  • Modular heat transfer system
    Patent number: 11073322
    Abstract: A modular air handler is adapted for installation in a racking assembly behind palletized product. The air handler operates to move air through the adjacent layers of palletized product upon placement of the palletized product in the adjacent space. The air handler can be deactivated in order to prevent unnecessary air flow when no palletized product is present in the adjacent space. A number of the modular air handlers may be provided for a racking assembly, such that individual pallet bays may be activated or deactivated as palletized product is deposited or withdrawn from the various pallet bays of the rack.
