Why Pre-cool After Harvest?

Field heat left unchecked halves shelf life. Cold rooms take 8~12 hours and cool unevenly. Vacuum cooling pulls the chamber to ≤600Pa, where surface water vaporizes at near 0°C — absorbing heat directly from the produce. Even cooling from surface to core in 20-40 minutes.


How the CVF Series Works

Step Component What Happens
1 Vacuum pump Draws chamber to ≤600Pa
2 (chamber) Surface moisture vaporizes, absorbs heat
3 Cold trap Captures vapor before it reaches the pump
4 Refrigeration Maintains cold trap temperature

Controlled by LS (LG Korea) PLC + Weintek touchscreen. Set target temp, press start.

🔬 Working Principle

The CVF-500A-1P uses flash evaporative cooling under vacuum. When chamber pressure drops to ≤600 Pa, water on the produce surface boils at near 0°C, absorbing latent heat (≈2260 kJ/kg) directly from the product. The Copeland ZB scroll compressor maintains the water catcher for moisture capture. Temperature sensors trigger automatic stop at the target setpoint. The entire cycle completes in 20–30 minutes, compared to 2–4 hours for conventional cold rooms.

🇩🇪 Global component sourcingBITZER compressor (Germany) + Leybold vacuum pump (Germany) + LS control (Korea)
🔧 4-tier configurableOne chamber, four budget points
📉 Evaporative condenser efficiency15~20% higher efficiency than air-cooled

🔬 Working Principle

The vacuum pump system reduces chamber pressure below 600Pa. Water on the produce surface boils at low temperature, absorbing latent heat and rapidly dropping temperature. The BITZER compressor maintains the cold trap (evaporator) at -10°C~-15°C, where vapor condenses and releases ~2500kJ/kg of latent heat — transferred through the refrigerant cycle to the outdoor evaporative condenser. Vacuum pumps handle only non-condensable gases, extending pump service life.

🔢 Engineering Verification

Sensible heat: Q_s = 3000 × 3.8 × (25-5) / (30×60) = 126.7 kW
Latent heat (3-4% surface moisture): Q_l ≈ 126.7 × 0.36 = 45.6 kW
Total load: Q_total = 126.7 + 45.6 = 172.3 kW
Installed: 172.8 kW → deviation <0.3%

Pump speed: Leybold SV300×3 = ~900 m³/h Pull-down to 600Pa: ~12-15 min
