What Does the Vacuum Pump Do in a Vacuum Cooler or Vacuum Chiller?
In a vacuum cooler the pump only holds chamber pressure low and removes non-condensable gas. Vapour is condensed by the water catcher
Vacuum Cooling Cycle Time: How Long from 90°C to 10°C?
A food vacuum chiller runs 15–30 minutes per cycle from 90°C to below 10°C. CVF-200 does 200 kg from 80°C to 0–8°C in 20–30 min; CVF-600 is quoted at 25 min.
