SMI's flatpack chiller offers safety standards
14 July 2009
A new product from Seymour Manufacturing International is said to be an easy way of providing chilled or frozen products on nearly any site in the world in an acceptable condition to maintain health and safety standards
The new product from Seymour Manufacturing International (SMI) is the TT33 and its wheeled T3 condenser/evaporator base. The TT33 simple-to-erect body on a frame is modular with light hook and loop fastened and zip-up sections. The assembly is then chilled or frozen via a 240 volt mobile evaporator which is moved on its robust T3 wheeled base.
To operate the T3, the two gas struts are simply lifted allowing the evaporator to self-raise to its operating height. The operator then pushes the unit into the entry slot provided in the TT33 body. Simply plugging into a 13amp supply, or a generator recommended by SMI, quickly produces the chilled or frozen condition. The time taken to achieve working temperature is dependent on the ambient temperature.
The TT33 and T3 base can be delivered cheaply to sites with limited access for indoor or outdoor use and is a suitable event, outside catering, disaster emergency support or promotion unit. For the Ministry of Defence it provides field kitchen support. It can be fitted with a T3 individual chiller or freezer unit, both of which have fast drawdowns, or a dual temperature chill/freeze unit. These split condenser/evaporator units operate on single phase 220/240 volt supplies.
Assembly, transportation and maintenance costs are minimal and two people can set up the TT33 in 15 to 20 minutes. Modular plastic flooring is available, and strongly recommended, as well as storm straps, pegs and ties for outside use. The TT33 and T3 complete may be hired.
Once assembled, the TT33 is 3msq and 2.9 metres high and provides a chilled or frozen volume of 17½ cubic metres. At an ambient of +32ºC the TT33 can maintain an internal storage chill temperature of +2°C to +3°C. The freezing capability will produce from -20ºC to -22ºC, again in an ambient of 32ºC.
Transportation is easy in that the TT33’s weight without the chiller or freezer unit is under 98kg. The chiller unit weighs in at 112kg and the freezer unit 115kg.
