Product Capacity per Pan
Foods for chill or freeze processing should be portioned into shallow pans to a depth not to exceed 2" (51mm). The
individual pan capacity chart below is provided as a general guideline to help determine the number of processing loads
required for the total quantity of food to be processed.
Example: 132 lb per batch ÷ 12 lb per 12" x 20" x 2-1/2" pan = 11 pans
60 kg per batch ÷ 5,4 kg per 325mm x 530mm x 65mm pan = 11 pans
Quickchiller Pan Capacity
The following Quickchiller Capacity Chart indicates the number of pans that can be accommodated in the appropriate
size chiller for the chilling or freezing function. Additional pans can be accommodated only when using the Quickchiller
for holding at a refrigerated temperature or at a maintenance temperature for frozen food.
Do not overload the Quickchiller for the processing function.
