Health and safety should be a top priority in any industry, and it is especially important in food processing facilities.  IQF freezers play a crucial role in food processing, as they quickly freeze food to extremely low temperatures, preserving its freshness and nutritional value. The CIP cleaning system is an essential equipment for ensuring the hygiene and food safety of IQF freezers.

As a leader in the freezer industry, Square is concerned about the health, safety and hygiene of our users’ food processing, and more concerned about the high demand of consumers for safe and hygienic frozen food. For over 40 years, we have been committed to providing the world’s most sanitary, energy-efficient and reliable food processing equipment. All of our Spiral Freezers and IQF Tunnel Freezers are available with an automatic CIP system that thoroughly cleans the inside of the freezer as well as components- saving you valuable time and money.

How does a CIP cleaning system work?

The CIP cleaning system includes the main station, control system, water supply system, piping and nozzles inside the freezer. The freezer will automatically complete the cleaning process, saving a significant amount of time and labor. 

The main station performs cleaning operations such as spraying detergent foam, rinsing with tap water, and spraying with sanitizing solution on the internal structure of the IQF. In addition, we provide manual cleaning water guns for supplemental cleaning of critical areas or areas with high levels of residue.

With an automatic CIP cleaning system, what you have to do is press the button on the HMI of the freezer, your freezer will clean it by itself automatically.
