• Belt take-up provides longer belt life
 The Frigoscandia GYRoCOMPACT® 40 Spiral Freezer
The most compact, hygienic and efficient spiral freezer ever made

Increased capacity on a small footprint

• Capable of freezing up to 1,000 kg of

products per hour
• 35% to 40% higher capacity than any
similar capacity model
• Can be shipped as one single piece of
equipment
• Ideal for transition from cryogenic to
mechanical freezing

Fans located on dry side of evaporator.

• Maximum heat transfer and frost

pick-up
• Increased production uptime
• Greater freezing capacity

Fully seal-welded, stainless steel floor

design, with elevated floor to wall joint
creating a bath-tub style design.

• No bacteria traps
• Protecting the floor insulation from being
flooded

FRIGoDRIVE® system

• Replaces outdated wagon drive system

• Removes the need for centre drum
• No support or rails to cause jamming
• 30% faster belt speeds

Unrivalled energy efficiency

• Freezer power consumption from 5 kW

• Highest possible rate of heat transfer
• No risk of products being moved by
ms – the pioneer since 1962 – horizontal airflow

world-leading freezing technology... • Short freezing times, low dehydration,

maximized product quality
