What is Pre-Cooling Chamber?

Pre cooling chambers are designed to extract field heat from fresh fruits and vegetables.

All fruits and vegetables have to be pre-cooled to remove farm heat. Studies carried out on different fruits & vegetables show that 7/8 of the cooling should take place not later than 8 hrs from the time of plucking else all fruits and vegetables show an exponential decay in their shelf life.

In order to ensure that the fruit or vegetable does not shrink through water migration from fruit to air the water content in the air at any given point of time has to be greater than the water content in the fruit/vegetable to be pre-cooled. Also, there should no free moisture in the air to allow condensation otherwise chill injury may take place. Blueice India's Pre-cooler is designed to achieve a temp of 0 o C and an RH above 95% in an empty room without any loose water in the air to ensure zero shrinkage.
