Blood plasma freezers are systems for controlled freezing and defrosting of pharmaceutical and biotechnological products.
The systems consist mainly of a refrigeration circuit, a heat transfer medium circuit and the product chamber, in which the products are frozen or defrosted in bag systems on the control plates of the systems.
For controlled freezing and defrosting, the heat transfer medium is pumped through the positioning plates. The heat transfer surface is maximized by compressing the bags between the plates. This enables the fastest and most homogeneous freezing and defrosting possible. To ensure that heat is continuously extracted from the product, the integrated refrigeration system cools the heated heat transfer medium back down to the required temperature.
The well-proven cold air chillers from Mirai Intex are used for temperatures below -40 °C. It is outstanding in this area due to its high efficiency and reliability. The system is environmentally friendly thanks to the refrigerant air (R729) and there are no restrictions or regulations imposed by the EU F-Gas Regulation and REACH.
Flexible adjustment of the control plate temperature until -90 °C.
Every product bag has the same freezing conditions at all times and the same shape at the end. This means that barcodes can be read by machine on the flat surface of a plasma bag. Reliable documentation and high freezing rates are a matter of course.
Reliable, durable, efficient and safe for people and the environment!
The entire refrigeration system is located underneath the product room, which separates the technical area from the production area.
HOF's blood plasma freezers are always state of the art and fulfill the highest safety standards. In addition to manufacturing, HOF stands for comprehensive project support. The entire project - from system planning and production at HOF through to commissioning - is comprehensively supported on site by a project team. In addition, HOF is also available during transportation and installation with training courses and annual service and maintenance units.
The blood plasma freezers are equipped with a visualization system for process control, the "HOF Freeze Viewer Professional". This system complies with FDA requirements in accordance with 21 CFR, Part 11. All process-relevant data such as batch reports and temperature curves can be printed out in the form of a process report or forwarded to a higher-level system using this software specially developed by HOF. The respective recipes for the individual products can be created individually by the customer.
Air as a refrigerant is free of charge, free of regulations and safe. The systems are built specifically for low temperatures.
