ISA Launches Zero Range

ISA has launched the Zero range of high performance blast chillers/freezers suitable for ice cream parlours, restaurants, pastry shops, fast-food outlets and commercial catering operations. The variety of sizes and accessories mean there is a product suitable for every application. Horizontal or vertical units are available finished in robust, easy-to-clean stainless steel.
Advanced electronics are at the heart of the Zero range, allowing the operator to control refrigeration parameters simply and suitably for every need. The Zero can be operated in one of two ways. Either pre-set parameters can be chosen to suit the type of food and the temperatures that need to be achieved when chilling/freezing - nine basic programmes are supplied as standard, suitable for a variety of applications including gastronomy, pastry and ice cream. Alternatively, the operator can design individual programmes to suit their specific requirements. The programmes are input via a simple control panel with LCD display.

A number of features and accessories are incorporated to make the Zero range easy to use. The temperature probe has a heating facility which allows it to be easily removed from the product at the end of the freezing cycle. An audible and visual alarm feature operates if there is a malfunction or if the selected programme cannot be completed. There is an automatic hot-gas defrost system that removes ice very quickly to ensure continuous operation. Manual defrost is also an option. A further option is a print-out facility which records the cooling cycle automatically. Within the nine basic programmes is included a sterilisation sequence that works in conjunction with the optional germicidal lamp.

Specific models are suitable for different applications, although the comprehensive range of accessories makes other configurations possible. For example, the Zero T5, T8 and T8VT can be fitted with a kit specifically for ice cream containers - the basic product accepts standard gastronorm trays. The Zero T12 and T16 models are designed for high-capacity throughput. The Zero T8 Horizontal can be built-in under a worktop where space is at a premium. All models are fitted with stainless steel telescopic feet - wheel kits are available optionally. The reversible, 180 degree opening door will remain open over 90 degrees for easier loading and unloading.
In line with its Ecology Project, all ISA’s products use 100% HCFC-free polyurethane insulation and eco-friendly refrigerant gases.
