THE BLAST CHILLING MODE
The Blast Chilling function allows you to quick chill food
down to 37°F (3°C), using a probe, in 90 minutes or less,
provided that:
• the total product weight matches the Blast Chiller
Specication
• the initial temperature is lower than or equal to
195°F (90°C)
• the product thickness is less than or equal to 2 inches
(5 cm)
• the food is evenly distributed in the chamber
• a pre-chill initial step is done to improve the chiller
performance in the heaviest conditions
Product temperature before and after a
Chilling Cycle
To comply with HACCP regulation, the target internal
temperature at the end of the cycle is 37°F (3°C) and
cannot be changed. The starting temperature of the food
products can vary depending on the cooking, or nishing,
process which the the food originally went through. For
example, chicken has a higher internal temperature while
pizza dough begins at a lower internal temperature.
Air Temperature
The air temperature is the temperature of the cabinet
where the food is being chilled. The range for a Blast
Chilling process is from -13°F (-25°C) to 48°F (9°C)
degrees and the holding range is from 14°F (-10°C) to
50°F (10°C).
Time or Temperature based Cycles
Use automatic (select food icons) or manual mode to
chill items. Depending on the mode and options selected,
choose to chill items by time, or by using the food probe to
set core temperature.
If time mode is selected, the Blast Chilling cycle terminates
by elapsed time. The product may or may not reach the
desired core temperature.
In food probe mode, the food probe controls the Blast
Chilling and may take more or less time. This time varies
based on the product weight, density, thickness, starting
temperature, etc., to reach the target temperature.
In either mode, after the time has elapsed or the food
probe temperature is reached, the machine switches to
hold mode automatically and maintains the product at the
storage temperature. Determine which mode you prefer,
based on your knowledge of food temperatures and the
time allotment. Select a core temperature-based cycle that
gets the food temperature to match food safety guidelines
at 37°F (3°C), before entering hold mode.
Automatic Defrost
Evaporator defrosts automatically between the chilling and
hold modes, and stops after the ice on the evaporator is
melted.

USER GUIDE
Control Operation
Blast Chilling Cycle Activation
When CHILLING mode is selected, the machine
automatically pre-chills the cabinet to 23°F (-5°C) (see
Figure 2). After reaching the pre-chill temperature, the
manual cycle, or recipe, can be started.
Press the green arrow (Play) to go directly to the recipe
selection screen and skip the pre-chill cycle.
Figure 3: Pre-chilling Screen
Select the appropriate food category or manual cycle.
Figure 4: Food Categories Available
Blast Chilling Automatic OEM Recipes
The pre-programmed recipes do not require cycle setting.
These recipes come with pre-determined settings that give
the best chilling process for the selected type of food (see
Figure 4).
Every recipe has four categories to suit variations of the
selected food.
Figure 5: Meat Chilling Recipe Options
The pre-programmed Meat Recipe categories are set up for
dierent proteins. Press the desired button (buttons on the
left side of the screen), which immediately starts the cycle
(see Figure 5).
The Food Probe Insertion screen appears.
Figure 6: Food Probe Insertion Screen
NOTE: When selecting an automatic recipe, you
must use the food probe.
A time counter runs until the needle probe is inserted
in the food. The electronic system recognizes the probe
insertion and initiates the cycle (see Figure 7).
Figure 7: Cycle Initiated
The Blast Chilling in Progress screen appears. A graph
shows the food core temperatures (from the food probe)
and the air temperature in real time. The right side of the
display shows the food selected, the type of cycle (Chilling
or Freezing icon), and the fan speed. The bottom of the
display shows real time values and cycle setpoint values,
which appear from left to right:
• Food °F – Current core temperature (it takes the
warmest value)
• Air °F – Current air temperature
• Time min. – Elapsed time
• End cycle °F – Food target temperature in an
automatic recipe. When core temperature is reached,
the cycle switches to the next step
13

USER GUIDE
Control Operation
• Air set °F – Desired air temperature of the current step
• End cycle min. – Time the cycle will end (e.g., three
dashes indicates a core temperature-based cycle, so
time is not available)
• Food scan – Status of the four core temperatures.
The system monitors the four cores of the food thickness
in the rst ve minutes of the cycle. Cores can be excluded
from the algorithm, which means the food measured with
the excluded will not be measured. The warmest core will
determine the end of the total cycle 37°F (3°C). Each core
contributes to regulate the internal cycle’s steps, varying
the air set temperature and fan speed. The following
indicators show core status:
• Blue – Warmest core
• Green – Core is positioned in the food thickness
• Grey – Excluded core
While scanning the food, the cycle runs through four
steps with dierent settings. The goal is to chill the food
in the shortest possible time, while saving the product
integrity. For example, a piece of cooked meat with an
internal temperature of 90°C (194°F) runs through the
initial step at very low temperature. The meat reaches the
highest air temperature at the end to prevent freezer burn.
Conversely, bread is chilled at a warmer air temperature
(above the freezing point) from the start, in order to not
aect the product surface.
NOTE: Automatic OEM recipes are set up in
the factory and guarantee the best
combination of steps for a chilling cycle.
Blast Chilling Manual Program
Press the Manual button on the Food Selection screen (see
Figure 4).
The Manual Program screen appears (see Figure 8). To
set the time, press the TIME button and set the time of
the cycle. Press the AIR TEMPERATURE button to set the

The system recognizes the probe immediately after it is
inserted, and starts the process.
Figure 15: Blast Chilling Cycle Screen
NOTE: Manual Programs and the Custom Recipes
do not provide the same advantages of the
Automatic OEM Recipes. However, these
programs allow a one single step chilling
process during all the cycle—where air
temperature and fan speed are always the
same value.
Cycle Graph and other functions
For an automatic or manual cycle, the graph shows the
air set temperature, actual air temperature, and set
temperature during a chilling or freezing cycle. The timer
counts up until it reaches the cycle set time or until the

The icon depends on the zip software installed on the PC.
Use any zip software (such as PKZIP, unzip, winrar, G7,
or similar) to extract the le to a folder (see Figure 41).
The folder will be named “haccp” as well. Cycle data is
stored at the following path: haccp\home\root\haccp and
is contained as .csv les (Comma Separated Values) (see
Figure 42). CSV les are associated with Excel:
Figure 42: File Types
Using a Proprietary Software to trace HACCP data
Load and trace the .csv les via a proprietary software
called Blast Chiller Tracer. Your customer service
representative has the following necessary les:
• ICON db (folder)
• lib ICON (folder)
• ICON BlastChillerTracer (Java executable le)
These les can be stored anywhere on your PC, but all les
must stay in the original folder.
NOTE: Do not open db and lib folders. Only run
BlastChillerTracer.
The Tracer is a Java executable le. Java virtual machine
(JVM) is normally preinstalled on a Windows-based OS, to
run games or other graphical interactive application. When
Java is on the PC, the le BlastChillerTracer links to the
program via the JAVA icon automatically. If this does not
happen, install JVM.
Contact your Administrator or install the JVM directly from
the following link: http://www.java.com/it/download/
JVM is safe and free of charge. Once it is installed, run the

WARNING
!
Before performing any service that involves
electrical disconnection and/or exposure
to electrical components, always follow the
Electrical LOCKOUT/TAGOUT Procedure.
Disconnect all circuits. Failure to comply can
cause property damage, injury, or death.
Perform thorough troubleshooing if the cause of a problem
is not obvious. To test the internal components, unplug or
remove the unit from the power supply.
PROBES
The Blast Chiller is equipped with several temperature
sensing probes. These probes are Negative Temperature
Coecient (NTC) thermoset sensors (see Figure 1 and
Figure 2). The chamber and evaporator probes have the
same conguration. The Touch Screen version has a special
multicore needle probe (5 cores, but only 4 being read from
the board).
NTC Probe Bulb Probe Measuring
Figure 1: Room/Evaporator Probe Type
Figure 2: NTC Needle Probe Types
The needle probe has a dierent sensing element (see
Figure 3). Both types of probes have the same resistance
to temperature correlation.
Figure 3: Pt1000 Needle Probe Types (Multicore)
Checking the Probes
A Probe alarm occurs when something is wrong with the
sensor reading. The problem may be either the sensor
wires or the sensor itself. Probe alarms Er0, Er1, and Er3
are commonly due to an interrupted (open) circuit in the
wires.
Another cause may be a short to the chassis or the two
leads shorting together.
To nd the cause of the alarm, disconnect the indicated
probe and check the resistance between the two wires (or
between any of the 5 wires of a multiprobe type).
If the Ohm reading is 0 Probe circuit is
shorted between
the two wires
Replace the probe
Ohm reading is innity,
∞
Probe is open Replace the probe
Reading matches the
resistance chart at a
known temperature
Probe is good Another problem
is the cause
Reading is not 0 or ∞
and does not match the
resistance chart
Probe is out of
range
Replace the probe
If none of the choices is the issue: Ohm out each wire to
the chassis. If the reading is 0 or less than ∞, the probe is
shorted to the chassis and must be replaced.
NOTE: Use a spare probe instead of the suspected
one. If the alarm continues, the problem is
not the probe.
Search for additional Probe Alarm issues in the probe to
board terminal connection. Check for rust, water, humidity,
loosen/lost connections on the probe terminal block (see
Figure 4).

DOOR SWITCH
The Blast Chiller is equipped with a magnetic sensor. When
the door is closed the sensor is activated by a magnet built
into the door. There are two magnets in each door, one at
the top and one at the bottom. This allows the door to be
reversed (only for non Touch Screen version).
Figure 7: Door Switch
Checking the door switch
If the magnetic sensor is faulty or if the wires are broken or
shorted, the display will show “d-r” continuously. To check
the switch, disconnect the wires from the Main Board at
terminals 48 and 49 (see Figure 7 and Figure 8). Ohm out
the switch between the two wires. Close the switch should
be closed when a magnet is present and open it when it
is not. If the switch tests OK, check for corroded, loose,
or missing connections on the terminals. If no problem is
found in the switch or wires, replace the Main Board.

PRESSURE SWITCH
A pressure-regulating switch is installed to prevent
compressor failures or improper operation due to high
discharge pressure. Self-contained models have a high
pressure switch only, while remote units have a double
switch, like the one shown in Figure 9. In older models
both types of applications had a double switch, triggering
the alarm “hp” for either a low or high pressure event. In
some recent remote applications, the pressure switch is
used for pump down purposes also.
Figure 9: Pressure Switch
Pressure Switch Working Principles – Alarm
Connection
The pressure switch has normally closed contacts that open
if the High or Low pressure limits are exceeded. The switch
is connected to the Main Board at terminals 48 and 50
in case of standard controller (48 is a shared connection
with the door switch), and terminals GND and D1 in the
Touch Screen version. When the pressure switch opens
from either a high or low pressure condition, the display will
show the error code “hP” (or message “HIGH PRESSURE” in
the Touch screen version) (see Figure 10).

pressures return to the normal range, the pressure switch
resets automatically. Current remote applications do not
have an alarm connection with the pressure switch, but
will be used to pump down by low pressure, or to cut out
compressor in case of high pressure (see Figure 10 and
Figure 11).
Pressure Switch Working Principles – Pump Down
Remote applications have a double pressure switch. A
solenoid valve feeds refrigerant to the evaporator. This
valve is closed when setpoint temperature is reached in
the cabinet, allowing the compressor to pump down until
pressure switch trips due to low suction pressure. The
pressure switch will cut out the compressor contactor’s coil
in this case, either for low pressure (pump down) or high
pressure (safety).
NOTE: No high pressure alarm message will
be displayed from the controller if the
remote chillers are working in pump down
conguration.
Pressure Switch Factory Setting
The pressure switch factory settings appear in the following
list:
NOTE: Do not change these settings!
• High pressure limit = 29 barg (425 psig)
• Low pressure limit = 0 barg (0 psig)
• Dierential = 1,2 barg (18 psig)
DOOR FRAME HEATER
Both Shock Freezer and Blast Chiller units come equipped
with a door frame heater to prevent frost build-up on
the door gasket. The heater may be either 115V or 220V
depending on the model/rating. For 220V 3-phase units (or
220V single-phase units with no neutral), the door frame
heater is connected between two live mains. The heater
runs around the frame, under a plastic strip cover (see
Figure 12). Electrical connections run through the lower
cabinet panel to the electrical component box.

USER GUIDE
Troubleshooting
Depending on the unit’s voltage rating, each load is directly
connected to either L1 or Neutral. L2 is switched by the
dedicated relay.
Checking Relay Outputs
When a component is not running, determine if the related
relay output is working properly. The relays should cut in
and o according to the logic sequences of the controller
(see Figure 13). To check an output, disconnect the input
line to the relay and the output wire (e.g., to check K10,
disconnect both wires on 19 and 20 terminals). Ohm out
the relay terminals and check if the contact is closed when
the relay is activated. Replace the board when a faulty
relay stays open or becomes shorted.

Monitor the communication between the Display and Power
Boards by looking at signals Ext/Int on the bottom left side
of the Display. Both signals blink “Blue” if communication
is good. One or both will blink “Red” if an error is occurs
(see Figure 23). Check the connection cable for continuity
to nd a cable issue, or troubleshoot the Display or Power
Boards.
Figure 23: Ext/Int Indicators
REFRIGERANT PRESSURES CHECKS
High or Low refrigerant pressure levels are dependent on:
• Ambient temperature
• Heat load in the cabinet (Full or Empty)
• Status of the cycle (hot food, frozen food, etc.)
• Cabinet temperature
• TX valve regulation
• Evaporator coil air ow
• Condenser coil air ow
Checking High and Low pressures on the unit cannot
determine if the unit is operating correctly. Careful
analysis, based on the conditions listed, is necessary to
properly diagnose a problem.
For example: Checking the suction pressure results in a
reading of 0.1 barg. This pressure could be correct if the
cabinet temperature is at the minimum (-40°C) and the
evaporator temperature is at -45°C.
If this is not the case, the evaporator may not be getting
sucient refrigerant and the actual evaporator temperature
could be much higher than -45°C. It is not recommended
to base any troubleshooting conclusions solely on the
pressure readings.
SUCTION PRESSURE: 0.1/0.2 barg
Measure this pressure when the cabinet temperature is at
-40°C with the compressor running.
DISCHARGE PRESSURE: 16 barg
This pressure can vary greatly and reach up to 25 barg
psig, depending on the ambient temperature and heat load
inside the cabinet. Very high discharge pressures can cause
the pressure switch to signal an alarm.

HOOK ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE UNIT
The Blast Chiller cabinet requires electrical power for the
evaporator fans (4 or 5 for a single rack model), electronics
controller, feeding valve, frame heater and similar. All the
mentioned components are single phase, therefore the unit
requires only two hot lines (or 1 line and neutral, depending
on the mains voltage). The voltage among lines must be
208V or 220-240V, either 50 or 60 Hz. To hook the power to
the cabinet just open the electrical metal box on the top of
the cabinet and connect L1 and L2 on the power block.

BASIC SERVICE DIAGNOSTIC (TOUCH SCREEN
CONTROLLER)
The Touch Screen Controller displays alarms that identify
the cause of a problem and the components and circuits
involved. In addition, a diagnostic service menu allows
technicians to quickly check the temperature sensors (such
as the needle probe, the chamber probe or the evaporator
probe), the relay status, the door switch input, and many
other things.
Alarm/Failure List
ALARM MESSAGE NOTES/CONSEQUENCES
DOOR The door is open for too long during a
cycle.
MAINTENAINCE Perform a regular service inspection
and preventive maintenance. Call
service for more information.
CONDENSER HIGH
TEMPERATURE
The condenser temperature is too
high if compared to a normal working
condition, dened by a temperature
threshold. For this version of Blast
Chiller, the alarm is not enabled,
because the condenser probe is not
installed.
HIGH PRESSURE Head pressure is too high, exceeding
29 barg (425 psig). Check for a
clogged condenser, condenser
fan motor not running a or pump
down valve not opening when the
compressor is running.
EVAPORATOR LOW
TEMPERATURE
The evaporator temperature is too low
when compared to the current setpoint
temperature. A dierential parameter
LBT states the maximum gap should
exist between setpoint temperature
and evaporator temperature. The alarm
may occur the setpoint temperature
changes during a multistep automatic
recipe, but the evaporator temperature
remains low. Avoid this non-critical
alarm by setting the LBT as high as
possible (i.e., 72°F [40°C]).
ALARM MESSAGE NOTES/CONSEQUENCES
DEFROSTING TIME The defrost process did not stop within
the maximum defrosting time. The
defrost ends by coil temperature (DTE).
If the stop does not happen within DTO
minutes, then the alarm triggers.
Check the evaporator coil icing status;
if one defrost is not enough, repeat
the defrost. If the alarm occurs during
the holding cycle, the problem may be
with the defrost device (hot gas valve).
Using the Blast Chiller as a holding
cabinet for too long may cause this
alarm.
ELECTRICAL
FEEDING
The voltage supply is not within the
safety range. The parameter MRV Main
Reference Voltage determines the
range by plus or minus 20%. Check the
voltage actual reading from the Energy
section during a cycle. Call Service if
low or high voltage is suspected.
LOW

After pressing the PLAY button, below “LOAD U1 ON” will
appear.
The relay #1 (output N‑U1 on the relay board) gets turned
on. After a few seconds, the power board feeds a signal
back to the display to prove that the relay is actually closed
(U1 becomes red and the STATUS will change to ON) (see
Figure 18).
Figure 18: Relay Displayed in Red
Meanwhile the power consumption on that relay output
will appear in the row ENERGY, to monitor if there is any
absorption by the component supplied by relay 1 and how
much the absorption is.
NOTE: When using an additional contactor or
power relay connected on the power
board, the power absorption will not show
the actual power pulled by the electrical
load connected with that contact or power
relay.
Press PLAY button to activate relay #2, or STOP to
de‑activate the relay (see Figure 17). Press the music icon
to test the buzzer.
