CLEAN-FLOW®

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the 30" CLEAN-FLOW® system by Lyco Manufacturing, a leader in innovative food processing machinery. It focuses on the Continuous Blancher Cooker/Cooler and the EASY-FLOW™ High Capacity Particulate Cooler, highlighting their design, functionality, and benefits.
How It Works: Products are conveyed into the cooler via an infeed hopper and then moved to a dewatering screen. The design ensures no damage to the product. Cooling can be done in one or multiple stages depending on the application.
Benefits of EASY-FLOW:
  • Capacities range from 200 PPH to 30,000 PPH.
  • Rapid cooling with a small footprint.
  • Significantly reduced cooling times.
  • Consistent and uniform results.
  • Open, sanitary, and easy-to-clean design.
Environmental Considerations: The system promotes energy savings by using ambient city or well water in the first stage and reusing heated water as preheated blancher makeup water.
Typical Results: The system can cool products from 200°F (94°C) to 40°F (4.4°C) in less than 30 seconds, with specific cooling stages detailed for efficiency.
Applications: Suitable for pasta, dry beans, vegetables, rice, potatoes, and other fragile products.
Cleaning and Maintenance: Features a Clean-In-Place manifold with spray nozzles for simultaneous cleaning, reducing clean-up time from hours to minutes.
Hydro-Flow® Agitation Benefits:
  • Suspends product in motion for uniform cooking.
  • Adjusts for different products, eliminating sticking and clumping.
  • Increases yield by up to 15%.
  • Reduces electricity, steam, and water usage.
  • Minimizes waste production.
Cook Quench Chill System: Combining the Clean-Flow Cooker and Easy-Flow™ Cooler offers a more efficient system than traditional methods, improving productivity and reducing freezer costs.
Company Background: Lyco Manufacturing has over 50 years of experience and has sold over 750 units globally, serving top producers in North America.
