The ACCU-CHILL automated box chilling system from Linde LLC, Bridgewater, N.J., can quickly chill meat, poultry, seafood and other perishable foods directly in their packing boxes with carbon dioxide (CO₂) snow. The automated system is the ideal upgrade for operations that manually pack boxes with CO₂ dry ice pellets, where over- or under-filling creates temperature inconsistencies.

Designed and built to meet USDA requirements, the instant, on-demand system chills with high process repeatability from box to box. As each packing box is conveyed into the enclosed chilling zone, a sensor is activated and a precise amount of CO₂ snow is automatically dispensed on or around the product.

The chilling zone is also designed with an exhaust hood to prevent elevated concentrations of CO₂ in the workplace. The new chilling system handles boxes up to about 24 inches wide, and can fit most automated packing lines.
