Combine snow ice and water and you have "slush". When injected into a box of produce, this liquid ice surrounds the vegetables within, filling any open spaces. The water then drains through holes in the box leaving behind instantly cooled vegetables blanketed in snow. Semco Manufacturing has designed a variety of Slush Ice systems called its "Sno Pac" line. The systems are absolutely salt-free and provide fast efficient operation with up to 2000 boxes per hour capacity. Both open box and pallet icing models (as shown) are available in a size to fit your needs. Both systems employ many Semco-plus design features insuring their dependable long life even in the most demanding operations. Some of these features include a rugged agitation system to maintain the ice particles suspended in the water preventing freeze-ups. Special high volume pumps move the slush mixture without plugging while requiring absolutely no salt. The system works equally well using block, cube, fragmented or flake ice. Semco engineers will design your system to work with your existing ice sources or can provide an ice plant for this system's use as well as your other ice needs.

Unlike top icing which can trap heat in vegetables, Semco's "Sno Pac" Slush Ice System provides total heat removal. Slush ice instantly penetrates produce from top to bottom for thorough cooling leaving a blanket of snow behind.

Excellent for: Broccoli, Sweet corn, Leafy greens, Melons, Green onions, and many more!

SP-2400 Twin Line "Sno Pac" Single Tank Mixing and Overflow Recapture System is ideally recessed below floor level to minimize ice and water loss. Skid mounted above the floor systems are also available. Sloped Drain Area recaptures water while providing space for sealing boxes. Hydraulically Powered Agitation System maintains a uniform Ice slurry throughout the system preventing freeze up. Heavy Duty "Salt-Free" Slush Ice Pump requires only 10 to 15 HP for economical operation. The high-volume 8" pump easily moves the ice particles without plugging while requiring absolutely no salt.

Semco's "Sno Pac" Standard Features for High Capacity Operation High Capacity Continuous Flow System processes up to 1200 boxes per hour by feeding open boxes continually beneath the injection nozzle. Efficient Hydraulic Power Unit uses one 10HP, 3 phase, 230/460 volt motor to drive the entire system. Electrical circuitry has been strategically designed away from ice and water area for user safety. Hydraulically Powered PVC Roller Conveyor feeds boxes at user selected rates. Operator controlled start and stop controls allow for individual box icing.
