A specialized packaging station that modifies the internal atmosphere of sealed containers to extend the shelf life of perishable fish products.
Technical details and manufacturing context for Controlled Atmosphere Packaging (CAP) Station
| Parameter | Typical range | Notes & selection driver |
|---|---|---|
| Gas Flush Time | 1–5 s | Affects residual oxygen level; longer time for larger packages. |
| Gas Mixing Accuracy | ±1 % | Critical for consistent O2/CO2/N2 ratios. |
| Residual Oxygen Level | 0.5–2 % | Lower level extends shelf life; below 0.5% may require double gas flush. |
| Sealing Temperature | 120–180 °C | Too low leads to weak seal; too high may damage film. |
| Sealing Pressure | 0.4–0.6 MPa | Insufficient pressure causes leaks. |
| Production Capacity | 600–1200 packs/h | Depends on package size and gas flush time. |
| Film Width | 200–500 mm | Must match packaging film roll. |
| Power Supply | 220–380 V | Three-phase for industrial models. |
| Power Consumption | 2.5–5.5 kW | Higher for larger sealing area. |
| Compressed Air Supply | 0.6–0.8 MPa | Required for pneumatic actuators. |
| Operating Temperature | 10–40 °C | Outside range may affect sealing quality. |
| Noise Level | ≤70 dB(A) | Complies with workplace safety standards. |
| Machine Weight | 350–800 kg | Affects installation and floor loading. |

CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The gas flush time (1–5 seconds) determines how long the gas mixture is injected into the package. It affects the residual oxygen level; longer flush times are needed for larger packages to achieve the desired atmosphere. Verify the optimal setting for your package size with the manufacturer.
Lower residual oxygen levels (0.5–2%) slow aerobic microbial growth and oxidation, extending shelf life. If levels below 0.5% are required, a double gas flush may be necessary. Confirm the achievable level for your product with the supplier.
Sealing temperature (120–180°C) and pressure (0.4–0.6 MPa) are critical. Too low temperature or pressure can cause weak seals or leaks, while too high temperature may damage the film. Always verify these settings for your packaging film.
The station requires a three-phase power supply (220–380 V), compressed air (0.6–0.8 MPa), and operates within 10–40°C ambient temperature. Power consumption is 2.5–5.5 kW. Confirm exact requirements with the manufacturer.
