Air Liquide is displaying the CRYO INJECTOR-CB3 at foodpro 2026, a patented, stainless steel cryogenic injector designed for bottom-injection temperature control applications. Engineered in accordance with European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG) guidelines, the injector features stainless steel food-contact surfaces and a self-sealing design to prevent food blockages.
The unit is used for batch processing in the meat, poultry, fish and seafood sectors. It retrofits onto single-wall mixer/grinders and mixer/blenders, and can be installed in configurations ranging from 2 to 16 injectors. For new machinery, control integrates into the existing PLC panel, while an optional electrical control panel is available for used equipment.
The CRYO INJECTOR-CB3 is compatible with both liquid nitrogen (ALIGAL 1) and liquid carbon dioxide (ALIGAL 2), achieving a flow rate of 12 kg/min for either cryogen. Operators can switch between the two gases by changing the internal calibrated insert.
