The Water Chiller from Dutch Poultry Tech is designed to wash and pre-chill eviscerated poultry before further processing steps such as weighing, portioning, and packing. Using a screw-driven system, birds are transported through chilled water, ensuring consistent and controlled cooling throughout the process.
By lowering the core product temperature, the system helps prevent deterioration in meat quality and limits microbial growth. The machine is available in modular sections of 3 and 6 meters, which can be combined to match different production capacities and plant layouts. Built from stainless steel and supplied with an air blower and control panel, the Water Chiller offers a hygienic and efficient solution for poultry processing lines, especially when producing frozen end products.

The Water Chiller from Dutch Poultry Tech is a key component in the poultry processing line, designed to cool down carcasses after evisceration and washing. This process is essential to reduce the product core temperature before further processing steps such as weighing, portioning, packing, or freezing.
The system uses a screw-driven transport mechanism that moves poultry through a tank filled with chilled water. As the birds travel through the system, they are continuously washed and cooled, ensuring uniform temperature reduction across all products. This method is highly effective in quickly lowering the product temperature, which helps prevent bacterial growth and preserves meat quality.
Water chilling is especially suitable for processing lines where the end product is frozen, as it provides efficient and rapid cooling. The system also contributes to improving product consistency by ensuring that each carcass reaches the desired temperature before entering the next stage of processing.
Key features include:
The modular design allows processors to configure the system according to their required capacity, with typical capacities ranging from 1,000 to 6,000 birds per hour depending on the length of the chiller.
By combining washing and cooling in a single step, the Water Chiller improves efficiency, reduces processing time, and ensures that poultry products meet strict hygiene and quality standards before final processing or storage.
Dutch Poultry Tech has many videos available on YouTube demonstrating it’s machines.
The Water Chiller integrates into Dutch Poultry Tech’s Pluck & Play concept, offering a flexible and easy-to-install solution for efficient poultry cooling and pre-chilling.
Dutch Poultry Tech develops efficient poultry processing solutions focused on automation, hygiene, and ease of use, helping processors worldwide achieve consistent performance and reliable results.
