Description:
The base unit comprises a stainless steel table for mounting the process equipment, a feed pump and vessel, the touchscreen control panel and all associated electrical controls housed in an IP65 cabinet. On top of the table are four mounting positions for the selected heat exchangers. There is also space for a variable holding tube. Under the tabletop are storage positions for unused heat exchangers, plus space for the optional vacuum and extraction pumps used for direct heating. There is also space for the optional integrated homogeniser. The system is PLC controlled, with a high-resolution TFT 8” colour touchscreen panel. All operation functions are controlled from this panel, including configuration, mode of operation (sterilisation, process or Clean In Place). Different sets of processing parameters can be edited, stored and quickly recalled using the system’s menu capability.
