Plate pasteurizer

steamfor the beverage industryfruit juice

Overview
The Plate Pasteurizer is designed for pasteurizing products such as fresh milk, milk beverages, fruit juice, tea, alcohol and ice cream, and can also be used for pre-sterilization when producing long shelf life pasteurized milk.

Process temperature profile
5℃ → 65℃ (homogenization) → 85–95℃ (15 s) → 5℃

Production capacity
500 L/h – 20 t/h (models ZL16-3-0.5 to ZL35-3-20)

Application
The unit is suitable for continuous pasteurization of fresh milk, milk beverages, fruit juices, tea-based drinks, alcoholic beverages and ice cream mixes. It can be integrated as a pre-sterilization step for long shelf life pasteurized products.

Equipment characteristics

• Efficient heat recovery and low energy consumption; compact layout for limited floor space.
• Can be connected with separator, homogenizer, flash evaporator and degasser.
• Control options: Fully automatic PLC with touchscreen or Semi-automatic PID control for process regulation.
