It is used in the production of jam, marmalade, molasses, tomato paste, ketchup, sauce and for products whose water is required to evaporate (evaporation). It is used to cook the product under an average vacuum of 600-650mmHg, at a boiling temperature of about 55-60°C. Thanks to cooking at low temperature boiling point, the natural taste, aroma, color and nutritional value of the product do not deteriorate and HMF (hydroxymethylfurfural), a harmful chemical compound, is not formed.
It works as a fill-and-empty batch method; Raw material loading volume: max. 700 liters – Product discharge volume: min. 250 liters
Construction is made of AISI 304 CrNi stainless steel material.
It consists of three main parts:
- Vacuum Cooking Boiler (Bull)
- Pectin etc. Preparation Tank
- Holding Tank
Jam Production Capacity: up to a maximum of 500 kg/lot.
Evaporation capacity: up to 250 liters/hour of water. (Theoretical value for boiling pure water when the system is at steady state. This value may vary for different products)
There will be an Electrical Control Panel.
Overall Dimensions (L*W*H): approx. 320cm.*180cm.*340cm.
Net Weight : approx. 1250 kg
Electricity Consumption: 380-400VAC, 50Hz, 3phase + N + PE; Total power (7.2 kW)
Water Consumption: approx. 10 t/h at 16-18°C, p=2-2.5bar (inlet 2”) (can be reduced by using cooling tower)
Steam Consumption: BULL [500 kg/hr (3bar + HOLDING TANK [250 kg/hr (1.5bar + PECTIN TANK [100 kg/hr (3bar
