Used Flow Pasteurizer with separator 2000 L/h Structure and Operating
Principle The Used Flow Pasteurizer with separator 2000 L/h operates
as a continuous flow pasteurizer with a plate heat exchanger, designed
specifically for the thermal processing of milk and cream. The system
uses a plate heat exchanger to ensure efficient heat transfer,
enabling rapid product heating and cooling. As a result, it maintains
product quality while maximizing energy efficiency. Moreover, the
continuous operation delivers a consistent throughput of 2,000 liters
per hour. Therefore, this model suits medium-scale facilities that
demand precise thermal treatment and high microbiological safety
standards. Construction Features and Manufacturer Jedinstvo, a
Croatian manufacturer, built the Used Flow Pasteurizer with separator
2000 L/h in 1998 under model number 43.107072. At present, the machine
remains dismantled and securely stored. It measures 2800 mm in length,
1500 mm in width, and 2500 mm in height. Notably, the stainless-steel
frame provides high durability, while hygienic finishes ensure full
compliance with food-grade processing regulations. In particular, the
design facilitates cleaning and minimizes the risk of contamination.
Thus, it supports continuous operation in demanding dairy
environments. Thermal Processing Parameters The Used Flow Pasteurizer
with separator 2000 L/h handles specific temperature ranges based on
the product type. For example, milk requires a pasteurization
temperature of 78°C to 80°C. In contrast, cream undergoes
processing at up to 95°C. Subsequently, the system cools the
product using technical water, bringing the output temperature down to
6°C or 7°C. Consequently, it preserves both product freshness
and nutritional value. From a process perspective, these thermal
profiles support regulatory compliance and shelf-life extension.
Processing Stages and Product Flow The Used Flow Pasteurizer with
separator 2000 L/h includes four operational sections. Specifically,
the layout features a retention zone mounted above the system frame.
The product travels through stainless-steel retention tubes for
approximately 30 seconds. Afterward, it returns to the second section
to complete the pasteurization cycle. Furthermore, the line integrates
an outlet to a separatorâalready included in the setupâand a
dedicated outlet to a homogenizer for milk. In addition, the modular
layout allows seamless integration into existing lines. Consequently,
operators benefit from greater flexibility and reduced setup times.
Safety and Application Areas The Used Flow Pasteurizer with separator
2000 L/h features built-in safety mechanisms that monitor both
pressure and temperature. As such, the system ensures secure and
stable operation during intensive processing cycles. Operators
previously used it for cream separation and pasteurization of both
milk and cream. Nevertheless, the system also adapts to other
food-grade liquids with similar processing needs. In summary, its
robust technical features, compact footprint, and flexible output
options make it a reliable solution. Therefore, this unit represents
an efficient choice for dairy and liquid food industries.
