BATCH STERILIZERS
ASTEPO designs and construct "aseptic pan" batch sterilizers, specially studied for thermal treatment and aseptic filling in the fruit transformation industry (products with pieces, wildberries) to obtain bases for yogurt, confectionery, etc.
| This specific and original type of plant carries out the following operations: |
- feeding of fruit in pieces or rolling (frozen too)
- homogeneous mixing of various ingredients in the whole mass
-
vacuum concentration up to the desired Brix degree
-
pasteurizing/sterilizing at the temperature and for the requested resting time according to the product type and operator selection
-
rapid cooling of the entire mass
-
sterile adding of flavors and additives
- product transferring – without pump - in sterile tanks of 200-800 – 1000 litres or in flexible bags 3-1000 lt (bag-in-box type).
|
All these operations are carried out in a delicate way to avoid fruit breaking and controlled by an electronic control panel with auto-diagnostic to avoid any human mistake. The parts in contact with product are in stainless steel AISI 316, the thermal exchange is indirect type and can be modulated in all the phases, according to type of product characteristics. These sterilizing plants are available on request with pan with effective volume of 800 or 1600 lt, even linkable. Construction is on skid and in compliance with CEE standards.
