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
separator—already included in the setup—and 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.
