Alfa Laval Pasteurizer – Overview This pre-owned Alfa Laval
pasteurizer is designed for continuous thermal treatment of dairy
liquids, ensuring product safety and consistent quality for downstream
processing and packaging. Built by Alfa Laval engineering, it offers
reliable performance for beverage production and dairy operations
seeking a dependable second hand unit to integrate into a used
bottling line or industrial packaging environment. With a capacity
range of 3,000 to 5,000 L/h, it is well suited for medium-scale
production of milk destined for cheese, yogurt, sour cream, and
goatâs milk applications. Recognized for robust construction and
sanitary design, this pasteurizer supports efficient heat exchange and
stable process control. Its throughput and versatility make it a
practical choice for processors looking to optimize line efficiency
without compromising hygiene or product integrity. Technical
Specifications & Performance Data Manufacturer: Alfa Laval Year: 1998
Capacity: 3,000â5,000 L/h (maximum 5,000 L/h) Application:
Pasteurization of milk for cheese, yogurt, sour cream, and goatâs
milk Configuration: Continuous pasteurization system suitable for
integration in beverage production and dairy lines Advanced Automation
& Control Systems The unit is engineered to support precise thermal
control and holding times typical of continuous pasteurization
processes. Instrumentation and safeguards are designed to help
maintain consistent product temperatures across varying flow rates.
Control provisions support operational adjustments, recipe setpoints,
and monitoring to align with production standards in industrial
packaging and processing environments. Production Line Integration

3,000â5,000 L/h range, supporting consistent quality control and
dependable thermal performance. Installation Requirements & Site
Preparation Typical installation involves connection to process
utilities and alignment with existing production lines. Site
preparation generally includes adequate floor space for the heat
exchanger frame, piping access, and integration with plant utilities
and control systems. Exact dimensions, power supply, and utility
consumption should be verified against the equipmentâs technical
dossier prior to installation. Safety Standards & Compliance
Certification Constructed for sanitary processing, the pasteurizer
follows hygiene practices suitable for food and beverage applications.
Safety provisions typically include guarded hot surfaces, emergency
stop locations per industrial norms, and process interlocks to protect
operators and maintain product integrity. Buyers should verify
specific compliance documentation and certifications with the
technical file.
