    3. Only 2.2 kW (3.0 hp) of electricity to pasteurize more than 120 liters per hour (700 liters per day)
    4. Automatic control of the water bath temperature with a setpoint between 70 and 92°C (198°F) (from thermization at 65°C to "cooking" for yogurt at 85°C)
  4. Documentation And Certification
    1. Warranty duration: 3 months
    2. Documentation/manual
    3. Type plate available
  5. Operating Details
    1. Manhole location: bottom
    2. Pressure: 0.4 bar
    3. Volume flow: 0.15 m³/h
    4. Gravity-fed milk flow: provides stable flow and smooth regulation
    5. The milk or juice is fed or pumped into an intermediate container at a height of 4 meters and flows from there to the bottling station
    6. A pump supplies this container at the elevated height
    7. It also ensures effective cleaning through intense detergent circulation
    8. Manual control by the operator at the bottling station with alarms for "too fast" filling (incomplete pasteurization) or "too slow" filling (product overheated): the operator can then slow down or speed up the bottling process
    9. No contact with air: Hygienic and precise processing!
  6. Basic Pasteurizer Components
    1. A heat exchanger between the incoming (cold) milk (or juice) and the pasteurized milk (or juice) (72°C)
    2. A heating tank (2.2kW, temperature adjustable to 5°C above the pasteurization setpoint) in which a coil is immersed, through which the liquid exiting the heat exchanger circulates
    3. A well-insulated holding tube where the milk/juice is kept for 15 seconds at the pasteurization temperature
    4. A temperature controller to illuminate a light if the liquid is too cold and another if the liquid is too hot
    5. A tube leading to the elevated inlet container, tubes connecting all components, one or two tubes with a Mohr clamp for manual filling of bottles (optional bottling unit) or jars (one at a time)
    6. A drain valve at the lowest point (after pasteurization and holding, and before returning to the heat exchanger): allows the circuit to be emptied down to the last drop of pasteurized product
  7. Transfer Pump With Controls
    1. Prevents the need to transport milk or juice by pumping it from where it is located (tank on a trailer, refrigerated tank, receiving tank, container, etc.) to the inlet tank of the pasteurizer on the upper floor
    2. Automatic pause when the inlet tank of the pasteurizer is full (conductivity probes)
    3. Automatic restart when the level drops
    4. Performance between 8 and 25 liters per minute (depending on the height difference)
    5. Also ensures powerful cleaning of the entire pasteurization circuit
    6. Food-grade design and materials
    7. Electrical consumption of 400 W
  8. Options
    1. Option: 200µm basket filter for wort, juices, and herbal extracts with moderate alcohol content
    2. Option: "Manual gravity-fed bottling unit with automatic stop, 180 liters per hour": twice the throughput with less work!
  9. Specifications
    1. Air contact: none
    2. Water bath temperature setpoint c: 70-92
