Plate Pasteurizer supplied by TrueGlow Imaging

Product Overview

A plate pasteuriser handling 500 L/H to 20,000 L/H in SUS304 or SUS316L, for fresh milk, dairy beverages, fruit juice, tea, beer and ice cream mix. The process runs product in at 5 degrees C, homogenising at 65 degrees C, pasteurising at 85 degrees C for 15 seconds, then out at 5 degrees C. It is usually connected to a degasser, separator and homogenizer, and comes with a plate heat exchanger, product pump, hot water pump, hot water tank, product balance tank and a Schneider electrical cabinet. Semi-auto and full-auto control are both available.

Key benefits

Why Buyers Choose This Specification

Complete Process Flow Published

5 degrees in, homogenise at 65, pasteurise at 85 for 15 seconds, 5 degrees out. That is the entire thermal profile, stated, rather than agreed during commissioning.

Supplied as a Working Skid

Plate pack, product pump, hot water pump, hot water tank and balance tank all come together. A pasteuriser without a balance tank is not a pasteuriser.

Integrates With the Rest of the Line

It is designed to connect to the degasser, separator and homogenizer, so it is part of a process rather than a standalone machine.

Semi-Auto for Smaller Plants

Full automation is not always the right capital decision at 500 L/H. Both are available.

Application scenarios

Where It Is Used

  • Pasteurising fresh milk in a dairy
  • Treating dairy beverages before filling
  • Fruit juice pasteurisation
  • Tea drink and beer processing
  • Ice cream mix pasteurisation
  • Small dairy plants at 500 L/H
Who it is for

The Buyers This Product Suits

Dairy Processors

Fresh milk pasteurisation at 85 degrees for 15 seconds is the standard HTST process, and this machine runs it.

Juice and Tea Drink Producers

Both are named applications, and plate pasteurisation is the efficient choice for thin liquids.

Ice Cream Manufacturers

Ice cream mix is pasteurised before ageing and freezing, and is a named application here.

Problems it solves

What It Fixes

Pasteurisation Records That Cannot Be Defended

A defined process flow under semi-auto or full-auto control gives a repeatable, recordable thermal treatment.

Buying a Plate Pack and Assembling the Rest

The pasteuriser is supplied with pumps, hot water set, balance tank and control cabinet as one system.

Heat Cost per Litre

Plate heat exchangers recover heat between the incoming and outgoing product streams, which is why they are used on thin liquids.

How It Ships And What Comes With It

Packing And Loading

Shipping volume for this item depends on the configuration and capacity you select, so no fixed container figure is published. Confirm the specification and the destination and a loading plan is issued with the quotation, rather than a figure we cannot support.

Documentation On File

Sourcing And Inspection

This product is supplied through TrueGlow Imaging, working with manufacturing partners whose facilities are visited and verified rather than taken on trust. In-process quality control and delivery supervision are available so goods are inspected before the container is sealed. Certifications quoted on this page are those stated on the product specification and belong to that product range rather than to our trading entity, so ask for the certificate covering your specific item.

Handling guide

Getting It Right First Time

Step 1

Confirm your required pasteurisation temperature and holding time against the 85 degrees and 15 second standard.

Step 2

Size the unit against line flow rather than daily volume.

Step 3

Plan the connection to the degasser, separator and homogenizer at design stage.

Step 4

Validate the flow diversion function at commissioning and at intervals afterwards.

Step 5

Include plate pack inspection and gasket replacement in the maintenance plan.
