Compared With The Alternatives
| Retort steriliser | The tunnel runs continuously at pasteurisation temperature for chilled or extended shelf life; the retort works in batches at higher temperature for ambient stable product. |
|---|---|
| Plate pasteuriser | A plate pasteuriser treats product before filling; the tunnel treats it in the sealed pack, which removes any risk of post pasteurisation contamination. |
Use Guide
- Give the pack type and product so the temperature profile can be designed rather than copied
- Set pasteurisation units from your product's requirement, not from a default
- Plan water recovery at layout stage since it saves significant volume
- Check conveyor width against your largest pack format
