Product Overview

Key Benefits

Process profile built for yoghurt: 90 to 95°C held for 300 seconds, out at 43°C
Outlet temperature matched to inoculation, so no separate cooling step is needed
High heat recovery keeps energy consumption down
Capacity from 500 to 20,000 litres per hour
Semi automatic or full automatic control

Problems It Solves

Yoghurt mix that has to be cooled separately before inoculation
Hold times that are too short to give the protein denaturation yoghurt needs
Energy cost from heating without recovery
Heat treatment that cannot be documented for quality records

Where It Is Used

Compared With The Alternatives

Plate pasteuriser	The standard plate pasteuriser runs 85°C for 15 seconds and leaves product at 5°C; the yoghurt version holds 90 to 95°C for 300 seconds and leaves it at 43°C ready for culture.
Batch heat treatment	Batch treatment works at small scale but is slow, uses more energy and is harder to document consistently.

Use Guide

Confirm the hold time your recipe needs, since it drives yoghurt texture
Check the 43°C outlet against your culture's inoculation temperature
Feed the fermentation tanks directly to avoid a separate cooling step
Include the plate pack in the CIP circuit design

Questions
