Balance tank for pasteurization systems

When producing dairy, juice, or other beverage products, maintaining a constant supply of unpasteurized fluid to the heat exchanger is crucial. Challenges include fluctuations in supply levels and ensuring constant pressure to the booster pump to avoid product inconsistency.

Maintain constant fluid levels for pasteurization

The Balance Tank from A&B Process Systems, part of JBT, holds unpasteurized products at a consistent working level, ensuring a constant net positive suction head to the HTST booster pump. Available as both standard and customizable tanks, it features a sloped bottom for complete drainage and a hinged lid for easy access. Standard sizes range from 30 to 300 gallons. Its pre-engineered design ensures quicker shipping and lower overall costs. Ideal for dairy and juice production, this tank maintains the overflow level below the lowest connection on the raw regenerator section of the heat exchanger, ensuring smooth operations.
