Claryfing agent dosing station for beverage production

Ensure precise clarifying agent dosing in beverage production with minimal space and seamless integration to your existing depectinisation tanks, enhancing product clarity and quality.

Doses and Mixes Clarifying Agents Precisely

The Clarifying Agent Dosing Station from Bucher Unipektin is engineered for the precise addition of clarifying agents in the beverage and food industry. It features a fully automatic operation with a user-friendly SIEMENS SIMATIC HMI control panel and optional touch screen visualization. This station excels in applications such as fruit juice concentrates, clarified fruit juices, and gelatinous beverages, offering a seamless integration with your production line for continuous dosing and mixing processes.

Equipped with four tanks, the station accommodates various preparation needs: bentonite solution in two tanks, sol in the third, and gelatinous solution in the fourth, which includes a circulation pump and heat exchanger for optimal temperature control. With tank capacities adaptable to specific requirements, it ensures precise dosing and a compact footprint.

The system is designed for energy efficiency, using a circulation pump with a capacity of up to 10 m³/h and an optional electrical heating system, which enhances operational efficiency. Constructed from AIS! 304/316L stainless steel, it offers excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for demanding processing environments.

Moreover, this dosing station supports adherence to HACCP standards by archiving dosing data, ensuring compliance with food safety regulations. Customization options such as bentonite feeding systems and concentrated enzyme dosing enhance its versatility, making it an integral component for producers aiming for high-quality, clarified end-products.
