Flash pasteuriser for high-quality fresh juice
In commercial juice production, maintaining the freshness and natural properties of juice while ensuring health safety can be challenging. Through traditional pasteurization methods, balancing these factors often requires trade-offs that compromise juice quality.
Preserve fresh juice flavor with fast pasteurization
The Zumex ZF1000 Flash Pasteuriser is designed to deliver high-quality freshly squeezed juice by using a high pitch plate heat exchanger in two or three stages: regeneration, pasteurizing, and chilling. This pasteurizer is optimal for juices with up to 10% pulp content and can process up to 1000 liters per hour. Flash technology ensures that the juice is pasteurized and chilled in seconds, maintaining its original flavor, color, and aroma. The system allows the adjustment of temperature and pasteurizing times to match the required expiry dates, keeping the juice’s organoleptic properties intact. For high-viscosity juices, a variant with a tubular exchanger is available. The equipment includes a built-in CIP cleaning system, level and temperature probes, and an electronic control panel for monitoring all process variables. Zumex Food Engineering offers this pasteurizer with energy-efficient regenerative stages, making it suitable for maintaining juice quality and safety.
