Indirect Uht treatment for high viscous products with particles
Optimize your production line with a unit that ensures high particle integrity and consistent quality for viscous products, all while integrating seamlessly into existing processes for efficient and flexible operations.
Processes High Viscosity and Particulate Liquid Foods
The Tetra Pak® Indirect UHT unit PFF features a coiled heat exchanger designed for the efficient processing of high-viscosity and particulate liquid foods. This unit maintains the integrity of particles while ensuring high product quality and unparalleled food safety. It operates using an indirect ultra-high temperature (UHT) treatment, which optimizes heat transfer through a meticulously calculated heat load, reducing the risk of overcooking and preserving natural flavors. Capable of handling 2,000 to 15,000 liters per hour, it supports applications ranging from puddings and fruit jams with chunks to plant-based and prepared foods like Greek yogurt and vegan cheese sauce.
The Tetra Pak® unit boasts hygienic design principles with advanced automation for full traceability and reduced human error, featuring cleaning-in-place (CIP) programs tailored for tough operating conditions. Its flexible hardware configuration facilitates customization and future upgrades, making it suitable for both current and evolving product lines. With its robust and proven component selection, the unit easily integrates into existing production lines while assuring efficient, continuous operation.
