fat-, protein-, H²O-measuring for milk processing

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides technical details on milk processing and the measurement of organic constituents in dairy products using the HK4 evaluation unit with NIR technology. It covers various milk products, their processing, and the technology used for quality assurance.
Milk Processing: The document outlines the processing of milk from cows, goats, or sheep into various products such as cream, butter, buttermilk, consumption milk, evaporated milk, cream cheese, yogurt, and milk soft drinks. Each product is described in terms of its production process and characteristics.
Measurement Technology: The HK4 evaluation unit utilizes the latest NIR technology with a diode array for the online measurement of fat, protein, and water in milk products. This technology is crucial for quality assurance in milk processing, allowing for continuous monitoring of organic constituents.
Technical Specifications: The NIR sensor operates with a halogen lamp in the 1200nm - 1700nm range and provides five analogue outputs (0/4-20mA). It features a rugged industrial design, is maintenance-free, and supports quick connections with RS232/RS485 interfaces. The system is protected with an IP65 rating and operates in temperatures ranging from -20 to +85°C.
Calibration and Software: The system includes chemometric calibration software (SPECTER) with basic calibration at delivery and simple start-up using one-point calibration. This ensures accurate and reliable measurements.
Company Information: Harrer & Kassen GmbH, based in Germany, has 25 years of experience in the field, offering innovative solutions for the dairy industry. Contact details and further information are provided for inquiries.

fat-, protein-, H²O-measuring for milk processing-1

Dairy Products, Creameries milk processing: milk products, cream, curd, jogurt measurements for fabrication of liquid and pasty products fat-, protein-, H²O-measuring for milk processing latest NIR-technology with diode array. wherever organic constituents in milk products are relevant issues The origin of every milk product is the milk. Independent if the milk is from cows, goats or sheep. With the value of the total solids (TS) all constituents (like protein, fat, lactose, mineral materials, trace elements, vitamins etc.) of the milk or of a milk product are summarised, except water. The absorption of all molecules in the CH-, NH- and OH-compounds enables the ONLINE-measuring of fat, free fat, protein, H²O etc. cream: From the rich part of the milk different products like cream or butter are fabricated. A big portion will be processed industrially. butter: The cream is affected as long as the shells of the small fat bullets are mechanically destroyed and butter grains are emerged. Sour-, Standardbutter. buttermilk: In the butter process the rich butter grains are mechanically milk products kneaded and the rest of the cream constituents are fluxional refined. consumption milk: Generic term for all kinds of milk in the stability levels fresh milk, UHT milk, pasteurised milk and the different fat content levels skimmed milk 0,3%, defatted milk 1,5%, fresh full cream milk 3,8% evaporated milk: The water of the milk is revoked by evaporation. cream cheese: Acidification of the milk with lactobacilli. In accordance to the consistency its devided in curd-, cream- and cottage cheese. jogurt: The milk acidulates by lactobacilli and the milk protein coagulates. gerinnt. Heating until the required degree of oxygen is achieved . Belated fruit preparations. Standard jogurt, preserved und stirred jogurt. milk soft drinks: Intermixtures of e.g. cocoa- and strawberry powder. For quality assurance the continuous ONLINE-measurement of the required organig constituents fat, protein and water is performed. The measurement is effected by a NIR-sensor online in a flow cell directly in the pipe or in a measuring cell directly at the tank. The NIR-measurement is performed with the reflection principle.
