• Handles a wide range of products
• Enables simple, flexible production
• Maintains consistent high product quality
• Maintains food safety with sterile air

The high hygiene tank is designed to maintain consistent high product quality by using a separate inlet and outlet to prevent product recirculation. It features gentle agitation to protect particle integrity and ensure even distribution. An optional slow paddle-type agitator allows it to handle a variety of products, from low to high viscosity, and from smooth to particulate. Constant sterile air flow prevents contamination, ensuring food safety. The unit is designed for easy on-site installation and accommodates differences in capacity between the pasteurizer and filler, enabling flexible production.

The high hygiene tank serves as an intermediate buffer tank between a pasteurizer and a filling machine, balancing capacity differences.

The tank is sanitized with steam introduced from the end valve cluster, exiting through the air vent. Sterile air then evacuates remaining steam and cools the tank. Product enters and exits through separate inlets and outlets, ensuring turnover and preventing recirculation. Sterile air flows over the product surface to prevent microorganism entry. The tank is cleaned in place (CIP) using an external CIP station with internal nozzles for efficient cleaning.

The unit is an atmospheric vessel with no overpressure allowed, standing on four legs. Components are pre-assembled, and a line-end valve cluster is provided as a separate sub-unit.
