A tubular hot filling UHT sterilizer is a piece of equipment used in the food and beverage industry to sterilize and fill products that require high-temperature treatment. UHT stands for "ultra-high temperature," and it refers to the process of heating a product at a very high temperature for a short period of time to eliminate microorganisms and extend its shelf life.
The tubular hot filling UHT sterilizer consists of a series of interconnected tubes through which the product flows. The product is heated by indirect contact with steam or hot water circulating outside the tubes. The sterilization temperature typically ranges from 135°C to 150°C, depending on the specific product requirements.
The UHT sterilizer incorporates a holding tube that allows the product to be held at the sterilization temperature for the required amount of time. This ensures the elimination of bacteria, yeast, and other harmful microorganisms present in the product.
After sterilization, the product is rapidly cooled down using a heat exchanger before being filled into containers. The filling process is usually done under aseptic conditions to maintain the sterility of the product. The containers are sealed immediately after filling to prevent any re-contamination.
Tubular hot filling UHT sterilizers are commonly used for various liquid products such as dairy beverages, fruit juices, sauces, soups, and even pharmaceutical products. These sterilizers offer a high level of efficiency, precision, and reliability in the sterilization process, ensuring the safety and quality of the final product.
In summary, a tubular hot filling UHT sterilizer is an essential piece of equipment in the food and beverage industry for efficiently sterilizing and filling products that require high-temperature treatment, extending their shelf life and ensuring consumer safety.
Technical：
1) 5℃→65℃(homogenizer)→115℃/125℃(5-15S)→88℃-90℃，for hot filling；2) 5℃→65℃(homogenizer)→115℃/125℃(5-15S)→75℃-78℃，for middle temperature filling；
Tubular sterilizer performs the hot processing on the liquid foods and beverage. Compared to the other model, it has the following characteristics:
1. High heat efficiency, 90% of heat can be reused after the product be processed;
2. Temperature difference between the product and the heating medium is small, so the heating is gentle;
3. It is of high degree automatic, can automatically control the CIP cleaning, self sterilizing, and the whole procedures steps; all the procedures are recorded and controllable;
4. It is of precise and reliable sterilizing temperature control; all the affecting factors such as steam pressure, steam flow rate, product flow rate are all controllable;
5. The inside of the tubular adopts advanced polish procedure, all tubes can perform fully cleaning, self sterilizing ensures the system at aseptic state;
6. The system is strong safety, the fittings all adopts reliable materials;
7. The system is of high reliable, main parts such as product pump, hot water pump, all kinds of valves, elements of the electrics are all of world known brands.
8. With self SIP.
