- Compression head and Homogenizing valve
+ The compression head is manufactured from a single block of high quality stainless steel, of special type, forged and checked with ultrasounds, with a 5 year guarantee against cracking and defects
+ The pumping pistons are coated with special “Diamond Like Carbon” plating (as a standard)
+ The valve group assemblies have replaceable seats and hemispherical valve shutters, making them ideal for processing a wide range of products
+ The Homogenizing valves are designed to be energy efficient, with high stability and alignment of the moving parts (impact head) due to the hydrodynamic assembly, which ensures a vibration free homogenisation
+ Safety valve, in sanitary execution, of spring type with replaceable shutter and seat
- Motorization – Structure
+ The pump body is made from a thick walled premium grade high-resistance cast iron, engineered to withstand heavy loads and cancel out vibration
+ The crankshaft is made from a special steel, machined from a solid piece, which has been heat treated and with superfinishing of the goosenecks and complete nitriding; the crankshaft is supported by robust roller bearings (with bronze bearings used only on the crank pins)
+ Power transmission with a double reduction stage: “V” belts with reduction gear with parallel axes, sourced from a leading Company (eliminating the need for water cooling)
+ 3 phase, 4 pole, AC electric drive motor supplied by a leading Company
+ Lubricating plant of pressurized type. The correct oil level is checked by a proper inspection window installed on the front side of the machine and a warning light turns on in the event of irregular oil pressure, and a driven filtering out of possible impurities. For the best thermal balance/dissipating all transmission components are immersed in an oil bath
+ The frame consists of a thick square-section of carbonated steel, and powder coated, and supplied with dismountable panels made of stainless steel with satin finish
- Maintenance kit
+ Initial set of spare parts supplied with the machine include the following: full set of gaskets, a set of springs for valves and a complete safety valve set
+ Set of tools for ordinary maintenance
+ Lubrication oil (pump body and gearbox)
+ Instruction and maintenance manuals (2 copies + CD ROM)
- Standard options
+ 2nd stage homogenizing valve controlled by a special oil-pneumatic system
+ Digital pressure transducers and analogue gauges with 4-20 ma output
+ Variable Capacity (A stainless steel panel mounted directly above the machine)
+ Fixed Capacity (internal electrical board)
+ Aseptic Version with “sterility barriers” traced with steam condensate created by an integrated plant
+ Pulsation dampeners on product inlet and/or outlet connections, for special aseptic version as well
+ Pressure gauge with alarm contacts for the automatic cut-off of the homogenizing pressure, complete with timing device to manage the start/stop of the homogenizing valves
+ Automatic homogenization pressure controller
