Vacuum honey dryer VHD50
The price is indicated without a source of compressed air - compressor (optional).
This is periodic type of equipment designed for removing moisture and excess water from honey under vacuum conditions. This pilot vacuum dryer can be used for processing small volumes of honey directly at apiaries.
- Drying rate up to 1% per hour! (with a gradual decrease as the concentration increases)
- Large heat transfer area
- Low drying temperature thanks to the vacuum
- Easy operation and maintenance
- External forced circulation circuit for intense evaporation
A vacuum dehydrator is utilized for rapid and low-temperature drying of honey in a thin layer under vacuum conditions. The application of a vacuum reduces the boiling point of water: the deeper the vacuum, the lower the boiling point.
Vacuum drying is not limited to honey; it is also suitable for other thick and viscous, heat-sensitive products that might undergo structural changes or collapse at elevated temperatures.
Advantages:
- Fast drying. Due to the external circulation circuit with a pump, the product moves cyclically within the system, which increases the intensity of water evaporation.
- Drying honey in a thin layer: the product is fed from above into the working chamber under a vacuum, where through a special system it spreads out in thin layers along the walls of the container.
- Large heat transfer area due to the open “jacket†system with a vacuum container immersed inside.
- Built-in heating system with thermostats for heating the coolant; the boiling point of water inside the honey depends on the depth of the vacuum; it is not recommended to heat honey to temperatures above 39 degrees!
Basic version
It consists of a working vacuum vessel with a “jacketâ€, a built-in heating system, a circulation system pump, and a vacuum generator. A special feature of the dryer is the special disk located in the upper part of the working chamber, which allows the honey to spread out in a thin layer through some special spiral holes that divide the flow of honey into thin streams, thereby creating a large drying area for the flowing honey.
Technical requirements
For proper operation of the installation, it is necessary to connect a source of compressed air with a pressure of 6-10 Bar to the vacuum generator

A vacuum deaerator is extensively used in the food industry to remove gases from products that may retain some bubbles post-processing. Additionally, a flow deaerator is utilized to minimize foaming in products, ensuring a denser structure, especially prior to packaging. Vacuum deaerators play a crucial role in eliminating specific odors from the products, such as in the production of juices, purees, and herbal drinks. This process significantly contributes to enhancing the overall quality and taste of the final product.

The peculiarity of this unit is the combination of several functions: homogenization and drying of honey. The vertical vacuum dryer allows you to dry honey weighing up to 3300 kg in a short time while preserving its useful properties, color, taste, and organoleptic qualities. The vacuum honey dryer has a number of significant advantages over classic atmospheric honey dryers due to the reduction of processing time and the preservation of its beneficial properties, which is achieved by drying at a lower temperature.
- The drying process occurs much faster due to the evaporation of moisture under vacuum.
- High degree of homogenization of honey due to the operation of a special mixing device.

The unique feature of this vacuum honey evaporator model, distinguishing it from a honey dryer, is its ability to create a deep vacuum with a residual pressure of up to 0.08 Bar during processing! This innovative unit not only allows for quick and efficient drying of honey but also enables the immediate evaporation of water, producing a semi-finished product suitable for the subsequent production of «dry honey» or powdered honey.
- There is no need to have a large drying surface – an evaporation mirror.
- There is no need to install a mixing device for thick and viscous products.
- Low evaporation temperature of moisture – water from honey, at which its quality and medicinal properties are not compromised, and the risk of HMF growth is reduced to almost zero.
- Fast and efficient dehydration of honey at a low processing temperature.
