€0.00

Vacuum evaporator with a remote circulation type heat exchanger is one of the most efficient evaporation systems. Suitable for boiling heat-sensitive products such as milk, cream, etc.

No mixing device required, the product has forced circulation!
Modular system: possibility to choose the vacuum generator, power and heat exchanger type
Inclined design and bottom valve for 100% product discharge without losses and blind spots
Insulated upper hatch of the unit for heat retention and safety
Tangential product inlet into the vacuum vessel for guaranteed evaporation in a thin layer

Vacuum evaporation units are used when it is necessary to evaporate liquids at low temperatures, or at a temperature that is comparatively lower than the boiling point of the product at atmospheric pressure. Most often, this is used to evaporate water from heat-sensitive products. Such units are widely used in the food industry, for example, when condensing milk, cream, and producing condensed milk with sugar.

The vacuum evaporator with circulation is used for concentrating a wide range of liquid products, such as:

milk	cream	syrups	herbal infusions
whey	juices	tinctures	extracts

Advantages

Highly efficient and fast evaporation of water from the product due to the circulating function of the vacuum evaporation unit with a heat exchanger in an external circuit.
Possibility of choosing a thermal transfer medium for the heat exchanger (water/steam), as well as the type of heat exchanger (shell and tube / plate).
Due to the powerful condenser and vacuum generator, the system is capable of achieving a deep vacuum, where the boiling point is 59°C. If it is necessary to achieve a boiling point below 59 degrees, it is possible to equip the unit with a special vacuum oil pump, which allows, together with the condenser, to achieve a value of 20 mBar (17°C) - optional.
The bottom valve installed at the lowest hydraulic point of the vacuum reactor, guarantees product processing without blind zones and losses, which is a mandatory requirement for recipes in some industries with precise dosing of components.
The inclined design of the working vacuum vessel does not require a conical bottom, since the slope allows 100% accumulation of the product directly at the lowest hydraulic point, where the bottom valve is installed!
The secondary steam removal and condensation system is equipped with a special trap to reduce the likelihood of product carryover into the condenser.
Included in the basic version, a two-layer upper hatch with an air gap is installed to reduce heat loss and parasitic condensation.
No mixing device is required; the product pump in the forced circulation circuit constantly mixes the product and intensively heats it in the flow, pumping it through the heat exchanger!
Due to the continuous flow heating of the product, the possibility of local overheating is reduced.

Basic version

The vacuum evaporation unit comprises a single-layer inclined vacuum vessel on a supporting structure, equipped with an external circulation circuit with a product pump and a heat exchanger, a vacuum generation system - an ejector for compressed air, a system for collecting and removing secondary steam. Controls depend on the type and required automation parameters.

Operating principle

Due to the circulation of the product through the heat exchanger, the product is heated in the flow, and upon entering the vacuum tank, the water contained within it almost immediately turns into steam and is removed through the condensate collection and removal system.

Technical requirements

Having a source of compressed air with a pressure of 6-10 bar and a volume of 250-300 l/min - for the vacuum generator
Source of ice water with a temperature of 5-7 degrees - to supply the coolant to the condenser of the vacuum evaporation unit

Options

Mixing device for thick and viscous products
Scrapers for the mixing device
Heating/cooling jacket to expand the possible applications of the vacuum evaporation unit, allowing for subsequent cooling of the product after boiling/concentration
External decorative housing for the unit with insulation
Vacuum generator in the form of a vacuum water ring/oil pump
Optional power options and type of heat exchanger
CIP heads for cleaning (rotary), allowing the unit to be connected to a Clean-In-Place station
Quiet compressor - a source of compressed air for the ejector as a vacuum generator
