Product Introduction

1. The sterilization process water is preheated in the upper tank, allowing it to quickly fill the lower tank during sterilization (<3 minutes). This results in rapid product heating and improved production efficiency.
2. After sterilization is completed, the sterilization process water can be recycled and stored in the upper tank for heat preservation, thereby conserving water resources and steam thermal energy and reducing production costs.
3. Our company’s designed steam-water mixer features efficient steam utilization and low noise levels.
4. The newly designed fluid-flow switching device employs a continuous, alternating circulation of sterilizing water—moving up, down, left, and right—ensuring no dead spots. During the sterilization phase, the temperature distribution is controlled within ±0.5℃.
5. Equipped with a negative-pressure safety device to prevent accidental human operation from creating negative pressure and ensure the equipment’s safety.
6. The entire process is controlled automatically by a PLC, and the recipe features multi-level passwords to eliminate the possibility of operator errors.
7. A chain drive inside the vessel is available as an option, making it easy to load and unload baskets and saving labor.
8. Equipped with a triple safety interlock to prevent operator errors and avoid accidents.
9. After the equipment power is restored, the program can automatically revert to its state prior to the power outage, thereby minimizing losses.

Working principle

1. Heat the hot water tank before the shift to reach the process-set temperature.
2. Place the product into the retort and close the retort door.
3. Activate the balancing device; the sterilization process water from the hot water tank is pumped into the retort until it reaches the preset liquid level.
4. A circulating pump is used to circulate the sterilization process water within the retort. Steam is injected through a steam-water mixer and enters the circulation system, where it heats up to the sterilization temperature set for the process.
5. During the sterilization phase, the circulation pump remains continuously on. When the temperature fluctuates, the steam flow is controlled by opening and closing valves to maintain a relatively stable temperature.
6. After the sterilization phase is completed, stop injecting steam into retort.
7. The sterilization process water is pumped back into the hot water tank for storage and future use in subsequent sterilization cycles; then, the balancing device is shut down.
8. Inject cooling water into the retort via the chilled water pump to cool down the product inside the vessel.

Scope of application

1. Plastic containers: PP bottles (for coconut milk, soy milk, etc.), HDPE bottles;

2. Soft packaging: aluminum foil bags, transparent bags, vacuum bags (for chicken feet, dried tofu, etc.), high-temperature cooking bags, and more;
3. Glass containers: Not recommended for use.
