Heat treatment
Direct Steam Injection Module
A small unit for comparing direct steam heating with heating through a tube or plate.
How the equipment works
Food-grade steam heats the liquid quickly by entering it directly. The documented setup pairs steam heating with vacuum cooling and tracks temperature, pressure, and flow.
The module can connect to a UHT or HTST test line. Steam quality, water added as the steam condenses, cooling and sampling all affect the test.
Teams can test dairy, plant-based drinks and other drink recipes. The recipe and setup determine the settings, site connections and cleaning needs.
