1 Processing vessels

2 Terlet Processing Vessels Terlet produces process tanks and vessels with a content ranging from 50 to 50,000 litres. These tanks and vessels are used for preparation processes during which products are mixed, stirred, cooled, heated or crystallized. Terlet top driven vessels MMR Vessels MMR tank for the preparation of soups, sauces and ragouts The MMR is a heating/mixing tank that is used for soup products requiring a combination of mixing and heating operations. An optimum mix has to be attained, in which the whole pieces, such as mushrooms, paprika, meat etc., are kept intact as much as possible. The soup must be cooked without causing it to burn and stick to the side. MMR processing tank for the processing of fruit products The MMR is a heating/mixing tank that is used for fruit products requiring a combination of processing operations. Firstly, an optimum mixture has to be obtained. Secondly, the fruit pulp must be heated without causing it to burn and stick to the side. Processing tank for the dairy industry The MMR is a processing tank that is employed as a mixing tank for mixing cream, fruit or herbs into curds and soft cheese. Features and benefits Optimum mixing action, even with thin soups containing vegetable and meat pieces No damage to the product solids Good heat transfer, resulting in fast heating Fermentation tank Culture and yogurt tank To allow milk to ferment in a tank in a low-spore environment and stir effectively the inoculation after it has reached the desired acidity degree. For culture preparation it is also necessary to cool the starter so far as possible (with chilled water) and checking the virulence of the culture. Features and benefits Result of scientific research Hygienic design CIP cleaning possible

3 Terlet bottom driven vessels Vessels with bottom driven agitators Cookers and coolers: Applications used for sauce-, soup-, ready meals and pie fill production. Features and benefits cooking vessel Full access Hygienic design Split dimple pressure jacket for cooking small batches Short heating times Wall and bottom surface scraped for optimal heat transfer Special agitator for intensive mixing action resulting in a more homogeneous end product Low maintenance Less product loss No dead corners No seals or bearings in contact with product Homogenizing through optional homogenizer in one vessel In tiltable execution for viscous products CIP provisions optional Features and benefits cooling vessel Hermetically closed No contamination in cooling phase Vacuum/pressure execution Cooling with central inner cylinder which means very short cooling times No fat separation No transport pump needed CIP provisions optional

4 Crystallization tank for the production of lactose To allow the lactose in concentrated whey to crystallize, with continuous supersaturation of the lactose contained in the solution during cooling. Pre-crystallization tank for whey powder To allow the lactose in concentrated whey to crystallize, at a constant temperature for the preparation of nonhygroscopic whey powder ( non-caking whey powder). Features and benefits Optimum mixing action No damage to crystals Even cooling Maximum cooling surface resulting in large, regular crystals Hygienic design

5 Terlet horizontal vessels Horizontal vessels for the production of soups, sauces and fruit Features and benefits Optimum mixing action, even at minimum fill ratio Large heat exchanging surface No damage to the product because of the low revolving speed of the stirring mechanism Horizontal tanks for the processing of soups and sauces The horizontal cooking/mixing tanks are primarily employed in the preparation of sauces and soups in which there is a large variation in relative density. In other words, the tendency for the components to sink or float. Horizontal tanks for the processing of fruit products A horizontal tank can be used for the preparation of all kinds of fruit products. A great advantage is the very efficient mixing of products that tend to sink to the bottom or, conversely, float to the top.

7 Terlotherm Scraped surface heat exchanger

8 Why a Terlotherm scraped surface heat exchanger? Many prepared foods and other products prevent optimal heat transfer because of their consistency. For example, food containing large particles, viscous, sticky and crystalline products can quickly block or foul certain types of heat exchangers. Scraped surface heat exchangers incorporate special design features which make them ideal for heating and cooling products that impair good heat transfer. As the product is pumped through the SSHE cylinder, even temperature distribution is ensured by a rotor and blade assembly, which continually and gently blends the product, while simultaneously removing it from the heat transfer surface. The Terlotherm is a vertical scraped surface heat exchanger with two concentric heat exchange surfaces to provide optimum heat transfer. This design, together with other features, offers the following advantages:: Vertical unit, which gives a large heat exchange surface area, and gives a small foot print so valuable production floor space area, is not required. Our largest machine gives more than eight times the surface area than conventional equipment. One mechanical seal. All other types of equipment have a minimum of two seals, and require a lot of time to replace the seals. The seal in the Terlotherm can be changed very quickly. No special hydraulic system is required either as in other conventional equipment. Simple inspection of the interior of the machine via the top lid, which can be opened without tools. There is no need to disturb seals or remove shafts. For maintenance purposes the equipment is easily accessible and simple to clean. All product contacting parts are of FDA approved material. The machine is designed in such a way that the heat exchange surfaces can easily be separated in case either surface needs to be refinished or replaced. The heat exchange surfaces are not provided with potentially dangerous materials such as chromium or other materials, but are of solid high quality stainless steel, thus avoiding the danger or contamination of the product. The Terlotherm operates utilizing low pressures and low rpm s, but still maintains the same tip speeds of the scraper blades as other units that run at much higher rpm s and pressures. This is due to our unique design of the double wall cylinder. This is a key advantage when you have very sensitive or complex products that can be easily damaged with too much pressure or too high rpm s. Due to the modular building design the heat exchange capacity can be increased by replacing the cylinders instead of the complete machine. Efficient heat transfer is achieved by continuous scraping or the entire heat exchange surface. The Terlotherm has been approved with USDA, U-Stamp and ASME codes.
