FrymaKoruma Vacuum Deaerating Unit type VE

The vacuum deaerating unit for deaerating products of a liquid, semi-liquid or paste-like consistency. The unit works continuously and is usually the last station in a production line or the first in a filling line.

Key Advantages

• Prevents oxidative phenomena such as discoloration and changes to odor and flavor, especially in the case of greases and oils
• Uniform and smooth appearance of end product
• Long-term stability is increased by deaeration
• Optimally adaptable to any product
• The deaerator considerably increases the dosing accuracy of the following filling devices because deaerated products are easier and quicker to fill
• The deaerator considerably increases the specific weight of a product and reduces the packing volume
• Easy to clean and service

Functional Description
The liquid containing the air or gas pockets is distributed in a thin layer on a centrifugal disc with a sieve and then sieved into the vessel through a screening frame.

The air and gas pockets expand under vacuum, causing the bubbles to burst and the liberated pockets to be exhausted by the vacuum pump. This method removes even the most minute air pockets completely.

Substances with a high internal viscosity or sensitive emulsions can be deaerated perfectly. A discharge pump then feeds the deaerated product to the next machine in the production line.
