Separation technology manufacturer Flottweg has launched its new Z5E-4/401 decanter with hygienic design for the safe processing of foods.
The model features superior cleanability and increased strength due to its stainless steel components; an adjustable impeller that guarantees optimum adjustment to changing conditions in the product feed; and a unique touch control, Flottweg said.
The machine results in perfect separating properties; exact, variable adjustment of the pond depth; impeller adjustability during active processing; optimum adaptation to changed conditions; and improved cleaning ability of the machine, the Bavaria-based company added.
The Z5E is particularly engineered towards the separation of coagulated proteins, the manufacture of soy beverages and starch, and the clarification of fruit juices.
And, as a brand spokesperson explained, the entire mechanism is underpinned by a responsive operating system: “The Flottweg touch control isn’t just an operating element of the machine’s control system, but can also be extended to become a complete system controller. The Flottweg touch control is characterised by very intuitive menu guidance that makes operation easier for the user of the machine. The different variants are designed for the harshest of conditions. Temperature variations between -20 and +70 degrees Celsius, aggressive atmospheres, or even protection classes up to IP67 are no problem for this panel. High-resolution graphics on a 12″ screen round the whole thing off. Visitors to Flottweg at Achema 2015 will be able to experience the operation of a decanter centrifuge using the Flottweg touch control and experience its user friendliness for themselves.”
