Milk Cooling Tank 

Description

The milk cooling tank is also called milk direct-cooled storage tank or low-temperature refrigerated fresh milk tank, a milk cooling tank is a type of equipment used to cool and store milk to prevent bacteria from multiplying in milk collection stations, milk farms, dairy factories, and dairy cattle professional households or in a milk processing plant. The tank is designed to maintain the quality and freshness of the milk by cooling it quickly and efficiently after milking. Here are some common characteristics of a milk cooling tank:

  1. Stainless steel construction: Milk cooling tanks are typically made from high-quality stainless steel, which is durable, hygienic, and easy to clean.
  2. Insulated design: The tank is insulated to minimize heat transfer and to maintain the temperature of the milk.
  3. Cooling system: The tank has a cooling system that cools the milk quickly and efficiently, typically using refrigeration or a heat exchange system.
  4. Agitation system: The tank has an agitation system that keeps the milk moving, which helps to prevent the formation of cream or sediment.
  5. Temperature control: The tank has a temperature control system that monitors and regulates the temperature of the milk, ensuring that it is stored at the optimal temperature.
  6. Capacity: Milk cooling tanks are available in a range of sizes, from small tanks for on-farm use to large tanks for commercial processing plants.
  7. Easy to use: Milk cooling tanks are designed for easy operation, with simple controls and a user-friendly interface.
  8. Milk cooling tanks are essential for maintaining the quality and freshness of milk, and they are widely used in the dairy industry to store and cool milk after milking. They are available in a range of sizes and configurations to meet the needs of different farms and processing plants.

Application

A milk cooling tank is used to rapidly cool and store milk at a consistent temperature after it is collected from cows or other milk-producing animals. The tank is an essential part of the milk collection and processing system, and plays a crucial role in maintaining the quality and safety of the milk.

Preservation of Milk Quality: The primary purpose of milk cooling tanks is to preserve the quality of raw milk. Rapid cooling helps prevent bacterial growth and enzymatic activities that can lead to spoilage, ensuring that the milk retains its freshness and nutritional value.

Extended Shelf Life: Efficient cooling of milk at the farm level contributes to an extended shelf life of the milk. This is important for both on-farm storage and subsequent transportation to processing facilities.

On-Farm Milk Storage: Milk cooling tanks provide on-farm storage capabilities, allowing dairy farmers to store milk temporarily before it is transported to dairy processing plants. This is especially important when milk is collected intermittently or when transportation logistics require a delay.

Capacity for Bulk Milk Collection: Larger milk cooling tanks are used in dairy farms with higher milk production volumes. These tanks facilitate the collection and storage of bulk quantities of milk before transportation

Milk cooling tank

Feature

  1. Structure: vertical, horizontal type.
  2. Capacity: 500L-10000L, the efficiency of insulation≤1℃/4h, Stirring speed:33-36rpm, Refrigerant:R22.
  3. The tank body is made of SUS304 stainless steel, high-precision polishing, in line with the requirements of the new version of GMP, clean, hygienic, beautiful, easy to clean, and durable.
  4. The tank is equipped with an automatic stirring device and a pressurized automatic rotating CIP cleaning head.
  5. The insulation layer adopts 60-80mm polyurethane foaming process, which has high strength, light specific gravity, compact structure and good cold insulation performance.
  6. The advanced computer temperature controller is used to automatically control the temperature of the refrigeration system. The mixing time can be set according to user requirements, with automatic start and stop or manual start and stop.
  7. It adopts Copeland compressor imported from the United States or a well-known domestic brand, equipped with a reliable midpoint guard, which will not burn out the motor due to overload or system failure, with high cooling effect, stable performance and low noise.
  8. The tank wall uses advanced dimple pad as an evaporator to exchange the heat with milk directly and cool it.
  9. Milk direct cooling storage tanks are mainly composed of stainless steel tank body, mixing/stirring device, refrigeration unit, electrical control system, and equipment platform.
  10. The compressor uses imported Tecumseh or Maneurop brand, the expansion valve use TEX or Danfoss brand.
