Description
A tubular pasteurizer pasteurizes milk continuously in-line: the product flows through stainless steel multi-tube heat exchangers, is preheated to 50–60 °C in the lower cylinder and pasteurized at 80–90 °C in the upper one; heating is by steam. The temperature difference between the product and the heating medium is small, so the milk is heated evenly. Milberg makes tubular pasteurizers with capacities from 500 to 20,000 L/h and more, both standard and to customer specifications; they are also used for juices, beer and kvass.
Operating principle of the continuous tubular milk pasteurizer
The tubular pasteurization unit consists of a two-cylinder tubular heat exchanger with an upper and a lower heat exchanger cylinder heated by steam. Milk is pumped through milk lines connected in series with the pasteurizer cylinders: it is preheated to 50…60 °C in the lower cylinder and passes into the upper one for pasteurization at 80…90 °C. The cylinders of the Milberg tubular pasteurization unit are stainless steel multi-tube heat exchangers with a large heat exchange area, through which the product (milk) is pumped.

FAQ
What is the capacity?
From 500 to 20,000 L/h and more. We select the capacity and configuration for your line, and can build to customer specifications.
How is the tubular pasteurizer heated?
By steam. The heat exchanger cylinders are heated by steam, and the milk flows through the tubes inside.
How does a tubular pasteurizer differ from a VDP?
A VDP pasteurizes in batches in a vat of up to 1,000 L and suits cultured dairy products and small workshops. A tubular pasteurizer works continuously in-line, for dairy plants and continuous lines.
What products can be pasteurized?
Milk, as well as juices, beer, kvass and other liquid products.
How much does a tubular pasteurizer cost?
Prices start from €5,300. The final price depends on capacity and configuration. Tell us the required capacity, and we will prepare a quotation within one working day.
