DESCRIPTION The Microwave UHT /HTST unit has been developed for the rapid heating of various types of viscous, nonviscous and even nonhomogeneous products. Product temperatures up to 160°C can be reached. The product is heated in a short product tube enabling extremely rapid heating rates to be achieved. This extremely high heating rate reduces negative effects on the physical properties of the product, e.g. denaturation of proteins, vitamins and Maillard reaction. Another advantage of the microwave unit is that heating occurs throughout the volume of the product. No heated surface is needed, which prevents burning of the product. The Microwave UHT/HTST is a user friendly laboratory system for pasteurisation, sterilisation, gelatinisation and other heating processes. The FT84-12 is an add-on unit, which must be used in conjunction with an UHT Tubular system (e.g. FT74XA, FT74XTS, FT174X). These FT units are still available for independent use, but the FT84-12 cannot be operated without the UHT system. By purchasing an FT84-12, existing FT74 owners can upgrade their equipment to a full performance microwave unit at minimum cost (FT74 Plate Heat Exchanger units will need the Tubular Heat Exchanger option as well). The FT84-12 is placed in-line with the UHT system, using food quality couplings and flexible hoses, enabling the UHT heating section to be used for product preheat. The FT84-12 includes an initial precooler close to the microwave applicator, with the main cooling provided by the UHT system. The combination of the UHT (tubular) and the FT84-12 provides complete flexibility and all the advantages of both tubular and microwave heating systems.
