Cream Separators

Whey Separators RE-W

Cream separation from whey is a key process in the dairy industry. The full skimming is to recover the valuable residual fat, which remained in the whey after cheese production.
REDA separators of RE-W serie are specially designed for this purpose.
The very high rotation speed of the bowl, combined with the special design of the discs stack, asssures high grade separation efficiency of the fat globules which still remain inside the whey.
Whey inlet comes under pressure thanks to a soft inflow system that accelerates it to the separation speed without damaging the fat globules.
The wide working surface, the high centrifugal force and the expulsion extremely fast of sludges, guarantee a great skimming efficiency.
No recovery pump is after the process necessary because the skimmed milk and the cream exit under pressure.

Main features

– Completely stainless steel execution
– High-grade finishing both for wetted and external parts to ensure proper sanitization and ease of cleaning
– Automatic back pressure valve
– Automatic solids ejections electronically controlled by PLC
– Possibility to execute manual discharges
– Self-cleaning device
– FREQ-CLUTCHTM: a specially designed variable frequency drive (VFD) system provides for fast and silent start, optimization of energy consumptions and quick speed recovery after solids ejections
– Direct gear transmission or by belt (FREE BELTTM), depending on the nominal flow rates
– Oil-bath lubrication without need of external lubrication circuit
– PRSTM system: new design of solids holding space with larger volume than the past.
By this means, significantly longer production intervals were able to be achieved between the ejections, resulting in a lower number of discharges, a reduction of the discharged volume and so lower product losses during each discharge
– SOFT-SPINDLETM: vertical rotating shaft with flexible gear system that guarantees almost unlimited duration to bearings and gears
– SERVICE-FREETM: design and number of gaskets subject to wear minimized to have easy and inexpensive maintenance
– Setup for automatic washing at the end of production in a closed cycle (CIP washing)
– Electrical panel with PLC and control through HMI with colour touch screen

In option:
– Machine mounted on skid with preconnections (only for small-medium size models)
– Balance tank for independent CIP washings and/or curd fines pre-filtration
– REDA RTC automatic standardization system for cream
