World Premiere Tetra Alex 350 Homogenizer
Tetra Pak now introduces a new homogenizer, the Tetra Alex 350 for beverage and dairy products. This machine follows the same proven design concept as the Tetra Alex 400 machine introduced a few years ago.
The Tetra Alex 350 has an impressive capacity range, handling flow rates up to 9000 gph and pressures up to 5800 psi. This machine can be designed to meet your processing needs as either a high pressure pump or a homogenizer.
Setting the standards
Tetra Pak continues to set the standards on how to design and build homogenizers. The new Tetra Alex 350 is a 5-piston positive displacement pump using a solid pump block. The machine includes a wet end, containing only the components with product contact, and drive end which are separated by a stainless steel wall. Tetra Alex 350 is equipped with the energy efficient HD100 homogenisation device. This device is designed to offer considerable improvements in homogenization efficiency when compared to a conventional device. It utilizes fully reversible seats and forcers which further improves the operational economy.
Meet the needs
As processors continue to be pushed to develop more products, the demands on the processing equipment also increase. The Tetra Alex 350, as well as all Tetra Alex homogenizers, is designed to better withstand these needs. For abrasive applications, Tetra Pak can supply alternative materials for our valves, pistons, seals and homogenization device to improve the longevity of the components. The Tetra Alex line of homogenizers offer several different levels of automation to meet the specific needs of your plant.
World premiere
The Tetra Alex 350 homogenizer was showcased at the World Wide Food Expo in Chicago, October 26-29.
