A 5000-liter bulk milk cooler is a large-capacity refrigeration unit designed to store and cool large volumes of raw milk from dairy farms. It plays a crucial role in maintaining milk quality and safety before it is transported to processing plants.
Key features and specifications:
- Capacity: 5000 liters
- Construction: Typically made of stainless steel for durability and hygiene
- Insulation: High-density polyurethane foam for excellent insulation
- Refrigeration system: Hermetic compressor for efficient cooling
- Agitator: Ensures uniform cooling and prevents milk from forming a skin on the surface
- Temperature control: Digital thermostat for precise temperature maintenance
- Cleaning system: Often includes a cleaning-in-place (CIP) system for easy and thorough cleaning
Benefits of using a 5000-liter bulk milk cooler:
- Improved milk quality: Maintains milk at a low temperature (around 4°C), preserving its freshness, nutritional value, and organoleptic properties.
- Increased milk production: Allows farmers to store larger quantities of milk, which is beneficial during peak milking seasons or infrequent transportation to processing plants.
- Enhanced farm hygiene: Promotes hygienic milk handling practices on the farm.
- Reduced energy consumption: Modern bulk milk coolers are energy-efficient, reducing operating costs.
- Improved farm income: High-quality milk allows farmers to command better prices from dairy processors.
Typical users of 5000-liter bulk milk coolers:
- Large-scale dairy farms
- Milk cooperatives
- Dairy processing plants
