Embodiment Construction

[0008] Preferably, the negative pressure is adjusted in response to a pressure difference measured between the outlet of the primary circuit and the feed pipe of the secondary circuit. In the remaining area of ​​the heat exchanger, then at least this positive pressure gradient prevails between the primary and secondary circuits. The differential pressure can be monitored in a simple manner with conventional pressure gauges and control units.

[0009] Preferably, the returning exchange medium is collected in a vacuum tank. The exchange medium can then be temporarily stored under vacuum. The vacuum tank then acts as a system separation for the exchange medium conducted or collected under vacuum conditions from ambient pressure.

[0010] Preferably, the pressure of the vacuum tank is adjusted so that negative pressure prevails at the feed side of the secondary loop. Due to the return pipe of the secondary circuit, a positive pressure gradient from the primary circuit to the se...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device for the thermal treatment of a product. The invention describes a method for observing a positive pressure gradient between a main loop for guiding the product and an auxiliary loop for guiding heat exchange medium in a heat exchanger, and a corresponding treating device. According to the method, through applying a negative pressure to a reflux pipe of the auxiliary loop, the positive pressure gradient is generated. Therefore, a cross section reducing facility of the main loop can be prevented. Thereby the products comprising fruit slice can be treated with a specifically moderate manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of heat treatment of a product according to the preceding claim 1 and a device for the treatment of the product according to the invention. Background technique [0002] As is generally known, heat exchangers are used in the heat treatment of liquid products, such as flash pasteurization of beverages. Here, the product passes through a primary circuit of heat exchangers and is heated (typically heated water flows through a separate secondary circuit) by a heat exchange medium, or cooled. Furthermore, in order to reliably avoid contamination of the secondary circuit by undesired products in the event of a leak, a so-called positive pressure gradient from the primary circuit to the secondary circuit is produced. This is done by means of an overpressure in the main circuit, which is then eg 4 bar at the inlet of the main circuit and 3 bar at the outlet of the main circuit. The pressure prevailing in the feed pip...
