FAQ · English
Frequently asked questions — industrial homogenizer
What pressure range do MCF homogenizers cover?
Standard duty is 150–400 bar for dairy and beverage applications. Heavy-duty and R&D units reach 1000–1500 bar for fine emulsions, plant-based drinks and cosmetic applications. Flow rates from 500 to 40,000 L/h.
Where does the homogenizer sit in a UHT dairy line?
In indirect UHT, the homogenizer is placed downstream of the first heater at ~70–75 °C, upstream of the final heating and holding section. Direct UHT places it downstream of the flash cooler for aseptic homogenization.
Do you supply aseptic homogenizers for shelf-stable products?
Yes — MCF configures aseptic homogenizers with SIP-capable heads, sterile barriers and steam-blocked valves for the aseptic loop of UHT milk, juice and plant beverage lines.
Can I retrofit an MCF homogenizer into an existing line?
Retrofits are one of our specialities. We survey the existing skid, size a compatible model, engineer piping, utilities and controls integration and complete on-site installation and commissioning worldwide.
