Cleaning & service
Include the lid, vacuum take-off and foam-contact areas in the cleaning inspection; protect the vacuum service from product carryover.
Equipment / Batch
Vacuum mixing / deaeration module
Address entrained air when the sauce and filling requirements justify vacuum processing.
Construction and product duty
A vacuum-rated vessel, controlled vacuum circuit, foam management and product-compatible mixing form the module.
- Input
- Sauce with measurable air incorporation or foaming behaviour.
- Output
- A conditioned sauce with its air-content target checked.
What changes the selection
Evaluate volatility, foam rise and viscosity with samples. Deaeration can change apparent density, so the filler basis must follow the conditioned product.
Optional rather than a universal step. Vacuum mixing does not establish microbial safety or an oxygen-free shelf life.
Specification basis
| Parameter group | Information to establish |
|---|---|
| Air target | Method and acceptance criterion |
| Foam behaviour | Working level and carryover control |
| Service | Vacuum system and product-contact boundary |
No numerical rating or model is assigned without a configuration-specific record. Ask for the drawing, wetted materials and operating conditions with the proposal.
Installation interfaces
Coordinate vacuum supply, condensate handling, product temperature and transfer to the filler without re-entraining air.
Trial & acceptance
Measure foam control, density change, product loss and filling consistency.
