C series
The Alfa Laval C series is specially developed to give dairies an ideal solution for cold milk skimming. Milk is more viscous at lower temperatures, which puts higher demands on separation performance. With Alfa Laval’s unique Hermetic Design™ for cold milk separators, superior skimming efficiency is achieved without compromising the cream quality. The C series of cold milk separators therefore set the industry standard for cold milk skimming.
Experience the benefits of C series, true hermetic technology for cold milk skimming
- Only Alfa Laval’s Hermetic Design™ can deliver a premium result with high cream concentrations at low temperatures
- The bottom-fed design reduces shear forces for gentle product treatment that preserves the size of the fat globules
- Hermetic seals on inlet and outlet prevent oxidation and reduce the foaming of the milk
- Easy adaptation to process conditions provides increased production flexibility and efficient CIP
- Energy savings of up to 60% thanks to the Hermetic Design™, reaching up to 75% when combined with eMotion™
The Alfa Laval C series of cold milk separators is carefully designed to ensure long run times without heating up your milk. It is suitable for applications such as butter and spread processing, as well as milk and cream processing.
Why does the C Series set the industry standard for cold milk skimming?
Hermetic Design ™
Due to the viscosity and characteristics of cream at lower temperatures, hermetic separation is the only feasible solution in cold milk skimming. Only Alfa Laval’s unique bottom-fed concept provides true hermetic separation performance with increased flexibility to adjust to varying process conditions. By maintaining the size of fat globules and preventing milk foaming, they guarantee consistent milk standardization and exceptional product quality. The airtight bowl enhances fluid dynamics, reducing power consumption by up to 60% compared to non-hermetic alternatives, making it a highly efficient and sustainable choice for dairy processing.
eMotion™
Alfa Laval’s innovative eMotion™ technology prevents excessive heating of the product, while minimizing the separator’s environmental footprint. High-grade, corrosion-resistant stainless steel is used for our C series cold milk separators to meet the highest hygienic standards with low total cost of ownership over a long equipment lifecycle. By creating a near-vacuum around the separator bowl, eMotion™ reduces air friction enough to improve energy efficiency with up to 75% when combined with Hermetic Design™. The additional benefits of eMotion™ include reduced noise levels, lower cooling requirements, and improved cleanability.
eDrive™
The Alfa Laval eDrive™ direct drive system provides an energy-efficient separator drive that has fewer moving parts compared to traditional gear- or belt-drive systems. Unlike most gear-drive systems with up to three shafts, the eDrive™ direct-drive motor has just one shaft. That translates into highly robust operation, more uptime, longer intervals between service, better energy efficiency, and reduced costs.
UniDisc™
The Alfa Laval UniDisc™ boosts separation capacity by up to 30% with a hygienic, easy-to-clean design. Its built-in spacers allow more discs per stack, increasing surface area and enhancing performance or flow capacity.
Saving energy, cutting costs
Alfa Laval separators with Hermetic Design™ are the most energy-efficient on the market. When our unique eMotion™ technology is added, minimized air friction brings additional power reduction. Combined, our unique design and technologies can deliver up to 75% energy reduction compared to non-hermetic alternatives on the market.
Cutting back on water use
Alfa Laval dairy separators are self-cleaning. Thanks to Hermetic Design™ and our innovative UniDisc™ disc stack, cleaning is faster and uses less water and CIP liquid than traditional separators. Additional water savings can be made with eMotion™. By removing air around the separator bowl, eMotion™ reduces friction. Cutting the amount of water needed to cool the separator during operation.
