In milk tanks, the temperature must be maintained between 1°C and 4°C.

 

Keeping milk at this temperature is extremely important to preserve its freshness and prevent bacterial growth, thus ensuring the quality and safety of the final product. This temperature range helps to maintain the product in optimal conditions during storage and transportation, complying with dairy industry standards. 

 

Optimize the pasteurization process

Pasteurization is essential to eliminate pathogens and ensure product safety. IDNEXT controls ensure that the pasteurization process is performed at precise temperatures, optimizing efficiency and guaranteeing milk quality. By providing accurate data and continuous monitoring, IDNEXT helps maintain compliance with food safety standards and improves operational management. 

Here is a summary of the advantages of using Eliwell IDNext controls in milk cooling tanks and dairy plants:

Eliwel electronic control: Advantages for milk cooling tanks

IDNext controls significantly reduce energy consumption thanks to their advanced algorithms. Energy efficiency not only reduces operating costs, but also contributes to environmental sustainability. 

In addition, it maintains the temperature with exceptional precision, preventing product losses.

And above all, ease of use: IDNext controls have an intuitive interface, which saves staff time and resources.

And finally, these controls adapt to different systems and applications, and integrate into larger systems as business needs grow. 

How Eliwell Controls Optimize Cooling:

In the dairy refrigeration equipment industry, several types of electronic controls are used to ensure optimal operation and safety of the systems. Some of these controls include: 

Electronic pressure controllers: These replace traditional mechanical "pressure switches". Electronic controllers offer greater reliability, simplify maintenance and allow precise pressure adjustments. They are also easier to configure than mechanical pressure switches. 

Electronic temperature controllers: These regulate the temperature in refrigeration systems. They can adjust the speed of compressors, condensers and fans, as well as control evaporators with electronic expansion valves. 

Dairy coolers: These devices make a difference in controlling heat during milk processing and storage. They prevent milk spoilage due to excessive heat or insufficient pasteurization. 

We are grateful for the trust and collaboration of Lactomilk, a company with more than 15 years of experience in the production and marketing of dairy machinery for dairies and dairy processing plants. They have provided us with graphic material for the realization of this post. 

About IDNEXT: the new generation of refrigeration controls

Here is a summary of the technical points of IDNext:

More about the new generation of refrigeration controls:

• IDNext is suitable for use in appliances equipped with flammable refrigerants as it complies with IEC 6035-2-89.
• IDNext is compatible with most variable speed compressor models available on the market. The auto-tuning function allows for easy configuration of the control. 
• The power supply for ECM fans and LED lights requires high peak current control. Models designed for this are available in the IDNext range. 
• IDNext features a new additional desiccant algorithm that improves defrost performance and allows existing chillers to be upgraded without any hardware changes.
• IDNext through the BT dongle allows a new and simple interface of the control with your cell phone. The control has to be connected to the Eliwell BTLE accessory. 
• The IDNext user manual is now available online, accessible anytime you need it. Use the MyEliwell app to access the manual directly. 
• Eliwell's AIR application through Eliwell BLTE allows using the cell phone to interact with the control for both monitoring and commissioning.
• IDNext is Green Premium, Schneider Electric's eco-mark that certifies that the product complies with; RoHS Directive and REACH regulation Product Environment Profile End of Life Instructions (EoLI).
