Used Alfa Laval Flexitherm mini flash pasteuriser 15 HL-HTechnical
Specifications & Performance DataThe Flexitherm Mini is a compact
flash pasteurizer module engineered for precise thermal treatment of
beverages within an industrial packaging environment. Manufactured by
Alfa Laval in 2021, this skid-mounted system combines efficient heat
exchange with automated control to stabilize product quality before
filling. Optimized for small to mid-scale beverage production, it
offers a reliable solution for breweries and beverage processors
seeking second hand or never-used equipment that integrates easily
into a used bottling line.Manufacturer: Alfa LavalModel: Flexitherm
MiniYear: 2021Pasteurization Type: FlashCapacity: 5–15 hl/hMain skid
dimensions (L×W×H): 2800 mm × 2000 mm × 2300 mmIncluded
components: Main skid with integrated control panel, external pump,
and buffer tank (~20 hl, approx. 1200 mm diameter × 3500 mm
height)Advanced Automation & Control SystemsThe integrated control
panel provides centralized, user-friendly operation for temperature
profiles, holding times, flow, and alarms. The automated control
strategy helps maintain consistent pasteurization units with accurate
heat balance and stable setpoints. Operator guidance, trending, and
recipe handling support repeatable results across batches. Protective
interlocks and alarm logic help safeguard the process and equipment
during start-up, operation, and CIP.Production Line Integration
CapabilitiesThis flash pasteurizer integrates upstream with storage or
bright tanks and downstream with filling, labeling, and capping on a
complete bottling or canning line. Its compact footprint simplifies
retrofit projects in beverage production facilities and can be
deployed as a standalone thermal treatment skid or integrated with
existing CIP systems and factory automation. Suitable for PET and
glass bottle workflows as well as canning operations, it supports
flexible beverage production configurations.Machine Condition &
Maintenance HistoryThe unit was assembled and tested, but never used
in production. It is in pristine condition with full technical
documentation and the original invoice available. Its preserved state
and comprehensive paperwork streamline commissioning and validation
for immediate deployment in a second hand or refurbished used bottling
line.Operational Performance & VersatilityDesigned to deliver stable
flash pasteurization performance, the Flexitherm Mini provides
consistent product heating, precise holding, and effective
regeneration for energy efficiency. The included buffer tank enhances
line stability during filler stops and restarts, reducing product
losses. Its compact design is well-suited for beverage production
environments focused on quality assurance, microbiological stability,
and efficient changeovers.Installation Requirements & Site
PreparationThe skid-mounted layout simplifies placement and
connection, minimizing on-site assembly. Plan for suitable floor space
based on the listed dimensions and allow service access for valves,
instrumentation, and heat exchangers. Utilities typically include
electrical power, process water, product in/out connections, CIP
interfaces, and a heat source (steam or hot water) per site standards.
Proper drainage and ventilation around the skid are recommended for
safe operation and maintenance.Safety Standards & Compliance
CertificationThe system features hygienic design practices consistent
with food and beverage production, with sanitary piping and components
to support clean-in-place procedures. Operator protections include
emergency stop access and alarm handling through the control panel.
The machine’s design supports compliance with industrial safety and
hygiene expectations for beverage processing lines, facilitating
integration into quality-managed production environments.
