SUGAR MELTER
Sugar melting is a common process in Refineries, Cane & Beet Sugar Factories where the melt has to be produced at constant specified brix and temperature.

SED MELTER Overview

Controlled brix, temperature & optimum retention time using minimum Power, Steam & Water ensures the consistency of the melt quality.

Looking in to the operational difficulties like use of exhaust / live steam, water and poor control of temperature & brix in conventional melters, SED introduces an energy efficient design for sugar melting system.

DISTINCTIVE FEATURES:

Highly Competitive Operation:
  • Operation under vacuum / low pressure.
  • Accurate brix and temperature controlling.
  • No use of live steam / exhaust steam.
  • Melting by syrup / water.
  • Variable retention time possible.

Exclusive Design:
  • Stainless steel horizontal cylindrical vessel having capability to handle melt up to 70-71Brix.
  • Horizontal stirrer with paddles ensures no short-circuiting & undissolved crystals, hence giving an efficient plug flow system.

  • Optimized Paddle Angle for agitation leaving no dead pockets.
  • Compact and highly efficient shaft mounted planetary drive require no supporting structure or civil work for drive gear.
  • Specially designed sealing system to work under sub-atmospheric pressure.
  • Sight glass indication for level and shaft movement.

Melting medium:
  • Use of syrup as melting medium.
  • Least water addition, if needed.
  • Use of water as melting medium (optional).

Low steam consumption:
  • Utilization of low temperature vapours of 70-80°C in vacuum.
  • Reduced steam consumption due to melting with syrup instead of water.

Minimal power consumption:
  • Possibility to avoid magma pump by vacuum sucking, if located nearby.
  • Efficient in- line planetary drive consuming less power.

Automated control:
  • The flow of melt, syrup and hot water can be put on automation to achieve controlled output brix & temperature (optional).
  • Brix Sensors, with Microwave Sensing Technology ensure constant brix of melt.
  • Auto-alarming indication for level fluctuation.
