Flour Cooling System
Flour cooling is required in automated operations to maintain a uniform temperature of the dough and avoid the addition of the ice. The Flour Cooling System allows to cool the flour dispensed from silos, as well as regulating the temperature by programming a set point. The flour is mixed with cold air in an intermediate hopper located in between the flour silos and the flour dispensing station. The cold air is generated by a heat exchanger and continuously circulates in the bin via a high pressure fan and a fluidizing bed. The air is perfectly homogenized with the flour to give a uniform temperature. A temperature probe monitors the temperature of the flour and control the heat exchanger till the set point of the temperature. Throughput from 1 to 2 t/h per unit. Cooling up to 16° from the initial temperature (Δ T 16°C). The bin is insulated and jacketed to guarantee optimum cooling and prevent condensation.
