Engineering Risks & FAQ - **Caution**: - **Caution**: - **Caution**: ### Q: What dairy products can be processed with this system? **A**: This system is designed for liquid dairy products including milk, cream, and dairy-based beverages. It can handle a range of viscosities and compositions, but specific product compatibility should be confirmed with the manufacturer based on your application. ### Q: What is the typical processing capacity? **A**: The processing capacity ranges from 1000 to 10000 liters per hour, depending on the model and configuration. The actual capacity for your specific needs should be verified with the manufacturer. ### Q: How does regenerative heat recovery work? **A**: Regenerative heat recovery transfers heat from the hot pasteurized product to the incoming cold product, preheating it before the main heating section. This reduces energy consumption, with heat recovery efficiency typically between 85% and 95%. ### Q: What standards apply to this equipment? **A**: The equipment references standards such as IEC 60038 for supply voltage, ASTM A240 for material grades, and IEC 60529 for IP rating. These standards are for verification purposes; compliance must be confirmed with the manufacturer. ## 6.
