Tailor made gas mixers for protective gas atmospheres in the food and beverages industry
To prevent loss of natural freshness and quality, food are often packaged in a protective atmosphere (Modified Atmosphere Packaging – MAP). Using natural gas the quality is maintained and the durability is improved. For this different gas mixtures are needed which can be produced in LT’s gas mixers. I.e..:
- Raw red meat or raw dark poultry:
O2 and CO2 (Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide) - Raw white meat, cooked meat or sausages:
CO2 and N2 (Carbon Dioxide and Nitrogen) - Raw Fisch:
CO2, O2 and N2 (Carbon Dioxide , Oxygen and Nitrogen) - Smoked fish, boiled fish, crab/shrimp
CO2 and N2 (Carbon Dioxide and Nitrogen) - Hard cheese, soft cheese, yoghurt
CO2 and N2 (Carbon Dioxide and Nitrogen) - Vegetables, salads
O2, CO2 and N2 (Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide and Nitrogen) - Beer, Champagne, Sparkling Wines
CO2 and N2 (Carbon Dioxide and Nitrogen)
LT GASETECHNIK’s serial gas mixers for two or three gases for the food industry have a capacity of a few liter per minute (l/min, slm or slpm) to 500 cubic meters per hour (m³/h or scm/h). They are optionally available
- with or without a buffer vessel
- with or without gas analyzer
- as static gas mixer with manual control or
- as dynamic gas mixer with fully automatic control with MFC (Mass-Flow-Controller)
Dynamic gas mixers typically display process data, alarms and error messages on a local operator panel and, if desired, are passed to the process control system of the customer.
