HLM-36ELB - Retort Cooker

Features & Functions

Pressure control method
High temperature and high pressure sterilization is performed by gradually raising the chamber temperature and pressure. This is effective for preventing damage to aluminum packs or film packs for retort foods.

A cooling device that can prevent damage to containers
Cooling water is sprayed while pressurizing the chamber with air in order to prevent rapid pressure change due to sudden condensation of vapor in the chamber during shower cooling. The seal portion of a bottle or container is prevented from being damaged.

Automatic operation
All stages from water supply, pressurization, sterilization (disinfection) to cooling are performed automatically. 

Compact body made of stainless steel
A stainless steel body that is clean and excellent in corrosion resistance is used. Sapce-saving compact autoclave.

Equipped with external output terminal as standard
As a printer output connector is equipped as standard, it is easy to output data.

Electro-mechanical lid lock system
The electric clamp lid is employed. locking / unlocking of the lid can be performed simply by pressing a button. The chamber opening is widely opened for easy loading and unloading.

Dual interlock mechanism
The lid is locked by detecting chamber pressure and temperature during sterilization. Even if an operation is interrupted manually, the lock state is maintained.

Sufficient treatment capacity (Loading capacity)

Programmable auto - start function
An operation starts at the set time.

Memory function
Set contents can be registered for each mode.

Recommended for food production in small lots
Useful for new entry into a new business. 
Manufactuering the original food products of local specialty.
Food development and sample food production in a food manufacturer.
Processing and cooking of surplus food materials.
Manufacturing preservation foods.

Installation requirements are minimal and maintenance cost is low
It can be installed simply by providing power source and water supply / drainage. See the following installation requirements. Qualification for handling boilers or pressure vessels is unnecessary. (It is necessary for users to inspect it once per year.)

Operation Cycle of Each Mode

MODE1: Sterilization       (Natural cooling)		Automatic water supply		Heating		Sterilization		Natural cooling		Warming
Main applications: Sterilization of glass, ceramic and metal instruments that can withstand high temperature and high pressure steam
MODE 2: Sterilization        (Shower cooling)		Automatic water supply		Heating		Sterilization		Shower cooling		Drainage
Main applications: Sterilization of glass, ceramic and metal instruments that can withstand high temperature and high pressure steam Sterilization of aluminum packs or film packs (without pressure control)
MODE 3: Sterilization        (Shower cooling)		Automatic water supply		Heating Pressurization		Sterilization (Pressure cooking)		Shower cooling		Drainage
Main applications: Sterilization of aluminum packs or film packs (with pressure control)

Options for Upgrading a System

Floating sensor (unretrofittable)	Printer
A sterilization timer operates after the temperature of the materials to be sterilzed reaches the set temperature.	Data collection (Thermal recording type)

Option

Stainless steel round wire basket	Sterilization bucket, stainless steel	Tray, stainless steel
φ330 x H195 mm φ330 x H270 mm	φ330 x H270 mm	[Tray 38] φ320 x H38 mm [Tray 48] φ320 x H48 mm

Sterilization tape, Sterilization label, Sterilization bag
Sterilization tape: Clear color change makes it easy to identify exposure to sterilization process. Sterilization label: Paste directly on the object to be sterilized, you can check the sterilization treatment. After sterilization, the letters "sterilized" appear and it can be easily distinguished from untreated materials. Sterilization bag: There are sterilization bags that are made of paper, roll type or one seal back type. Most of them are heat seal type, but tape seal type and aluminum plate seal type can be also available. Ask us for prices and more details.
