A series
Alfa Laval’s comprehensive range of separators for the dairy industry includes our unique technology for anhydrous milk fat production (AMF). The A Series of hermetic separators provide an efficient, reliable and cost-effective separation solution.
Advanced technology for anhydrous milk fat processes
- Alfa Laval’s unique, bottom-fed, Hermetic Design™ provides premium oil purification efficiency for maintaining a high product quality
- The bottom-fed design reduces shear forces for gentle product treatment with a minimum level of emulsification
- Hermetic seals on inlet and outlet prevent oxidation
- Easy adaptation to process conditions provides increased production flexibility and efficient CIP
- Energy savings of up to 60% thanks to the Hermetic Design
Achieving high product quality in anhydrous milk fat processing
Purification of anhydrous milk fat, or butteroil, is a niche application within dairy processing where our technology brings value to the process. In addition to preventing oxygen pick-up and preserving product quality, our unique, bottom-fed Hermetic Design™ gives you high separation efficiency, low energy consumption and superior process flexibility.
The Alfa Laval A Series separators are expertly designed for processing anhydrous milk fat, making them ideal for butter and spread production.
Saving energy, cutting costs
Alfa Laval separators with Hermetic Design are the most energy-efficient on the market. When our unique eMotion technology is added, minimized air friction brings additional power reduction. Combined, our unique design and technologies can deliver up to 70% energy reduction compared to non-hermetic alternatives on the market.
Sustainable is our standard
Alfa Laval wants to help dairy producers make optimal use of every resource in their process. That’s why we build high-efficiency dairy separators that prevent product waste while consuming less energy and water, thanks to unique innovations. Letting you deliver top-quality products that leave a smaller environmental footprint.
Features that make the difference
What sets Alfa Laval separators apart is what’s on the inside: a broad scope of unique and patented technologies that, taken together, help dairy customers achieve improved product quality along with superior hygienic confidence. They also make it possible to drastically decrease both water and energy consumption, reducing both operational costs and environmental footprint.
Hermetic Design™
Gentle acceleration, powerful efficiency
A unique air-tight bowl that enables improved product quality and drastically reduces power consumption.
eDrive™
Mechanical simplicity for higher efficiency and lower costs
A direct-drive system with fewer rotating parts that minimizes both maintenance and energy costs.
UniDisc™
New levels of capacity and hygiene
A radical new disc design that decreases cleaning needs while increasing flow rate by up to 20%.
eMotion™
Double the output per kWh
An innovation to minimize friction, which cuts the separator´s energy consumption and CO2 footprint by up to 70%.
Bactofuge®
Outstanding solids capacity
Continuous solid discharge ensures an intact and highly concentrated stream for onward processing or as a valuable by-product. This makes it possible to increase separation capacity.
