Agromilk - Model OM/IB -Ice Water Cooling System

Rapidly ice cold, but never frozen

One such trend is the advent of mega farms, where round-the-clock milking requires that large, continuous volumes of milk need to be rapidly cooled.

On farms using milking robots or at milk collection centres, milk is conveyed at lower or varying rates of flow.

Milk Cooling Tanks with Integrated Ice Builder

Open milk cooling tanks with integrated ice builder, from 600 to 2,300 litres The Fullwood Packo open bulk milk cooler, type OM/IB with an integrated ice builder, uses ice water to cool the milk. The technology accelerates cooling by 50 % compared to a standard direct expansion system, without any risk of freezing the milk.

As the ice bank stores a reserve of ice, there is no need for the cooling units to be switched on during milking. The ice water cools the milk without the risk of freezing, even with only small amounts of milk inside the cooling tank.

• The ice water tank features a built-in ice bank ensuring intensive milk cooling without any risk of freezing
• The ice bank system sprays ice water across the external surface of the inner tank, accelerating cooling by 50% compared to a standard direct expansion system
• An ice reserve is formed providing a safety net should there be a fluctuation in power
• Thanks to ‘smart metering’ the ice water can be produced highly economically
