The Armfield FT102X miniature-scale carbonator provides theability to establish precise and repeatable parameters whencarbonating in the laboratory, this can dramatically improve thespeed with which new products are developed. The FT102X is a totally new design including a large number of improvements and enhancements. In particular, special attention has been given to the ease of use, enhanced flexibility, reliabilityand improved Clean In Place (CIP). Both premix and postmix operations are available from the standard machine, and an option is available to add the syrup for postmix automatically. Other options enable for deaeration of the product and evacuation of the bottles, continuous processing capability, and filling and capping (screw and/or crown) at a single station without removing the bottle. The FT102X Carbonator/Filler is easy to install, set up and use. Colour touch screen control is used with a new graphicalinterface, enabling different carbonating and filling scenarioses to be set andstored. The improved semi-automated cleaning programme takesthe user step by step through the cleaning process and enables the unit to be made ready for another product or formulation. The FT102X is ideally suited as a general purpose filling andcarbonation installation for small laboratory applications. Used in conjunction with one of Armfield’s FT74 UHT/HTST units, a complete drinks line can be created in the laboratory; consisting of heat treatment, carbonation, filling and capping.
