engineering for a better world

NiSoCLEAN is a compression block with an hygienic design spe-

cifically conceived for food industry products, especially for pro-

biotic foods containing fibre and solid parts, baby food, viscous

condiments and protein-rich foods. The innovative mechanics

of the NiSoCLEAN compression block, designed according to

the best hygienic regulations, allows the product to flow con-

tinuously, reducing the shear stress passages and facilitating

the fluid feed into the homogenizing valve with consequent

optimization of the entire homogenization process.

Technical featuresThe technological evolution based on the OpenXFLOTM compres-

sion head has optimized some technical details in order to make

NiSoCLEAN perfectly hygienic and easily cleanable:

• dead space reduction

• absence of springs and spacers

• improved gaskets flushing

This new design with reduced dead-ends permits NiSoCLEAN

to be the best solution for homogenizers with high hygienic re-

quirements.

NiSoCLEAN is available for homogenizers from model Ariete

NS3011 up to Ariete NS5355, for working pressure up to 600

bar.

The NiSoCLEAN configuration allows a considerable saving of

water, cleaning agents and time with a lower environmental

impact and a reduced energy consumption during the process

activities.

Design concept

Standard configuration NiSoCLEAN compression head

Main advantages• Ultra clean design for better cleanability and economic use of

CIP media and water

• Special hygienic pumping valves assembly with flused gaskets

• Improved instruments ports positioning for better flushing

• Free product flow without clogging (especially for product

with large particles or long fibers)

• Suitable for highly viscous and sticky products

• Corrosion resistance materials for a wide range of product

processing

• Configurable pressure and capacity range

• Possibility to install ball or poppet valves with or without

springs

• 3-A approved design, with electropolished and cGMP versions

available.

Improved suction valve covers

No spacers, reduced dead legs and improved packing flushing

Improved suction valve covers

Open instruments ports with reduced dead legs and direct flushing


Applications of homogenizationThe NiSoCLEAN special design is suitable for highly viscous and

sticky products, such as:

• Viscous condiments and dressing

• Baby food

• Probiotic foods with long fibers and solid pieces

• High proteins content special dairy and food products

Advantages on final product:• Improves stability and therefore shelf-life

• Improved product quality by means of low product shear

stress in the pumping section, combined with optimal homog-

enization

• Allows product standardization

• Improves the mouth feeling and taste

• Decreases the need for additives and stabilizers

• Contributes to the optimization of the product composition
