HACCP and dataGraphical HACCP set points and alarms with recorded heating, mixing and cooling cycles searchable by date. HACCP and program data exportable via USB.
Heating functionProTemp real-time control allows setting food temperature, jacket temperature or Delta-T. Temperature display for both food and jacket; range up to 120°C with 1°C precision. Maximum jacket pressure 1.0 bar. Smart power profiles support delicate or full-power heating modes.
Automatic water fillingStandard controlled water filling via touchscreen: set litres or manual tap. Water spout designed for low-pressure filling and operable while tilting.
Mixer featuresBottom-mounted two-directional mixer with auto-reverse, step-less speed 10–160 rpm and separate power-mix function for raw ingredients. Mixing while tilting supported. Nine pre-programmed patterns plus custom pattern saving. Mixer stops immediately if lid opened. Removable mixing tool and detachable scrapers; quick-release stainless steel lid with 1/3 safety grid for cleaning.
Tilting functionsElectric or hydraulic tilting system (size dependent) operated by push button; tilting only while button pressed. Auto tilt-back to prevent overfilling. Pouring spout to floor height 600 mm. Slow mixing while tilting standard. Optional foot pedal for hands-free tilting while mixing.
Cooling (optional)With cooling configured, jacket circulation of chilled water (via chiller or ice bank) can reduce product temperature from ~95°C to ~3°C in ~1 hour depending on viscosity and size. Available systems: C3i/C3iPA (closed), C2 (open), C5i (combined). Some PA variants limited by size or steam configuration.
Other functionsConsumption tracking (energy and water) viewable and saved to diagnostics; water use breakdown by food water, bypass, jacket fill and total. Machine logs operating hours and usage. Safety features include prevention of accidental button presses, mixer stop on lid open, alarms/timers and reminders for semi-automatic safety valve tests.
