VU series
Advantages
- operating point > 200 bar
- tried-and-tested robust design
- developed/designed for continuous operation
- requirement-related design due to variation of individual components such as motor, coupling, base plate, etc.
- requirement-related design due to the use of diverse materials
Possible applications 
- degasification of toothpaste, cremes, lotions, marzipan, etc.
- degasification (oxygen deprivation) of meat and sausage products
- extraction of condensates for the production of sugar, sugar-based sweets, fruit juice / pulp, jam / marmalade
- vacuum cooking of fruit, vegetables, pulp and mush
- thickening and crystallization of sugar under vacuum
- distillation / separation of liquids...
