  • Alfa Laval’s unique bottom-fed Hermetic Design™ provides superior skimming efficiency and maintains premium product quality
  • The bottom-fed design reduces shear forces for gentle product treatment that preserves the size of the fat globules
  • Hermetic seals on inlet and outlet prevent oxidation and reduce the foaming of the milk
  • Easy adaptation to process conditions provides increased production flexibility and efficient CIP
  • Energy savings of up to 60% thanks to the Hermetic Design™, reaching up to 75% when combined with eMotion™

The objective of milk clarification is to remove somatic cells and impurities. While many clarifiers can only be used for either hot or cold milk, the Alfa Laval D series can process both. In whey clarification, removing cheese fines from whey before it reaches the separator is necessary for maintaining optimum fat separation and long run times. Alfa Laval D series separators take care of clarification upstream of the whey separator, which is the most efficient way to remove cheese fines.

The D series dairy separators are utilized in various applications, including butter and spread production, cheese making, ice cream production, milk and cream processing, as well as the processing of whey, casein, lactose, yogurt, and cultured milk.
