Abstract

Sets out requirements for the design and critical operation of equipment, including control recording instrumentation used for continuous-flow pasterization at temperatures between 60C and 100C of milk and other liquid dairy products.

Scope

This Standard sets out requirements for the design and critical operation of equipment, including control and recording instrumentation, used for continuous-flow pasteurization, at temperatures between 60C and 100C, of milk and other liquid dairy products.
For the purpose of this Standard, a pasteurizer is deemed to begin with the inlet of the raw milk balance tank and end with the product discharge from the heat exchanger up to vacuum prevention or recirculation valve, as appropriate.
This Standard does not cover direct steam heating processes such as vacreation.
This Standard does not cover ultra-high temperature (UHT) systems.
