PTN
 

Retention Time Barrel

To achieve a very long retention time in combination with a high temperature, PTN developed the Retention Time Barrel.
Better feed quality and elimination of bacteria will be achieved by operating at critical temperatures and extended retention times.

Product description:

The RTB is a heavy-duty construction, fabricated mainly from stainless steel, including the housing, main shaft and the rotor blades.

The RTB body consists of composite panels. Comprising of electrical tracing to increase temperature control and insulation to decrease heat loss and is finished with a resilient stainless steel outer cover. 

The required retention time can be predetermined and is adjustable up to a maximum operating capacity. The flow of the meal being conditioned is on a "first in - first out" basis.

 
 


Advantages of the RTB:

All feed contact parts are made of stainless steel.

Low energy consumption during operation.

Eliminates the risk of entro-bacteria contamination.

Increased starch gelatinisation.

Very low consumable costs.

Simple design and easy to operate

Reduced damage to vitamins as a result of conditioning.

Improved product quality.

High operating temperature eliminates the risk of salmonella.
