Wedholms DFC 953 milk cooling tank

The DFC 953 range of milk cooling tanks that uses CO₂ as refrigerant in standard cooling systems of the direct expansion cooling type has been introduced by Wedholms. The tank is compatible with the revised F-gas Regulation that will be mandatory in the European Union from January next year.

The range is available for robotic milking with one to eight robots and with capacity ranging from 3200 to 30,000 L.

The compressor of the DFC 953 range of milk cooling tanks operates with frequency control, running at exactly the speed required by the process. A small batch with 20 L of milk is refrigerated, to the right temperature, just as effectively as a larger ones of 200 L, avoiding formation of ice in the tank.

The range is compatible with all robot milking machines. A variety of adapter kits is available.

The control system provides a range of options for efficient agitation and temperature control as well as advanced alarm functions.

Thorough cleaning is provided by a spray head, designed to eliminate calcium deposits and bacteria growth across the entire inside of the tank with a powerful water jet.
