  • Closing Devices and Nozzles (Mechanical Components)

CONT

After closing and sealing the door, setting the timer, and pulling out the operating handle, the steam inlet valve from the boiler opens, allowing steam at a pressure of 6 psi to enter the compartment. Air from the sealed compartment exits through the vent until the temperature reaches 180°F; then the vent closes and the compartment can become pressurized.

Record 4 2005-07-25

English

Subject field(s)
  • Food Preservation and Canning
  • Food Industries
  • Industrial Tools and Equipment
CONT

Retorts are generally large vessels into which a product is placed for processing or cooking with relatively low pressure steam. An example would be a canning retort into which sealed tins of food are placed. Steam is then used to heat or cook the contents of the can. Once the door is closed, it is vital to ensure that all the air and condensate is removed and replaced by dry saturated steam. A float-thermostatic trap(with its inbuilt air vent) is ideal, especially due to its ability to pass large volumes of condensate at relatively low pressure...
