Padovan Dynamos Upgrades
ATPGroup has worked with Padovan to bring equipment upgrades to our Dynamos customers and provide a range of options. These upgrades not only enhance productivity but also introduce new features, all without the need for investing in entirely new equipment.
Option 1 — Dynamos 20 upgrade
Depending on model/ year some of these options may already be equipped on your unit.
- Integrity test at the start of a CIP & in between cycles of CIP. (Program only)
- This can significantly reduce the risks of causing a domino effect inside the bell.
- Automatic nitrogen introduction into filtrate side of disk at end of product discharge. (Program only)
- Will prevent pores on disks from plugging in the event a CIP/ Rinse is not initiated immediately after discharging.
- Automatic backwash at the start of filtration. (Program only)
- Stabilizes flowrates earlier in the filtration run to allow for faster concentration of product.
- Automatic venting through CV24 during Peroxide Hold.
- Eliminated the need to manually vent during cycle pause. (Program only)
- Pressurized turbidity meter. (Program & cutting/ welding)
- Allows the unit to operate with no false alarms when filtering fermenting juice lees.
- FIT4 flowmeter on Retentate (Program & cutting/ welding)
- Automatic speed increments of M1 to assure proper flow of product to minimize risk of over concentration in bell.
- MV2 on filtrate. (Program & cutting/ welding)
- Automatic modulating valve on filtrate to produce consistent back pressure will prevent spikes in pressure and consistent flowrate during filtration.
Option 2 — Dynamos HP upgrade
This upgrade includes all the above plus the following:
- Adding 8 meters more per shaft of filtration surface area by installing thinner spacers, allowing an additional 14 disks more per shaft, larger M1, and larger piping on the inlet/ retentate side.
- Complete replacement of all Disks to stronger HP Disks.
- You can expect to nearly double your current flow rate per hour.
