Continuous Microwave Tempering Unit TMW

SAIREM

The TMW range of microwave tempering systems from SAIREM provides rapid, continuous tempering for meat, poultry, fish, fruits, vegetables, and butter products. Microwave energy is generated by a MW generator and is guided by waveguides into the cavity. The TMW range is ideal for processing products with an irregular shape, i.e., pieces of meat. The system offers high flexibility for production with fast treatment times (between 5 to 20 minutes). Optimal microwave distribution provides products with optimal temperature for further processing (+/- 1 °C). With a smaller footprint than radio-frequency systems, the TMW range features a large loading/unloading section and spacious cavity, maximising throughput, efficiency, and homogeneity.

MW leak detector and safety interlocks

Tempering capacities from 1 t/h to 9t/h

Available with power from 10 to 300 kw

EQUIPMENT MODELS

The TMW range of continuous microwave tempering units are available in 4 different models. Tempering capacities are variable and depend on the final required temperature, product type, product shape and level of fat.

TMW35

35kW power with tempering capacity between 1 t/hr and 1.5 t/hr from -20°C to a final temperature of -2°C/ -1°C.

TMW75

75kW power with a tempering capacity between 2 t/h and 3 t/h from - 20°C to a final temperature of -2°C/ -1°C. The TMW75’s modular design allows for future scalability.

TMW150

150kW power with a tempering capacity between 4 t/h and 6 t/h from - 18°C to a final temperature of -2°C/ -1°C. The TMW150’s modular design allows for future scalability.

TMW225

225kW power with a tempering capacity between 6 t/h and 9 t/h from -18°C to a final temperature of -2°C/ -1°C. The TMW225’s modular design allows for future scalability.

EXPERT OPINION

Sam Crooks

Technical Sales Manager

“SAIREM’s microwave and radio-frequency equipment is optimised to the specific requirements of a given application, offering high thermal efficiency and shorter processing times to ensure better preservation of the organoleptic properties. Typically, payback can be of the order of several months, subject to existing drip losses which are sometimes overlooked. Contact us for more information.”

ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION

Continuous Microwave Tempering Unit TMW

Microwave and radio-frequency technologies are perfectly suited to improving thermal processing in the food industry. Heat generation is almost instantaneous and allows for a perfectly controlled process, thanks to rapid, uniform heating. Almost all of the energy is transferred to the treated product, drastically minimising energy losses.

For over 40 years, SAIREM’s dedicated research and development team have been developing optimum microwave and radio-frequency solutions for customers specific defrosting and tempering requirements.

Intralock safety system
Independent control panel for the generator
Lost lasting magnetron (up to 20,000 hours)
Long service life
Minimal service requirement
Optional block height adjustable – can be configured to accommodate anything from a standard frozen meat block to a standard frozen block of butter

SAIREM’s tempering by microwave and radio-frequency technologies offer many advantages compared to traditional processes.

Speed

Traditional tempering methods may take hours or even days to temper products. Microwave tempering takes up to 10 minutes. Radio-frequency (RF) can take up to 30 - 40 minutes and is suited to very sensitive products, e.g. fish.

Savings

The speed and uniformity offered by microwave and radio frequency processes eliminates product drip losses and degradation, preventing weight loss (drip loss may be up to 10%) thereby significantly improving raw material yield. Payback on investment can be as short as 6 to 12 months.

Safety

The potential for the growth of pathogenic bacteria as part of a conventional chilled tempering process, is eliminated due to the rapidity of microwave and radio-frequency tempering processes. In addition, SAIREM’s equipment is fully interlocked, and fitted with sensors to detect and prevent microwave/radio-frequency leakage.

Quality

Unlike some typical chilled tempering processes, SAIREM’s microwave and radio frequency tempering methods help preserve all organoleptic properties of your food products. Colour is improved, and weight, flavour, and nutritional attributes are maintained. Temperature homogeneity of +/- 1°C is achievable throughout a product.
