Hermetic, bottom-fed Clara: the gentlest handling meets the highest efficiency

Alfa Laval’s unique bottom-fed Hermetic Design concept sets a market standard for efficient separation along with reduced power consumption. The design of the feed zone combined with the prevention of air-liquid interface ensures extremely gentle handling of shear-sensitive products, which can be particularly important in industrial fermentation and pharmaceutical processing. It also means there is no risk of product oxidization, enabling improved quality in food and beverage processing.
