Homogenizer Compression Block
The Standard compression block is a monoblock head which pumps the product up to the homogenizing valve at high pressure.
The Standard compression block design is based on the optimization of internal passages, with radiused surfaces and without dead zone that minimize the stresses generated by the pulsating pressure, especially on the areas of intersection of holes and channels for the product passage.
Other unique features complement the head: the valve seats can be easily removed, the configuration of the ball or mushroom pumping valves are fully interchangeable, the aseptic version, the 3-A arrangement, the special materials, the wide range of packages for pistons, the front access for maintenance and replacement of the piston gaskets (packings).

It may surprise you how many products need homogenization in their manufacturing process to make them more compatible with your daily life. Stabilization and a longer shelf life have always been among the highest priorities in many different processing industries but, especially nowadays, as lifestyles continue to change rapidly, they are becoming more and more valued.
