ERM-96
Retort Food Manufacturing Startup Model
The most important feature of retort foods is that they can be stored at room temperature for a long time without the use of additives. This eliminates the need for refrigeration and freezing, making distribution possible without relying on the cold chain.
The ERM-96 is the most important sterilization device for the room temperature distribution of retort pouch foods, canned and bottled foods.
"F-value control" visualizes and controls the degree of sterilization; "low-temperature cooking and sterilization function ※1" is ideal for foods that require texture and freshness, such as meat and dairy products; 200g pouches can sterilize approximately 60 bags in one operation; and "Guide to sterilization technology" in detail This is one of the devices that supports the "new food business" through explanatory books and other means.
※1 Low-temperature cooking and sterilization cannot be used to store and distribute food at room temperature.
Refrigeration and freezing are required.

The ERM-96 is equipped with an "F-value operation mode" that automatically calculates complex F-values, ensuring reliable sterilization.
Additionally, food hygiene laws require sterilization data to be stored for three years, and sterilization data for each operation is automatically recorded on a digital recorder. Data can be extracted via USB memory and easily stored on your PC.
High temperature sterilization and pasteurization
To store food at room temperature, it requires a high-temperature sterilization of 100℃ or more. However, excessive heating can have a negative effect on the texture and color of the ingredients. For example, in meat and fish, the oil may separate, causing the texture to become dry. In this case, pasteurization of chilled food is required to a minimum of 100℃.
Many of the retort foods available in supermarkets are stews such as curries, because they have little change in texture or color due to high temperatures, making them suitable for mass production.
On the other hand, pasteurization of 100℃ or less allows for the production of foods that retain the texture and flavor of the ingredients. However, due to the low heating temperature, hygiene management during manufacturing and refrigeration are all the more important. It also has the disadvantage of having a short shelf life and its flavor being easily altered depending on the distribution and storage conditions.
Depending on the characteristics of the food, you can choose "high temperature sterilization" for those who value shelf life and ease of handling, or "pasteurization" for those who value deliciousness and natural flavor.

Air-burning prevention device
If there is a water shortage, an alarm will sound and automatically shut off. This prevents overheating due to dry lighting and ensures the safety of the equipment and its users.
Sensor break detection
An alarm will sound or stop the vehicle from operating if the temperature sensor fails. Instruments crucial for temperature control prevent equipment from running out of control.
Temperature over-rising/over-pressure prevention device
An alarm will sound and the vehicle will stop operating if the temperature inside the can exceeds the set temperature and pressure while the vehicle is in operation. This can easily occur if too much sterile material is packed into the container.
Foot tightening confirmation device
If the foot tightening is insufficient, the alarm will sound and operation will not start.
Ground fault breaker
Senses a power leakage in the equipment and turns off the main power supply. It activates in the event of a water leak or electrical component failure, preventing electric shock to the user.
Pressure safety valve
It allows steam to escape from the can when the pressure rises to an abnormal level, preventing the pressure from rising. This is a dual safety device that activates in the unlikely event that an electrical safety device malfunctions and the equipment goes out of control.
Water level detection function
If the water level in the can does not reach the default position, or if the water level rises above the default level, an alarm will sound and the operation will stop.
Water pressure detection function
The alarm will sound and stop operation when the water supply pressure is low, such as when the tap is not open.
Pressurization detection function
An alarm will sound and stop operation when the pressure in the pressurizing compressor is low.
Water supply and pumping device
If the water pressure in the faucet is low, the equipment will not function properly. ( 0.250MPa or less) High altitudes, coastal areas, buildings and apartment buildings may lack water pressure.
Adding this device between the faucet and the main body ensures stable water pressure.
Drainage cooling unit
During operation, steam and hot water are discharged, requiring a heat-resistant drainage system of 90℃ or higher.
Grating or steel heat-resistant drain pipes are fine, but if you don't have these, choose this device.
After the exhaust and drainage water have cooled, it is drained into the building.
