The Gaulin Mono-Block Design
Gaulin Homogenizer Mono-Block with Hydraulic Actuation

The Gaulin cylinder block for sanitary applications provides an in-line flow pattern and minimizes the number of sealed areas. Top and front caps improve accessibility and simplify maintenance.

  • Poppet Valves for low-viscosity, moderately abrasive products, like ice cream mixes and dairy products, vegetable oils, and silicone emulsions.
  • Ball Valves, designed for high-viscosity, abrasive products including peanut butter, evaporated milk, wax emulsion lubricants and pigments.
  • Aseptic Double-Packed Cylinders, are engineered for aseptic processing and can also provide containment of fugitive emissions (compounds that are pathogenic, toxic, and radioactive flammable).

    • The Rannie Three-Piece Valve Housing

    The Rannie cylinder block exemplifies engineering superiority and is well suited for both sanitary and industrial applications. The design of this homogenizer allows for pressure segregation from the suction and discharge manifolds, reducing the possibility of breaking or cracking when adverse operating conditions are present or operating pressures exceed 8,700 psi (600 bar). The Rannie homogenizer is well suited for ultra-high pressure or severe duty applications. It is also available in an aseptic design. The Rannie homogenizer incorporates both ball and poppet valves with no difference in capacity.
