Ice Builders

A Liscarroll Ice Builder will enable you to produce and store large quantities of ice separately. The chilled water will not only allow instant cooling of any product, but it will also reduce the resk of bacterial growth. Liscarroll Ice Builders can also be used to take advantage of “off peak” electricity which will drastically reduce running costs.

Standard Features

All Stainless Steel slimline compact design
High density insulation
Dual-setting Ice Controller for maximum/minimum production
Condensing Unit(s) attached or remote
Two chilled water pumps
Air assisted agitation on larger models

Highlighted Features

Instant Cooling
Low Power Requriement
No Risk of Freezing

Ice Bank

Milk is cooled indirectly by circulating chilled water through the laser welded evaporator plates of the milk tank.

Plate Cooler

Ice Bank Tank

Why Use An Ice Bank Tank?

These systems are generally used where:

The power supply on farm is inadequate
Off-peak electricity tariffs may offer economic benefits
There is no risk of freezing, very suitable for robotic milking

Instant Cooling Option

Milk can be cooled instantly to 40C or less by circulating chilled water and mains/well through a plate cooler before it enters the Milk Tank.

Controls

Liscarroll Milk Tanks are designed to be reliable easy to use and service friendly.

All components used to regulate the cooling and washing functions are commercially available “off -the-shelf” parts if required readily available at affordable prices. Only reputable and well-known brands are used.

Option

Independent Tank Monitoring & Management System
Alerts via SMS, Email and Phone Call
Daily Temperature Reports
Remote Access Anytime Anywhere
And Much More

Cooling Regulation

Conventional thermostatic expansion valves to control refrigerate flow and protect the compressor. Located on the rear of tank on top
Compressors(s) on DX tank with “pump-down” system to protect evaporator plates from possible damage from hot washing
High Density Polyutherane (ECO friendly)foamed insulation up to 200mm thick between inner and outer vessels creating high rigidity and excellent insulation
Minimum heat loss and reduced running costs

Agitation

Standard SIREM motors. Motors that are made specifically for Milk cooling tanks and are the most widely used make on Milk Tanks across Europe and beyond
Motors are protected from damage by preventing contact with wash water either by use of Waterproof Gaskets or raised Agitator Mounting Plate

Cooling

Stand Out Features:

Optimum Perforamnce
Maximum Reliability
Minimum Operating Costs

Our standard controller is the LE-200. This controls the cooling, agitation and washing functions

Cooling start delay for the first milking
Deep cool timed facility (temperature controlled at 20C) to ensure milk is at the required collection temperature sooner and to maximize use of lower rate electricity
Optional visual or audible alarms (e.g. Cooling time exceeded for first milking)

Independent backup cooling controller (Carel) built-in as standard further protecting your investment.

OPTION: Our LE-300 controller in addition to the above has full Robot Milking compatibility and complete monitoring capability.

Cooling Units

Copeland Scroll Compressors for unbeatable efficiency and reliability

Evaporator Plates

Conventional thermostatic expansion valves to control refrigerate flow and protect the compressor. Located on the rear of tank on top
Compressors(s) on DX tank with “pump-down” system to protect evaporator plates from possible damage from hot washing
Superior energy efficient performance due to low volume evaporator plates resulting in less power required to fill the plates with coolant
Optimised dimple pattern in the lasered plates ensures high turbulence and more economical cooling

Washing

Features:

Versatile and flexible washing functions for all on-farm variations
Configurable wash programs to meet your specific needs
Customiszable programs to future proof your investment against changing environmental
policies
Automatic and manual descale facility
Adjustable Quick Rise built in programs
