engineering for a better world
NiSoCLEAN is a compression block with an hygienic design spe-
cifically conceived for food industry products, especially for pro-
biotic foods containing fibre and solid parts, baby food, viscous
condiments and protein-rich foods. The innovative mechanics
of the NiSoCLEAN compression block, designed according to
the best hygienic regulations, allows the product to flow con-
tinuously, reducing the shear stress passages and facilitating
the fluid feed into the homogenizing valve with consequent
optimization of the entire homogenization process.

Technical featuresThe technological evolution based on the OpenXFLOTM compres-
sion head has optimized some technical details in order to make
NiSoCLEAN perfectly hygienic and easily cleanable:
• dead space reduction
• absence of springs and spacers
• improved gaskets flushing
This new design with reduced dead-ends permits NiSoCLEAN
to be the best solution for homogenizers with high hygienic re-
quirements.
NiSoCLEAN is available for homogenizers from model Ariete
NS3011 up to Ariete NS5355, for working pressure up to 600
bar.
The NiSoCLEAN configuration allows a considerable saving of
water, cleaning agents and time with a lower environmental
impact and a reduced energy consumption during the process
activities.
Design concept
Standard configuration NiSoCLEAN compression head
Main advantages• Ultra clean design for better cleanability and economic use of
CIP media and water
• Special hygienic pumping valves assembly with flused gaskets
• Improved instruments ports positioning for better flushing
• Free product flow without clogging (especially for product
with large particles or long fibers)
• Suitable for highly viscous and sticky products
• Corrosion resistance materials for a wide range of product
processing
• Configurable pressure and capacity range
• Possibility to install ball or poppet valves with or without
springs
• 3-A approved design, with electropolished and cGMP versions
available.
Improved suction valve covers
No spacers, reduced dead legs and improved packing flushing
Improved suction valve covers
Open instruments ports with reduced dead legs and direct flushing

Applications of homogenizationThe NiSoCLEAN special design is suitable for highly viscous and
sticky products, such as:
• Viscous condiments and dressing
• Baby food
• Probiotic foods with long fibers and solid pieces
• High proteins content special dairy and food products
Advantages on final product:• Improves stability and therefore shelf-life
• Improved product quality by means of low product shear
stress in the pumping section, combined with optimal homog-
enization
• Allows product standardization
• Improves the mouth feeling and taste
• Decreases the need for additives and stabilizers
• Contributes to the optimization of the product composition

Features and solutions
Production rangeNiSoCLEAN is a compression block design which can be installed
on standard drive end as option, to comply with special products
requirements.
Typical working pressure rating is 150-450 bar, special execu-
tions for flow rate and pressure rating are available upon re-
quest.
NiSoCLEAN is applicable on machine models Ariete NS3011,
