<p>The invention relates to a contrivance for heating pasteurising/sterilising fluids, which comprises a main chamber (1) in which the substance to be heated is brought into direct contact with heating fluid, and a transit-chamber (4) in which the substance circulates prior to entering the main chamber, also, a tubular element (7) part-contained within the transit-chamber and extending forth from within same in order to combine with the transit-chamber exit-aperture (6) in creating an annular exit-collar (13) through which the substance flows in order to reach the chamber-bottom by running down the tubular element side-wall; the tubular element and the transit-chamber inner wall creating an annular passage (13) immediately up-flow of said exit-aperture whose access-capacity may be adjusted by axial slide of the tubular element thus affording the means by which to regulate flow through the contrivance.</p> |
