Pulsemaster, a global leader in Pulsed Electric Field systems for potato processing, supplied a PEF system to “a major European producer of high quality French Fries and potato specialities” four months ago.

That was for a line for the production of frozen french fries with an input capacity of 132,000 lbs/hr (60 tonnes per hour).

Now, that same producer has made another agreement with Pulsemaster to supply a 100kW PEF system for a new processing line. The PEF system will be installed in Q3, 2018.

Pulsemaster pointed out that their proprietary PEF-technology can be used to treat whole potato tubers at a capacity of up to 70-80 tonnes per hour per system and “sets a new standard in reducing Costs of Ownership in French fries processing”.

Mark de Boevere, Managing Director of Pulsemaster:
 
“We are extremely pleased that a European customer with very high standards and a global reputation has agreed to purchase Pulsemaster’s PEF equipment again for their next, new French fries processing line, only four months after the start-up of the producers’ first Pulsemaster PEF system.”
Pulsemaster added that the first system supplied operated perfectly from start-up and the processor reported excellent results; i.e. improved product and process. The cut potato strips had perfectly smooth surfaces in November and December last year whilst running the potato variety Fontane
