These Terra Food Tech® autoclaves are specially designed to cook, sterilize, and pasteurize packaged foods. A core temperature probe is attached to a product sample. This allows the entire process to be precisely controlled while preserving the organoleptic properties and minimizing any changes to the nutritional characteristics of the end product.
Area of application
The possible applications are diverse – from industrial production environments to professional kitchens.
They are used in industrial food production as well as in research and development of pilot batches within the food industry. They are also used in testing new materials in the packaging industry. In addition, autoclaves are a valuable tool for institutional agricultural projects and vocational and culinary schools, where they are used for training and practical demonstrations.
They also provide valuable services in catering, cooking, and haute cuisine when it comes to producing high-quality, durable, and sensory-perfect products. Finally, they offer small businesses a compact and efficient solution for processing food safely and to the highest quality standards.
The autoclaves are easy to operate and enable precise pasteurization or sterilization with exact F₀ and P₀ values. Adjustable temperature between 177 and 266 °F*.
Programmable back pressure value (up to 2.1 barg) depending on the type of container for pressure-sensitive products.
Rapid cooling with a water shower to prevent the product from overcooking, thereby optimally preserving product quality, texture, and color.
Manage and document the process from start to finish with our software for maximum documentation security.
Key features
Terra Food Tech® autoclaves are easy to operate and enable precise pasteurization or sterilization with exact F₀ and P₀ values. Rapid cooling by water shower prevents overcooking, thereby optimally preserving quality, texture, and color.
Programmable back pressure ensures the safe processing of pressure-sensitive products. The integrated software documents and monitors the entire process, while the core temperature sensor ensures reproducible results and maximum process reliability. Comprehensivesafety measures also guarantee the protection of users and products.

Frequently Asked Questions
Key features include:
- Precise control of temperature and pressure (e.g., F₀/P₀ values) for safe sterilization/pasteurization.
- Rapid cooling to prevent overcooking and loss of quality.
- Software and documentation options for traceability and auditing.
- The type of packaging or material (can, glass, plastic bag) influences the process design: adjustment of pressure, temperature, cooling phase, etc.
- Rapid cooling is crucial: this minimizes overcooking and loss of quality.
- Validation & documentation: For production or certified food manufacturing, it is important that parameters are regularly recorded and evaluated (e.g., via USB, Ethernet).
