Plevnik CVS - Jam, Marmalade and Preserve Cooking Kettle with Scraper Agitator

Plevnik CVS is a professional cooking kettle primarily designed for the production of jams, marmalades, preserves, fruit butters, jellies, syrups, creams and other thick fruit and vegetable preparations. The manufacturer recommends it for cooking fruit and preparing jams, creams, jellies, syrups and other concentrated products requiring heat treatment.

The kettle is particularly suitable for products that tend to stick to the bottom or walls of the vessel during cooking. The central agitator is equipped with Teflon scrapers that operate along the heating surfaces, continuously removing product from them. This makes the equipment suitable for processing thick and viscous mixtures such as jams, marmalades, fruit purées, creams and concentrates.

The kettle is made of AISI 304 stainless steel. Its open design makes it easy to monitor the process, add ingredients and allow water to evaporate while concentrating the product. The two-part lid allows processing with the vessel partially open, which is particularly practical when producing fruit preserves.

The heating system uses oil operating at atmospheric pressure. The maximum oil temperature is 100°C. The system has a simple design and does not require a pump or automatic valves. The kettle does not have a cooling function.

The control panel allows the mixing speed to be adjusted and the desired heating temperature to be set. The insulated triple jacket helps reduce energy losses, while the DN 50 discharge valve allows the kettle to be emptied conveniently after processing. The equipment is mounted on a wheeled base, making it easy to move around the production facility.

The equipment is particularly suitable for producing jams, marmalades, preserves, fruit butters, jellies, fruit purées, syrups, creams, concentrates and other fruit and vegetable preparations. It can also be used for juice pasteurisation and the preparation of other thick food products.

The kettle is available in four sizes: CVS 50 EL with a working capacity of 15–50 litres, CVS 125 EL with 30–120 litres, CVS 200 EL with 40–200 litres and CVS 300 EL with 50–300 litres.

Depending on the model, the heating power ranges from 4 to 18 kW.
