Fry the Perfect Chip With Elea Advantage PEF systems

Fry the perfect potato chip with Elea PEF Advantage Belt systems

Elea PEF Advantages Belt systems increase value, enhance production and improve quality for potato chips

Reduce costs

Reduced energy and water consumption, better knife ware.

Increase yield

PEF treated potato is softer resulting in easier cutting and less fines and breakages.

Control colour

Less oil uptake, increased water evaporation and lower frying temperatures lead to less browning and improved colour.

Improve quality

Elea PEF Advantage produces crunchier, crispier, brighter coloured, healthier chips.

New product opportunity

More flexible potato produced by PEF enables more complex cuts and shapes.

We have installed more than 175 Elea PEF systems globally, working for some of the world’s leading food producers. Every Elea PEF Advantage systems share the same 24/7 production capability and are built to operate under extreme conditions.

All Elea systems are designed to be easily and fully integrated into your existing production line with minimal disruption.

Elea PEF Advantage benefits for potato chips

Pulsed Electric Field gently opens the pores in the potatoes cell membrane, transforming the products structure. It’s a clean, gentle, targeted process. After treatment the raw material is smoother, softer and has better strength and flexibility.

Better colour and less browning for batch and continuous

An optimized frying process with lower temperatures results in colour improvements.

Cutting force reduction with PEF of up to 50% for batch and continuous

The PEF induced open cell structure and water release softens the raw material making cutting easier.

Longer knife durability for batch and continuous

The softer PEF treated potato results in easier cutting and increased knife durability.

Improved texture and crispiness for batch and continuous

Enhanced water release and homogeneous starch gelatinization lead
to an improved crunch and mouthfeel.
