Description:
2017 Della Toffola DTX20 for sale $35,000 obo
ION EXCHANGE pH reduction machine
220 volts 3 phase 30amp

In great condition, we had sold this unit in 2017 and our client had only used it once a year. We have fully cleaned and regenerated the resin and calibrated the ph meters.
This was $60,000 when new so its a great deal!

Full training available. We own and operate a similar machine since 2016.

This is a COMPLETELY AUTOMATED CONTINUOUS 500gallons per hour Ion Exchange machine that reduces potassium (shifting pH down for juice or wine) and can also achieve Cold Stability for White and Rose' wines when processing a small percentage of a wine's volume removing enough potassium so that there will not be tartrate crystals formation.
Use it on small wine lots for pH correction or use it on very large wine tanks and let it run autonomously for more than a day!

This is an innovative technology that exploits the action of ionic exchange resins, which can be regenerated perfectly with the aid of a sulfuric acid solution.

The quantity of potassium contained in the wine being stabilized is gradually reduced. By reading the pH values at the inlet and at the outlet, the operator can establish the resulting level of wine stabilization and continue the process until the required condition has been reached.

The onboard two resin tanks are perfectly independent both in the regeneration of the resins and during the measurement of the pH by means of suitable instrument on the outlet of the treated wine.

The main effects of this treatment are:
•  Lowering the pH resulting in less risk of malolactic fermentation.
•  improvement of the tartaric stability (reduced conductivity fall)
•  increase of colour vibrancy in red wines
•  general improvement of organoleptic characteristics due to an injection of freshness on the nose that is perceptible in the mouth
•  lowering the concentration of calcium and potassium ions, resulting in the achievement of the tartaric stability
•  lowering the concentration of Iron and metals in General (reduced risk of iron content) – Manganese reduction.
•  increase of total acidity
•  aromatic stabilisation
•  This technology is very interesting even when applied on musts clarified (turbidity < 30 NTU), thus bringing the pH around the desired value you can lead the fermentation with less risk of bacterial alterations and with a reduced use of sulfites.
