ENGINEERING ADVANTAGES & KEY FEATURES
PARAS® Bulk Milk Coolers support the quality side of dairy operations. Buyers choose PARAS® because the company can discuss capacity, shape, refrigeration requirement, and practical daily use instead of offering a one-size-fits-all tank.
- Precise Temperature Control: The integrated digital temperature controller accurately maintains the milk temperature between 2°C to 4°C for controlled preservation, halting bacterial multiplication.
- Energy Efficient Refrigeration: Equipped with high-performance hermetically sealed compressor systems (Emerson / Copeland) designed for low power consumption, high cooling efficiency, and low noise operation.
- Durable & Reliable Construction: Built with strong SS 304 food-grade stainless steel construction and high-density PUF insulation to lock in the cold. Features like auto cut-off, overload protection, and an SS outlet valve support a long service life.
- Automated Agitation: A slow-speed SS agitator motor ensures the milk is continuously and gently stirred, preventing the cream from separating and ensuring uniform temperature distribution without churning the milk into butter.
Factory-Direct Pricing Matrix
Transparent baseline pricing from our Meerut manufacturing hub. Exact quotes depend on capacity, tank design (Open Top vs. Enclosed), and refrigeration tonnage requirements.
| Capacity Range | Tank Design | Indicative Domestic Price (INR) | Estimated Export Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100L – 500L | Open Top Vertical | ₹95,000 – ₹1,65,000 | $1,150 – $2,000 |
| 500L – 2000L | Semi-Cylindrical Horizontal | ₹1,65,000 – ₹4,20,000 | $2,000 – $5,150 |
| 2000L – 5000L | Fully Enclosed Industrial | ₹4,10,000 – ₹7,50,000+ | $5,000 – $9,200+ |
Factors That Determine BMC Price
- Compressor Quality: We use genuine Emerson/Copeland hermetically sealed compressors. Cheaper tanks often utilize refurbished or off-brand compressors that fail under continuous peak-summer loads.
- SS 304 Thickness & PUF Density: The thickness of the stainless steel inner and outer shell, combined with the density of the injected PUF insulation, determines how long the milk stays cold during power outages. Thicker materials command a higher initial price but save massive amounts of electricity.
Note: Commercial dairy processing machinery is subject to an 18% GST rate in India. ITC is available for registered businesses).
How A Bulk Milk Cooler Works
The fundamental purpose of a BMC is to rapidly extract body heat from freshly milked milk (usually around 35°C) and bring it down to a safe storage temperature (4°C) to prevent bacterial spoiling.
- Milk Intake: Warm raw milk is poured or pumped into the SS 304 tank.
- Refrigeration Cycle: The Emerson/Copeland compressor pumps refrigerant through evaporator coils wrapped securely around the inner SS tank walls. This draws the heat out of the milk.
- Agitation: Simultaneously, the slow-speed SS agitator stirs the milk. This ensures the milk closest to the cold walls doesn't freeze, while pushing the warmer milk toward the cooling surfaces for rapid, uniform chilling.
- Preservation: The digital controller monitors the temperature. Once the milk hits 4°C, the compressor automatically cuts off. The thick PUF insulation holds the temperature steady. If the temperature rises to 6°C, the compressor automatically kicks back on.
APPLICATIONS & WHO IS IT SUITABLE FOR?
This product is commonly used in practical dairy operations where reliability, hygiene, and correct capacity selection matter.
- Suitable For: Small farm cooling, cooperative and milk plant storage, collection centre requirements.
- Core Applications: Milk chilling, milk storage, collection centre cooling, farm milk preservation, milk plant intake support, and quality protection before transport.
Capacity Selection Guide
Capacity should be selected according to your daily milk quantity, available working hours, operator availability, and future growth. For exact selection, buyers should share their milk volume per day or required litres per hour.
- 100L – 500L: Ideal for individual mid-sized dairy farms milking twice a day.
- 500L – 2000L: The standard for village-level Milk Collection Centers (MCCs) aggregating milk from multiple local farmers.
- 2000L – 5000L: Required for regional chilling centers, dairy cooperatives, and processing plants managing bulk tanker logistics.
Indian Vs. Cheap Competitor Machines
When evaluating PARAS BMCs against low-cost market alternatives, the difference in refrigeration engineering and insulation determines your milk spoilage rate.
| Engineering Parameter | Cheap Local Tanks | Paras Bulk Milk Coolers |
|---|---|---|
| Compressor Unit | Reconditioned / Unknown brand | Genuine Emerson / Copeland hermetically sealed |
| Insulation | Low-density foam / Thermocol | High-Density Injected PUF |
| Temperature Control | Analog / Prone to freezing milk | Digital Controller with Auto Cut-Off |
| Material Integrity | SS 202 or thin gauge steel | Heavy-Gauge SS 304 Food Grade |
THE BMC ROI (MILK QUALITY & ENERGY PAYBACK)
The financial return on a PARAS BMC is driven by eliminating milk rejection and minimizing electricity consumption.
- Zero Spoilage (No Sour Milk): Without rapid chilling, raw milk sours within hours during Indian summers. A BMC guarantees your milk reaches the processing plant at peak quality, securing the highest fat/SNF pricing and eliminating costly batch rejections.
- Energy Efficiency: The combination of Emerson compressors and high-density PUF insulation means the compressor runs for shorter cycles. Once chilled, the PUF holds the temperature for hours without electricity, significantly reducing your monthly power bills.

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes do PARAS Bulk Milk Coolers come in?
We manufacture a complete range spanning from 100 LTRS for small farms up to 5000 LTRS for industrial cooperative chilling centers.
What type of compressor is used in the refrigeration unit?
We equip our BMCs with high-performance, hermetically sealed compressors from trusted global brands like Emerson and Copeland to ensure reliable, energy-efficient cooling.
Does the BMC run on single-phase or three-phase electricity?
Our standard power supply configuration is 230V / 50Hz / Single Phase, but we can customize the electrical panel (including 3-Phase options) based on your specific capacity requirements and local grid.
Will the milk freeze inside the tank?
No. The machine is equipped with a digital temperature controller featuring an auto cut-off function. Once the milk reaches the safe 2°C to 4°C range, the compressor automatically shuts down. The continuous slow-speed agitator also prevents localized freezing near the walls.
What material is the tank made of?
All milk-contact surfaces and the outer shell are constructed from high-quality, Food Grade Stainless Steel (SS 304) to ensure maximum hygiene and corrosion resistance.
What happens if there is a power cut?
The walls of the BMC are injected with thick, high-density PUF (Polyurethane Foam) insulation. Even during prolonged power outages, the PUF insulation prevents ambient heat from entering, keeping the milk cold for several hours.
Which design shape should I choose?
We recommend Open Top Vertical Cylindrical tanks for smaller volumes (100L-1000L), Semi-Cylindrical Horizontal designs for medium volumes (500L-2000L), and Fully Enclosed tanks for large-scale operations (1000L and above) to maximize hygiene.
Are spare parts readily available?
Yes. As the direct manufacturer (G.R. Jain Industries), we stock all OEM components, including agitator motors, digital controllers, and SS outlet valves, ensuring rapid dispatch and minimal downtime for our clients.
