摘要:
A milking installation (1) is shown with a milking robot (2) for automatically connecting teat cups (3) to the teats of a dairy animal. Milk lines (4) extend between the teat cups and a milk de-aeration unit or milk glass (5). A de-aeration port (6) is present at the top of the de-aeration unit and a de-aeration line (7) connects the milk glass to a vacuum system (not shown). At the bottom of the milk glass a milk inlet line (8) is provided which connects the milk glass to the milk pump (9). The milk pump includes a milk inlet (10), a pump housing (11), a milk outlet (12). The milk pump (9) is a membrane pump which type of pump is known to be gentle to the milk and thus reduce occurrence of lypolysis of the milk when pumped through the milking installation.
