Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a system for heating fluid, this comprising both liquids and gases. Such systems are generally known and are applied for instance in automatic milking systems in order to generate a steam surge for the purpose of thereby cleaning equipment, such as the milking cups of such an automatic milking system. A system according to the invention comprises for this purpose a heating chamber with a heating element; a feed which is connected to the heating chamber and via which the heating chamber can be selectively filled; and a discharge which is likewise connected to the heating chamber and via which fluid can be discharged from the heating chamber, wherein at least the discharge is connected at or at least close to the bottom of the heating chamber. Accumulation of residues can thus be effectively prevented in that they can be discharged each time heated fluid is removed from the heating chamber.
