Understanding the Customer's Process Needs
Food, beverage and dairy producers face complex product compositions and increasingly stringent regulations while striving to produce quality products efficiently. ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï offers services based on a near-century of tubular heat exchanger design experience. Heat transfer engineering at ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï begins with understanding the specific customer needs to meet production goals. Through designing application-specific tubular heat exchanger configurations, ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï application engineers can implement cutting-edge technologies from clean-in-place systems to heat recovery systems. Outside of direct tubular heat exchanger design, ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï offers process optimization services to help customers select the optimal heat transfer system for their production process. Process and equipment optimization are also heavily influenced by ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï Innovation Centers and global testing labs. These environments are controlled settings to test ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï heat transfer equipment within a heavily monitored system utilizing a customer’s product or a simulant to achieve an accurate representation of functional conditions. Innovation Centers and test labs allow customers to develop their products, equipment and process in one singular location.
TUBULAR HEAT EXCHANGER DESIGN
Finding The Right Heat Exchanger
Choosing the right tubular heat exchanger relies on several foundational criteria: factory space, heat processing details, and process interconnectivity. ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï heat exchanger engineers work closely with customers to understand their process’ heat transfer needs. A high-level analysis of the customer process allows our engineers to determine a viable heat transfer solution and the production line’s requirements for seamless integration. The next variable is space, ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï heat transfer engineers will recommend tubular heat exchanger solutions to fit within the available production space. We at ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï understand the often-limited space a factory possesses and working within that limit can prove critical to a project’s success.
Heat Transfer Expertise
Tubular heat exchanger engineers must also construct an optimized solution that is deeply specific to the customer’s product to maintain the customer's standards of quality.ÌýTubular heat exchangers are available with a range of customizations. Depending on the need, ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï tubular heat exchanger engineers can develop customized systems for Ultra High Temperature (UHT) processing. This includes creating tubular heat exchangers to process products while keeping nutritional components intact.
Specific Heat Exchanger Design
Paratube tubular heat exchangers for example, are designed for single or multi-purpose product processing. Excellent for food and beverage applications processing products with particles, products sensitive to texture changes and high viscosity products.
Cutting Edge Process Technologies
±¬ÁÏ¹Ï tubular heat exchangers are designed integrating select cutting edge systems. Tubular heat transfer solutions can accommodate hygienic production, resource efficiency, Extensive clean-in-place systems and other process-based requirements.
CLEAN-IN-PLACE SYSTEMS
Tubular Heat Exchanger CIP TechnologiesÌý
Ìý
±¬ÁÏ¹Ï Clean-In-Place (CIP) systems can be integrated into tubular heat exchanger systems to meet or exceed industry hygienic standards. Clean-In-Place systems can be heavily taxing on the water consumption of a factory. ±¬ÁÏ¹Ï efficient CIP systems for tubular heat exchangers are designed specifically to reduce the water use of the CIP process while maintaining a strict level of sanitation. The cutting-edge CIP technology minimizes the energy, water, and chemical consumption of the sanitation process. The efficient design of the CIP system also optimizes production line run time, by shortening the downtime needed for the CIP process. This level of efficiency is reached through high flow rates and turbulence, both utilized to maximize sanitation and minimize production downtime.
