Scraped surface heat exchangers for high viscosity products
In various industries, including food processing and personal care, managing the heating and cooling of highly viscous products presents significant challenges. Traditional methods can be inefficient and may not offer uniform results, especially for products with viscosities in the 1,000,000 centipoise range.
Effectively heat and cool high viscosity products
The Votator II Extra Heavy Duty scraped surface heat exchanger from SPX Flow is specifically engineered to handle products with viscosities up to 1,000,000 centipoise. Designed with concentric, eccentric, or oval heat transfer tubes, it offers optimal processing conditions for a wide range of applications. Featuring a high torque 17-4 ph stainless steel drive end spline and a modified motor pedestal for high horsepower gear drives, this heat exchanger ensures consistent operation under heavy-duty conditions. The use of 3-A, ASME, and PED certified materials guarantees compliance with industry standards. Moreover, different blade materials, including FDA-compliant plastic options and various stainless steel types, are available to meet specific process needs, ensuring efficient and reliable performance.
