Annular space heat exchanger intended for the heating of milk concentrate

SACOME has recently supplied a heat exchanger intended for heating milk concentrate with a dry extract of 45%, for a flexible production capacity between 3,000 and 6,000 kg/h.

For a product of such high consistency, the solution that offers the best performance is an annular space heat exchanger; In this case, among the different alternatives offered by our range of tubular heat exchangers, we recommend to our client the S-TF40R-D annular space heat exchanger with radial product inlet.

In order to optimally preserve the organoleptic characteristics of this dairy product, our client needed the deltaT (or temperature difference between the hot water and the pasteurization temperature of the concentrate) to be less than 2 ºC. Therefore, our technicians have take into account this parameter for sizing the tubular heat exchanger and calculate the necessary exchange area.

In addition, the supplied heat exchanger, like all the equipment in our range of annular space heat exchangers, is completely removable, which will greatly facilitate inspection and cleaning tasks for our client.
