Tubular heat exchanger for food products
Achieve precise temperature control and energy efficiency with this innovative tubular heat exchanger, designed to handle a wide range of liquid food products. Enhance product safety with reduced contamination risk and enjoy customizable flexibility for diverse processing needs.
The Tetra Pak Tubular Heat Exchanger is a versatile solution engineered to optimize thermal processing for the food and beverage industry. Its unique design integrates straight and corrugated tubes for enhanced performance, offering a robust solution for heating, cooling, and heat recovery processes. Suitable for a wide range of applications, from dairy and juice to plant-based products and sauces, it ensures effective pasteurization and UHT treatment of both low and high viscosity liquids.
With capacities ranging from 200 to 60,000 liters per hour, this modular design facilitates easy customization to meet specific production requirements, allowing integration within existing processing lines. Its energy-efficient features, including the patent-pending Q corrugation, reduce electricity costs by up to 40%, and product-to-product heat recovery lowers overall energy consumption. Constructed with floating tubes, the exchanger minimizes food safety risks and simplifies maintenance and inspection. Available with options for 3-A and EHEDG certifications, it complies with stringent hygiene standards and offers customizable features to adapt to varying operational needs.
