Vertical scraped surface heat exchanger for food processing
For continuous production that demands consistent texture and temperature control in viscous products, this advanced scraped surface heat exchanger offers enhanced flexibility and minimized downtime, ensuring precise thermal processing for a variety of complex mixtures.
The Votator II Vertical from Waukesha Cherry-Burrell is a high-efficiency scraped surface heat exchanger designed to replace inefficient batching operations with continuous processing for uniform product quality. This equipment features a sophisticated vertical lift system, 3-A, ASME, and PED certifications, and supports dual lift inspections to minimize downtime. It operates by enhancing heat transfer through precise scraping and mixing, suitable for producing a variety of end products such as nacho cheese sauce and moisturizing shampoo. With a heat transfer area of up to 11 sq ft, it efficiently handles viscous products with motor options up to 30 horsepower. Constructed with robust materials like ceramic and tungsten carbide, it ensures durability and excellent corrosion resistance. The PEEK™ blades are metal detectable and reduce maintenance time with a simplified assembly design. Integration into production lines is seamless, thanks to a direct-gear-drive system that eliminates the need for secondary drive components. The unit’s design allows quick disassembly for cleaning, and retrofit kits support installations of existing lift systems, making it adaptable and supportive of diverse processing needs.
