Tubular Heat Exchanger VARITUBE(R) SK
Wednesday 11. March 2009 - VARITUBE SK Tubular Heat Exchanger from GEA TDS prevents product deposits!
The VARITUBE heat exchanger from GEA TDS now includes a patented flow device, that prevents the build up of product fibres especially when processing fibrous fruit juices. The new device allows long service times to be achieved even when processing products containing fibres with a length
of up to 30 mm.
The process: flow devices installed at the tube bottom provide additional, jet-type acceleration of the product in the reducer at the connection bend. The flow is then broken at the outside of the displacement device and generates a transverse flow directly in front of the tube bottom plate. This transverse flow now ensures that no fibres can collect on the tube bottom plate.
The result of this development: optimised economic and operational efficiency and increased production stability of heat exchanger systems.
