We support you in foodstuff and drink engineering applications with the following products:


Beverage coolers
Vapour condensers
CO² condensers
Vegetable oil pre-heaters

Beverage coolers
The apparatus can be cleaned without releasing the media connection, have a compensator to accept expansion when being heat cleaned (CIP cleaning) and can be supplied with diffusion-proof, fully welded insulation. Other versions include pump operation or submerged operation with added or integrated separator. Those parts that come into contact with the beverage are made entirely of stainless-steel.  

  Picture: This beer cooler, with a power of 850 kW, was supplied through Sabroe to the CCU brewery in Chile. It has a diameter of 1200 mm and chills beer at an evaporation temperature of -3°C from +1.5 °C down to -1.5 °C.

Vapour condensers
When vapour condensers are used, the vapours contained in the gas flow are re-condensed. One effect of this is to reduce the odour released into the surroundings when performing, for instance, industrial frying. In addition to this, heat is recovered at different temperature levels. 

Picture: This equipment (2 units) is used by McCain in the USA and in Canada to reduce odours and to recover heat. The power of each unit is 3640 kW; 174 m3 of water are heated each hour from 75°C to 93°C. A large proportion of the energy used in the frying process is used to evaporate the excess water out of the potatoes. The rising vapours represent a considerable store of energy at a useful temperature level (up to 95°C). The equipment is fitted with an integrated tube cleaning system which operates by spraying cleaning agents over the tube floor.
