Different materials need different types of heat exchanger. For the most simple fluids such as water, plate heat exchangers are often sufficient, but as products become more challenging (such as minced meats, spreads or egg-based products), then different types of tubular and scraped surface heat exchangers are required. For those products with extremely high fouling potential, or those which benefit from constant agitation, then the HRS R Series of rotating scraped surface heat exchangers is ideal.
Designed for sanitary food industry applications, the R Series from HRS Heat Exchangers uses a rotary scraper rod which is capable of reaching velocities of 300 rpm, providing high levels of shear and mixing at the heat transfer surface which dramatically increases heat transfer rates. This makes it particularly suitable for challenging heat transfer applications, such as those where the product requires high pressures, has high viscosity, or where aeration is required.
