APPLICATIONS

The B&P tube heat exchanger is particularly suited to the thermal treatment of products with a high viscosity range as well as products containing solids, pulps or fibrous products.

Our systems are designed to be installed as part of heating, cooling and aseptic systems and are used in the fruit juice, milk and brewing industries.

OPERATION PRINCIPLE

The B&P tube heat exchanger is a tube-in-tube system. The operating medium – hot water – is prepared in a hot water pre-heater using steam. A circulating pump is used to pump it into the external tube of the heat exchanger. The product flows in the opposite direction through the internal tube of the heat exchanger module and is heated up to the set temperature by the hot water. Once the water has dissipated its heat, it flows back to the circulating pump to be reheated.

Tailored to suit every efficiency range and the product’s physical properties, our models are sure to include the optimal solution for your specific needs. We also offer individual solutions for specific applications.
