WAUKESHA VOTATOR II – SCRAPED SURFACE HEAT EXCHANGER

“Votator II Applications”

 

Versatile In Applications

Heat Sensitive Products – Delicate products which are adversely affected by prolonged exposure to heat are effectively processed in Votator® II Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers.

The scraper blades prevent product from remaining on the heat transfer surface by continuously removing and renewing the film. Because only a small amount of product is exposed to heat for just a short time, burn-on is minimized or eliminated.

 

Viscous Products – Votator® II Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers process viscous products far more efficiently than conventional plate or tubular heat exchangers. Product film is continually scraped from the heat transfer wall to induce high heat transfer rates; constant agitation causes turbulent flow and more consistent heating or cooling; pressure drop is effectively controlled by the product annulus area; agitation eliminates stagnant areas and product build-up; and cleaning is easier.

 

Particulate-Laden Products – Products with particulates which tend to plug conventional heat exchangers are handled easily in Votator® II Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers, and the particulates maintain maximum product identify.

 

Crystallized Product – Products which crystallize are ideal candidates for Votator® II Scraped Surface Heat Exchanger processing. As product crystallizes on the heat transfer wall, the scraper blades remove it and keep the surface clean.

 

Food and Meat Processing – Votator® II Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers can serve the food and meat industries in an extensive variety of applications. Whether it’s cooling, heating, sterilizing, crystallizing, freeze concentration, or processing a difficult-to-handle product, the Votator® II is able to meet the most exacting standards.

 

Aseptic Processing – Scraped surface heat exchangers from Waukesha Cherry-Burrell have many applications in aseptic processing, particularly those involving viscous and particulate-laden products. Waukesha Cherry-Burrell has been a pioneer in the development of several types of aseptic processing systems. These systems sterilize food and other perishable products before they are sealed in pre-sterilized containers for distribution by non-refrigerated means.

 

Chemical Processing – the chemical, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical industries can employ Votator® II Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers in many processes, which can be grouped in four general categories.

1. Heating and cooling
2. Crystallization
3. Reaction control
4. Any of the above with aeration or mixing*See SPX manual on Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers located under the Manuals tab
