Scraped Surface Heat Exchangers
Contherm® scraped surface heat exchangers are robust, high-performance solutions for demanding heating and cooling duties across sectors such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and personal care. Unlike traditional heat exchangers, these systems are engineered to handle viscous, crystallizing, or particulate-rich materials, making them ideal for challenging applications.
Alfa Laval’s rotating scraping technology reduces fouling during operation, which maintains high thermal efficiency while ensuring gentle product handling. This is especially important for shear-sensitive or sticky formulations, where maintaining product integrity is critical. Compared to a static scraped heat exchanger, Contherm® provides a larger flow area and reduced pressure drop, maximizing uptime and process reliability
SRU
The Alfa Laval SRU rotary lobe pump is a positive displacement pump for gentle handling of sensitive process fluids in demanding hygienic applications. High-precision rotors and low-shear, low-pulsation pumping action ensure reliable, continuous performance and superior energy efficiency. Its contamination-proof design ensures compliance with the most stringent hygienic design standards and the requirements for Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) and Sterilization-in-Place (SIP) validation.
SX UltraPure
The Alfa Laval SX UltraPure Rotary Lobe Pump is designed with optimized pump head geometry and multi-lobe rotors to ensure low-shear operation with minimum pulsation. This makes the SX UltraPure the best choice for maintaining the integrity of delicate products in high-purity applications. The pump is designed according to the most stringent hygienic design standards and with verified, effective Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) and Sterilization-in-Place (SIP).
