Stainless steel plate exchangers are heat exchangers used in food applications to prevent issues such as bacterial growth. Unlike regular plate exchangers, stainless plate exchangers perform heat transfer in a hygienic manner, making them a popular choice in the food sector. These systems are most commonly used in the dairy industry for heating and cooling processes.
Plate exchangers fundamentally consist of two inlet ports, channeled heat transfer plates, and two outlet ports. Two of these ports are for the entry and exit of the heating fluid, and the other two are for the entry and exit of the fluid to be heated. It is also possible to construct exchangers with more than one heating or to-be-heated fluid through special production.
The function of the plates inside a plate exchanger is to transfer heat from the heating fluid to the fluid to be heated without mixing the fluids. The channeled structure of these plates enables the fluid to move in a highly turbulent manner. This turbulence causes a more homogeneous heat distribution, which leads to more efficient heat transmission.
Also known as pasteurization exchangers, these exchangers ensure homogeneous pasteurization by evenly distributing milk across their special stainless surfaces. Although milk is the first food product that comes to mind when mentioning a pasteurization exchanger, these exchangers are also used in the production of other dairy products and many different foods. Some of these include:
