Hygienic heat exchangers- versatile and efficient

The Alfa Laval FrontLine and Alfa Laval BaseLine gasketed plate heat exchangers minimize the total cost of ownership and maximize profitability. These hygienic heat exchangers feature a versatile design while offering high heat transfer efficiency, delivering superior value to owners and operators across a broad range of hygienic industries from food to personal care.

High efficiency and versatile design make the Alfa Laval FrontLine and BaseLine gasketed plateheat exchanger (GPHEs) solid choices for a wide range of hygienic heat transfer applications. The premium Alfa Laval FrontLine range is the clear choice for demanding hygienic applications, for applications that require gentle product handling, and for heat-sensitive media or media containing particles and fibers. The Alfa Laval BaseLine range is a competitive heat exchanger for less demanding hygienic processes and utility applications.

 

Engineered for hygiene, versatility and efficiency

The plate-and-frame construction of the Alfa Laval FrontLine and BaseLine hygienic heat exchangers makes design and configuration of the units for various applications both easy and flexible. Both heat exchangers are available with two different plate types:

·         The standard Chevron-type plate, which is used in a wide range of applications, provides good product distribution as well as high thermal efficiency making it ideal for pasteurization of milk and cheese milk.

·         The Gemini double wall plate consists of two plates pressed together, which prevents the cross contamination of fluids in the event of leakage through the plates. Gemini plates are not welded, making it easy to open and inspect them during service.

In addition to these two plate types, the Alfa Laval FrontLine range also offers the Alfa Laval Wide Stream Plate for products that contain particles and/or fibers, making it ideal for processing juices.

 

Easy to maintain, long service life

The plates of Alfa Laval FrontLine and BaseLine heat exchangers are easy to clean, thereby increasing production output. Both heat exchangers feature FDA-compliantglue-free gaskets, which prolong plate service life and boost uptime.

High heat transfer efficiency and flexible design are what customers can expect from the Alfa Laval FrontLine and BaseLine gasketed plate heat exchangers. These two hygienic heat exchangers optimize process performance thereby providing sound, climate-smart and sustainable operating economy.

 

Broad range of hygienic gasketed heat exchangers

Part of a broad range of Alfa Laval gasketed plate heat exchangers, the Alfa Laval FrontLine and BaseLine ranges are suitable for use wherever hygienic applications are critical to efficient, energy-saving processes. This includes the food, dairy, beverage, home and personal care, biotech and pharmaceutical industries, providing owners and operators with peace of mind.

Self Priming Centrifugal Pump Manufacturers - Alfa Laval

Image
The cost-effective LKH pumps are used for evaporation, high-pressure, self-priming and high-purity applications. Alfa Laval as a  centrifugal pump manufacturers focuses on initial cost and the self-priming MR pump, used for CIP return applications. The UltraPure versions meet requirements in pharmaceutical industries and are supplied with Alfa Laval Q-doc, a documentation package providing transparency of sourcing, production and supply chains, and full traceability of all changes in material, procedures or spare parts. For higher pump efficiency and big energy savings, choose the Alfa Laval LKH Prime self-priming pump. Advanced design with air-screw pump technology makes handling Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) duties containing entrained air as well as pumping process media easy. This reduces capital investment. Like the Alfa Laval LKH pump range, the LKH Prime meets the most stringent requirements in the food, dairy, beverage, home and personal care industries. An extended performance ...

3 strategic advantages of the Alfa Laval welded plates heat exchanger

Image
Choosing equipment to transfer the fluid heat in production processes are vital for the performance and efficiency of our customers. Our strong alliance with Alfa Laval guarantees not only prime quality heat exchangers, but also the support of the leading manufacturer. Apart from the brand’s worldwide recognition, we advocate for what the benefit of choosing an Alfa Laval heat exchanger means to our customers.   What is a heat exchanger used for? This equipment is gaining a field in the refrigeration industry thanks to its versatility and efficiency. Even though industrial applications are very diverse, the solutions it offers are pretty concrete: ·          Transfers temperature from one fluid to another, heating a cold fluid through a higher temperature fluid. ·          Reduces a fluid’s temperature through a lower temperature one, helping cool the fluids involved in the productive chain....

Bulker-fit configuration for Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 matches differentiated ballasting/deballasting flows

  Bulk carriers can now benefit from an Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 bulker-fit configuration, which is specifically adapted to their flow needs. The bulker-fit configuration offers savings in footprint, installation, OPEX, and especially CAPEX, yet it retains the high performance, easy operation, and global service coverage PureBallast 3 is known for. A growing number of ship owners are choosing UV ballast water treatment over electrochlorination, even for large ballast water flows. Today’s UV treatment competes easily on footprint and energy consumption, which makes advantages like chemical-free operation, zero corrosion risk, and efficiency at low salinities and temperatures even more attractive. Until now, however, the move towards UV has been less noticeable among bulkers. “Bulkers have a unique ballasting and deballasting profile because they load and unload at significantly different rates,” says Peter Sahlén, Head of Alfa Laval PureBallast. “The PureBallast 3 bulker-fit configu...
