The Unicus® is a dynamic heat exchanger with a unique heat exchanger
surface scraping that optimizes the exchange area by increasing the transmission coefficient through the combined action of:
a. Reduced fouling on the tube wall (self-cleaning heat exchanger).
b. An increase in turbulence due to the continuous reciprocating motion of the scraper elements.
Benefits
- An increase in continuous working time with a lower number of stops.
- Más competitivo que otros intercambiadores de superficie rascada al proporcionar una superficie de intercambio mucho mayor.
- Less shear on the product than rotary scraped surface exchangers.
- Maintenance of product particle integrity in food applications.
- Lower maintenance costs.
- Large heat transfer areas (up to 100 m2)
Areas of Application
It can be used in different applications such as:
- Meat industry (cooling of chicken viscera, cooling of head and leg mixes, cooling of carcasses, etc.)
- Pastries and Sweets
- Dairy Products and UHT
- Soft drinks and juices
- Fruits and Vegetables
- Prepared/Pre-cooked Meals
- Pharmacy
- Personal Hygiene
- Environmental applications: waste treatment and evaporation
