Condenser-evaporator Plate Heat Exchanger for Food & Beverage Pasteurization Sanitary Design
Product Spotlights
Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory brings you a premium Condenser-evaporator Plate Heat Exchanger specifically engineered for food and beverage pasteurization applications. With over two decades of manufacturing experience since 1998, we have refined our sanitary design to meet the strictest hygiene standards while delivering exceptional thermal efficiency. This heat exchanger is the ideal solution for dairy, juice, beer, and other liquid food processing lines where product purity and equipment reliability are non-negotiable. Our commitment to quality and precision ensures that every unit provides consistent performance, easy cleaning, and long service life.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Sanitary Design – All product contact surfaces are made of 304 or 316L stainless steel with a polished finish (Ra ≤ 0.8μm) to prevent bacterial growth and facilitate CIP (Clean-in-Place) cleaning.
- High Thermal Efficiency – The plate geometry is optimized for condenser and evaporator duties, achieving heat transfer coefficients up to 6000 W/m²·K, reducing energy consumption and operational costs.
- Food-Grade Gaskets – Available in EPDM, NBR, or Viton, all certified for food contact. Gaskets are clip-on or glue-free design for quick replacement.
- Customizable Plate Count & Configuration – We offer single-pass, multi-pass, and U-type arrangements to match your specific flow rates and temperature profiles. Plate count can be adjusted from 10 to 200+ plates per unit.
- Compact & Space-Saving – Compared to shell-and-tube exchangers, our plate design requires up to 80% less floor space, ideal for modern food plants.
- Pressure & Temperature Ratings – Standard designs handle up to 10 bar and 150°C; higher ratings are available upon request for special pasteurization processes.
- Leak-Free Connections – Standard tri-clamp (sanitary) connections ensure no dead legs and easy disassembly. Flange or threaded options also available.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: Can this heat exchanger be used for both heating and cooling?
A: Yes, the plate heat exchanger design is fully reversible and can serve as a condenser, evaporator, heater, or cooler depending on the fluid circuit arrangement. For pasteurization, it is commonly used for regenerative heating and cooling sections. -
Q: What gasket material is recommended for dairy products?
A: EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) is the most common food-grade material for dairy applications due to its excellent resistance to hot water, steam, and mild chemicals. We also offer NBR for oily products and Viton for high-temperature or aggressive media. -
Q: How do I clean the heat exchanger?
A: The sanitary design allows for CIP (Clean-in-Place) cleaning using standard caustic and acid solutions. The smooth surface finish (Ra ≤ 0.8 μm) prevents fouling and makes rinsing efficient. For manual cleaning, the unit can be disassembled easily. -
Q: Can you provide a unit with a specific plate count?
A: Absolutely. We can customize the number of plates to meet your exact heat transfer requirements. Simply provide your flow rates, inlet/outlet temperatures, and allowed pressure drop, and our engineering team will design the optimal configuration. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for a custom order?
A: For standard sizes, lead time is 15–20 working days. Custom orders with special plate patterns or materials may require 25–30 working days. We can expedite for urgent orders upon request. -
Q: Is this heat exchanger suitable for high-viscosity fluids like fruit concentrates?
A: Yes, but we recommend using wide-gap plate designs or special chevron patterns to handle viscous products. Please consult our technical team to ensure proper selection. -
Q: Do you offer warranty and after-sales support?
A: Yes, we provide a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects. We also stock spare gaskets and plates, and our technical support team can assist with installation and troubleshooting via email or video call. -
Q: What ports do you ship from?
A: We ship from Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, or Foshan – whichever is most convenient for your destination. We can arrange FOB, CIF, or DDP terms based on your preference.
