Product Overview
This plate tube bundle evaporator integrates a semi-automatic PLC control system to simplify operation while maintaining precise control over temperature, pressure, and flow rate. The 50kW heating capacity ensures efficient heat transfer for medium to large-scale evaporation tasks. Constructed from food-grade 304 stainless steel, it resists corrosion and meets strict hygiene requirements for dairy, juice, sauce, and pharmaceutical applications. The compact design with plate tube bundle structure maximizes heat exchange surface area, leading to faster evaporation rates and lower energy consumption.
Key Features & Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between semi-automatic and fully automatic control?
A: Semi-automatic PLC control requires manual loading/unloading and parameter setting, but the process runs automatically once started. Fully automatic systems include automated material handling. Our semi-automatic model offers a cost-effective balance for medium-scale production. -
Q: Can this evaporator handle viscous liquids like tomato paste?
A: Yes, the plate tube bundle design creates turbulent flow, reducing fouling even with moderate viscosity (up to 5,000 cP). For higher viscosity, we recommend optional scraper or circulation enhancement. -
Q: Is 304 stainless steel suitable for acidic food products?
A: 304 stainless steel is resistant to many organic acids found in fruit juices (pH 2.5-4). For highly corrosive media (e.g., citric acid at high concentration), we can supply 316L stainless steel as an upgrade. -
Q: What is the typical evaporation rate for milk?
A: For whole milk (~12% solids), the evaporation rate is approximately 500-600 kg/h at 50kW. The final concentration can reach 40-50% total solids depending on product requirements. -
Q: Do you provide installation service?
A: We provide detailed manuals and remote guidance. If needed, we can arrange on-site technicians at an additional cost. Our team can also train your staff during commissioning. -
Q: What certifications does this evaporator have?
A: Our products are manufactured according to general industrial standards. We can provide material certificates (MTC) and pressure test reports. Specific certifications (e.g., CE, ASME) are available upon request and may require additional lead time. -
Q: How long is the delivery time?
A: Standard lead time is 30-45 days after order confirmation. Customized designs may take 45-60 days. We ship from Tianjin, Qingdao, or Shanghai ports. -
Q: What is the warranty period?
A: We offer a 12-month warranty from the date of shipment, covering defects in materials and workmanship. Extended warranty options are available.
