Product Overview
Model HTK-PHE-01 plate heat exchanger with a working capacity of 1000 to 15,000 litres per hour, built in SUS304 or SUS316L. It heats or cools product according to the process flow on dairy production lines and fruit juice and beverage processing lines. The plate construction gives high heat exchange efficiency in a compact footprint, with low heat loss and straightforward cleaning and installation.
Key Benefits
- High heat exchange efficiency in a compact footprint
- Low heat loss compared with larger vessel based heating
- Plates can be added or removed to change duty
- Capacity from 1000 to 15,000 litres per hour
- Easy to clean and install
Problems It Solves
- Energy wasted where no heat recovery exists between heating and cooling
- Heating capacity that limits the line's throughput
- Exchangers too large for the space available
- Units that cannot be opened and cleaned when fouled
Where It Is Used
Applications And Buyers
Application Scenarios

Customisation Options
What Can Be Varied
- Capacity from 1000 to 15,000 litres per hour
- Number of plates and sections for the duty
- SUS304 or SUS316L plate material
- Gasket material for the product and cleaning temperature
- Connection sizes and frame arrangement
Compared With The Alternatives
| Tubular heat exchanger | Plates give better heat recovery in less space on clear liquids; tubular is needed where the product carries pulp or particles that would block the plate channels. |
|---|---|
| Jacketed vessel heating | A jacket heats a batch slowly with no recovery; the plate exchanger heats continuously and recovers heat between streams. |
Use Guide
- Give both flow rates and both temperature profiles so the plate pack is sized correctly
- Specify gasket material for the cleaning temperature, not only the product
- Keep spare gaskets in stock, since they are the consumable item
- Include the exchanger in the CIP circuit at design stage
