Case Study Spotlight: We recently received a service call from one of our customers, experiencing flow disruption with their Mouvex SLS2 eccentric disc pump system. The flow of their jam was failing to reach the designed flow rates.🍓

🔎After a thorough inspection, our ITS Servicing & Maintenance team pinpointed the issue: the pipework from the IBC to the inlet was restricting flow to the pump.

Our solution:

  • 🔧We increased the pipework diameter from the IBC to the inlet.
  • 🔄We also reconfigured the inlet by rotating it 90 degrees to optimise the flow.

The result? An instant improvement—restoring the jam’s flow to its designed capacity.

Another problem was solved by ITS Servicing, resulting in another happy customer!

With the Hygienic WideGap, we introduce the first plate heat exchanger that can be used instead of a shell & tube to handle highly fibrous fluids in hygienic applications. 🥫🍅

Pulp-filled juices, purées, crushed tomatoes, dressings or even plant-based beverages? Present no challenge for the Hygienic WideGap!

Available in the UK through Industrial Trading Solutions as the Alfa Laval Master Distributor, these heat exchangers offer unparalleled benefits tailored to the unique demands of hygienic applications.

What Makes Alfa Laval Wide Gap Heat Exchangers Stand Out?

1.Wide Gap Design for Sensitive Products

The wide gap between plates in these heat exchangers is ideal for processing products that are sensitive, fibrous, or have large particulates. This ensures a gentle and efficient heat transfer process while maintaining the integrity of your product.

2.Hygienic Excellence

Built with advanced materials and a focus on seamless cleaning, Alfa Laval Wide Gap Heat Exchangers are designed to meet stringent hygiene standards. Their smooth surfaces and unique gasket systems minimise the risk of contamination, making them perfect for CIP (Clean-in-Place) operations.

3.Efficient and Customisable

Whether you’re working with high-viscosity liquids or challenging processing conditions, these heat exchangers are engineered for flexibility and efficiency. They deliver optimal heat transfer performance while reducing energy and water consumption, supporting your sustainability goals.

4.Durability and Reliability

Alfa Laval’s reputation for quality ensures these exchangers are built to last, even under demanding operating conditions. Their robust design reduces downtime, increasing productivity and reliability in your processing environment.

5.Trusted by Industry Leaders

From dairy production to brewing, Alfa Laval Wide Gap Heat Exchangers are the trusted choice for businesses aiming to maintain product quality and meet regulatory compliance standards.
