Product Overview
The Gausin Plate Type Evaporator uses corrugated stainless steel plates as heat transfer surfaces. Steam and process liquid flow in alternate channels for efficient, compact evaporation.
Low hold-up volume makes this design attractive for hygienic dairy and food processes where product quality and fast changeover matter. Gasketed or fully welded plate packs are offered based on application.
Integrated CIP circuits and compact footprint reduce plant space and cleaning time compared to large calandria evaporators. Optional Thermo Vapour Recompressor (TVR) integration compresses effect vapour for reuse as heating steam, improving steam economy on multi-effect plate evaporator systems.
Plate Heat Exchange
Corrugated plates deliver high heat transfer coefficients.
Compact Footprint
Significantly smaller than tube evaporators of same duty.
Low Hold-Up
Minimal product inventory in system at any time.
CIP Ready
Designed for automated clean-in-place cleaning.
Multi-Effect
Plate effects stacked for steam economy.
Thermo Vapour Recompressor (TVR)
Optional TVR uses motive steam in a steam jet ejector to compress low-pressure vapour for reuse as heating medium, reducing live steam consumption.
Hygienic Design
Food-grade materials and finishes for dairy applications.
