Hipex has developed the Mixchanger heat exchanger which is suited for heating and cooling viscous food and chemical products. The heat exchanger's design delivers performance unobtainable by conventional tubular heat exchangers. The clearance within the Mixchanger enables large particulates to be handled without blocking or significant loss in efficiency. Its distinctive continuous mixing capability provides a much greater rate of heat transfer than can be achieved with other types of heat exchanger.
The Hipex Mixchanger is suited to products such as: tomato paste, orange concentrate, jam, yoghurt fruit, chocolate spread, dairy dessert, custard, vegetable puree, milk concentrate, rice pudding, pasta sauce or mango puree.
The Hipex Mixchanger is particularly effective when heating viscous products. It achieves high heat transfer coefficients where traditional methods of promoting turbulence have become inefficient. Unlike scraped surface heat exchangers, the Mixchanger has no moving parts.
The central mixing element ensures continuous mixing; improving heat transfer and reducing pressure loss. With no moving parts, maintenance is minimal so there are fewer production hold-ups.
The Mixchanger can be configured to suit particular process requirements.
