Krones VapoChill cooling tower

Rapid, reliable cooling is critical to a variety of processes. Whether it’s the brewing of beer, bottling of juices, treatment of products in a tunnel pasteuriser or flash pasteurisation — efficient cooling makes it possible to quickly continue with the product’s further processing and ensure the product’s good flavour.

The VapoChill cooling tower from Krones is designed to meet the cooling requirements in the beverage industry. Built on a modular principle, its design is based on Krones’ tunnel pasteurisers.

The housing unit is made of stainless steel and is also available in the more chemically resistant V4A or AISI 316L stainless steel, on request. The tower packings, which are made of polypropylene, can optionally be treated with a biocide.

The cooling tower has a clean design and also provides good accessibility thanks to removable sidewalls and tower packings. Designed to reduce process water consumption, it also has adjustable control of the fan’s speed based on the desired cooling temperature to avoid unnecessary cooling.

Suitable for any application where process water needs to be cooled, the unit does not have to be combined with another Krones system. It can also be used for applications outside the beverage industry that work with cooling water.
