Scrape Surface Heat Exchanger

A Scraped Surface Heat Exchanger (SSHE) is a specialized heat exchanger designed to handle viscous, heat-sensitive, and crystallizing products efficiently. Unlike conventional heat exchangers, SSHEs use rotating blades to continuously remove the product from the heat transfer surface, ensuring uniform temperature control and preventing burn-on or fouling. It is widely used in food, dairy, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing industries.

Key Features:

Continuous Heat Exchange: Ensures efficient cooling, heating, and crystallization for high-viscosity materials.

Scraping Mechanism: Rotating blades continuously remove the product from the surface, improving heat transfer and preventing product buildup.

Stainless Steel Construction: Made from SS 304/316 for durability, hygiene, and compliance with food and pharmaceutical standards.

Handles High-Viscosity Products: Ideal for processing thick, sticky, and particulate-filled materials like margarine, chocolate, and creams.

Multi-Fluid Compatibility: Works with steam, water, refrigerants, or glycol for flexible heating and cooling options.

CIP (Clean-in-Place) System: Hygienic design allows easy cleaning and sterilization for food and pharma applications.

Customizable Design: Available in single-wall, double-wall, and insulated configurations with horizontal or vertical orientation.
