Heat Exchangers for Food & Beverage

Excellent efficiency and flexibility, optimum heat transfer, minimal maintenance…these are critical needs today in the food and beverage industry. Tranter provides these benefits and more with Superchanger heat exchangers that are standards of the industry.

SUPERCHANGER® PLATE & FRAME HEAT EXCHANGERS

Plate and frame heat exchangers provide a more efficient and cost effective means of heat transfer than old, traditional shell-and-tube exchangers. This is particularly true in the food and beverage industry.

Superchanger plate and frame units are the best choice because they give you: (1) higher “U” values typically 3 to 5 times greater than shell-and-tube; (2) a unique turbulent flow design resulting in lower fouling; (3) closer temperature approach capability of less than 2°F, compared to the typical 10°F or higher with shell-and-tube; (4) space savings of 50% to 90% over shell-and-tube; (5) expandability and easy servicing, and (6) quick delivery, since they are made in the U.S.

Superchanger units can also be provided with a Three A stamp sanitary stainless steel frame and fittings.

Tranter PHE, Inc. is ISO 9001 certified, and SUPERCHANGER frames can be ASME Code stamped up to a designed pressure of 400 psig.
