Seafood Company needed hot water on demand
This seafood company replaced a sparging system because it needed to ensure continuous hot water at 120°F for cleaning stations and dish washers. The sparging system could not keep up with the hot water demand and water temperatures often fluctuated out of the safety range.
The company came to Hydro-Thermal needing expertise in heating utility water. Hydro-Thermal custom designs steam heaters, known as EZ Heater®, specifically for utility water heating. This energy efficient 3 way valve heats water to precise temperatures.
The company installed the steam injection heater to heat water from 60°F to 120°F on demand. Now, the cleaning stations never run out of water heated to the required temperature because of the design features of the Hydro-Thermal heater.This 3 way valve features a large turn-down capability and temperature rise, assuring hot water on demand.
Process conditions considered by Hydro-Thermal engineers to configure this system included
| Water flow rates | 2 35 gallons per minute [7.5 l 132 l/m] |
| Water inlet temperature |
60°F [15.5°C] |
| Water outlet temperature | 120°F [48.8°C] |
| Steam Pressure |
69 psig [4.75 bar] |
Unlike heat exchangers or spargers, the Hydroheater® is designed only for your process conditions and unique application.We need to know a few things about your conditions, such as temperature range, steam pressure, and flow rates to size a heater specifically for you.
