ATTEC® Systems are designed to meet process industry needs by delivering...

ATTEC'S greatest strength is in the creation of custom-designed system designs that meet your specific process needs. We'll design a system, furnish the skid-mounted piping assembly and provide training and start-up services. We integrate the piping assembly with a customized, PLC-based, fully automated control panel. Your operators can continuously monitor the process at all points throughout the system without leaving the control room. ATTEC designs are readily interfaced with distributed control systems. And ATTEC is always available with technical assistance and support.

While ATTEC systems are designed, built, and installed to the individual specifications of your process, several key elements are common:

1. Integrated customized, PLC-based, fully automated control panel monitors your process at all key points.
2. At the heart of every ATTEC system is a direct steam injection Hydroheater®. The Hydroheater transfers heat by injecting steam at high velocity into your liquid or slurry. This high velocity steam disperses the liquid or slurry into tiny droplets, creating large surface areas necessary for optimal heat transfer. The rapid heat transfer that occurs in the Hydroheater causes the steam to condense and be dispersed into the liquid very quickly, eliminating the hammer and vibration associated with less sophisticated heaters.
3. To avoid special parts and reduce maintenance time and effort, we integrate and install the support components you specify and mount them to a sanitary skid.
