How an ATTEC System Works

Attention: open in a new window. | Print |

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

  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.
