Overview
In the meat processing industry, precise and efficient heating is critical for various applications, including scalding, cooking, sanitization, and rendering. Traditional heating systems like steam boilers or indirect heat exchangers often struggle to maintain consistent temperatures and require extensive maintenance, impacting production efficiency and product quality.
Direct Steam Injection (DSI) heaters provide an advanced solution that delivers on-demand, precise, and uniform heating, meeting the unique demands of meat processing:
- Provides on-demand, consistent heating for scalding, ensuring efficient hair, feather, and skin removal while preserving meat quality
- Enhances energy efficiency with nearly 100% thermal efficiency, reducing energy consumption and operational costs for large-scale processing
- Improves sanitation and product safety by injecting high-temperature steam, sterilizing surfaces, and process liquids to reduce contamination risks
- Reduces maintenance needs and downtime with fewer moving parts and minimized scaling, allowing continuous operation in high-demand environments
- Ensures precise temperature control for quality cooking and rendering, maintaining texture, flavor, and product consistency
- Increases throughput with fast heat transfer, reducing processing times and enabling facilities to meet production targets efficiently
- Provides uniform heating, preventing hot or cold spots and ensuring consistent product quality across batches
- Features a compact, adaptable design for easy integration into existing systems, optimizing space for facilities looking to retrofit or upgrade
NOH™ (Non-Obstructing Heater)
The Non-Obstructing Heater is rugged enough to handle even the toughest abrasive materials, like sand and grit, to fibrous materials and large particulates.
- Its non-obstructive design protects against plugging, fouling, and pressure drop with its powerful, unrestricted flow.
- Volume capability: 30 up to 3,035 gpm [6.8 up to 689 m³/hr]
Solaris®
Perfect for viscous slurries, the Solaris® heater features an optimized straight-through design and low shear flow. It is also perfect for heavy slurries with medium consistency or higher solid contents. The flow diffuser injects steam across the entire cross-section to ensure thorough mixing and a uniform temperature profile, even at a high volume and flow rate.
- Volume capability: 5 up to 25,000 gpm [1 up to 5,678 m³/hr]
Infuze
Compact and fully sanitary cooking skid that helps products achieve finished recipe results, pasteurization, or blended emulsification through 3-A, EHEDG, and FDA certifications.
- Volume capability: 3 up to 255 gpm [0.7 up to 57.9 m3/hr]
Silverline™
The Silverline™ is a polished stainless-steel steel system engineered to replicate specified processing profiles precisely. It is 3-A certified and meets EHEDG, CE, and FDA requirements.
