Sanitary heat exchangers are often required in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Constructed similarly to typical heat exchangers, sanitary exchangers can have special design requirements such as;
- Seal welded of joints
- Polished surfaces
- Sanitary tri-clamp fittings
- TeflonĀ©, Gylon Fawn, VitonĀ© or other special gasket materials
- Manufactured to 3a Standards and Stamped
- Clean in place design
- ASME BPE sanitary fittings
- ASME BPE compliant
Most types of traditional heat exchangers can be constructed to meet sanitary requirements.
