The Polybaffle
Entrainment Arrestor is installed in new or existing Vacuum
Pans (both batch and continuous), Evaporators, Kestner and
semi-Kestner vessels, where there is a measurable sugar loss
of over 30ppm.
ADVANTAGES OF THE POLYBAFFLE
-
Sugar losses
are cut to an absolute minimum
Monitored results in sugar factories show sucrose concentrations
in water leaving the vapour leg of the final evaporation
to be in the order of 3 to 5 ppm. This is equivalent to
15-25 ppm in the vapour leaving the last vessel.
-
The vessel
can be worked at full capacity
The Polybaffle makes
it possible to use a vessel at the rates for which it
was designed without losing product in the process. Polybaffle
Arrestors exert no more than 3 to 5mm water pressure drop
across the Arrestor.
-
Easy to
maintain
A spray of water or
caustic soda when the vessel is being cleaned is enough
to keep the Arrestor in perfect working order. Even without
regular cleaning it is almost impossible to build up pressure
or stop the Arrestor working.
