CHILLERS AVAILABLE WITH BUILT-IN REDUNDANCY
Ranging from 1 to 15 tons of cooling, Delta T Systems air- and water-cooled process chillers are available with two compressors, two evaporators, two condensers, two water pumps, and two controllers; two full chiller circuits share a single tank connected to and from the process. The redundant chillers alternate between the two water pumps every 100 hr. Both refrigeration circuits constantly run, each at 50% of the required cooling. If one refrigeration circuit goes down, the other runs at 100%. Regularly using both circuits in the cooling process equalizes compressor runtime and confirms the backup circuit is fully functional.

FREEZER HAS DRUM-FREE DESIGN FOR FLEXIBILITY
Suitable for 400, 600 and 750 mm wide lines, the GEA spiral freezer provides freezing capacities of 460 to 3,600 kg/hr of fully cooked products. The GEA ProEdge Drive freezer has a drum-free design that uses fewer components and o ers flexibility in adding tiers. An intelligent system, the freezer synchronizes its drives in all operating environments, while the positive-edge drive limits belt tension and product movement. Up to 14 days of operation is possible without stopping to defrost the unit. Multiple belt widths and layout options are available. GEA | gea.com
COOLER CONVEYOR ELIMINATES NEED FOR SEPARATE CHILLING STATION
Designed to cool products from 1,000°F to 100°F while simultaneously conveying them, the Luxme cooler conveyor features jacketed pipes containing cooling fluid to reduce product temperature, while variable-speed drives enable heat transfer to be increased or varied as required. Available in 4-, 5-, 6-, 8-, or 10-in. diameters, the tubular chain cooler conveyor provides a dust-free environment. Luxme International | luxme.com

VALVE REDUCES SYSTEM COMPLEXITY
Engineered for oil-free chillers and heat pumps, the Danfoss check and stop valve incorporates a damped nozzle check valve, stop valves, and di user function. The OFC nozzle check valve remains open at minimum flow and closes quickly if the system stops generating refrigerant backflow. The lock ring design prevents unintentional ball valve closes. A built-in sight glass provides direct visibility to check valve functioning, while the pressure port connects to a high-pressure cut-out as an added safety measure. The valve can be set up vertically, horizontally, or at a 45-deg angle. Danfoss | danfoss.us
