Food industry processes involve large temperature variations, especially during production stages. As in many industrial-scale installations, thermal energy generated by boilers is conveyed by heat transfer fluids, which must therefore stand up to high temperatures, before being delivered to the system.
Historically, steam has been the classic vector used in many food industry processes for obvious reasons of compatibility and non-hazardousness in case of accidental contact. However, this liquid can represent a potential hazard due to the very high pressure at high temperatures.
Caltherm has specifically developed heat transfer fluids for the food industry and is able to provide a very interesting alternative. These products are anhydrous fluids and ensure excellent system performance even at low temperatures down to -80°C.
Although used at very high temperatures in demanding conditions, Caltherm synthetic or silicone based products remain their efficiency, particularly thanks to their resistance to oxidation, even up to 350°C. The range also offers paraffinic fluids for moderate temperature ranges.
Viscosities tailored to any type of process, high flash points and low toxicity minimizing the risks on the plant : high-quality Caltherm fluids meet all the requirements of the food industry.
