Benefits

Opening and Closing in Under Two Minutes 

  • Frame with manual drive system means food manufacturers no longer need to use tie-bar frames in their facility, resulting in a higher sanitary standard, improved speed, convenience, and flexibility.   
  • Reduces downtime for maintenance, cleaning, inspection, and maintenance, allowing the heat exchanger to resume operations faster. 

 

Consistent Tightening Across the Plate Pack With a Powered Wrench 

  • Closing the unit to the proper pitch with a powered wrench means speed and efficiency for an otherwise time-consuming process. 
  • Minimizing uneven tightening of the plate pack eliminates warping or deformation of the plates or excessive gasket compression, which can lead to leaks and reduced effectiveness.
