Model No.: ASD-21
Brand: ASD
North American food processing operators struggle with low heat exchange rates and frequent scaling on smooth-tube steam generators, driving high energy use and routine shutdowns. Our Pressure Vessel Storage Tank integrated layout optimizes heat transfer. This Steam Generator Finned Tube boosts thermal uptake, and Tank Vessel Pressure System works alongside Storage Tank, Industrial Storage, High-Quality Tanks and Durable Pressure Vessels for continuous food sterilization lines.
| Finned Heat Transfer & Anti-Scaling Attribute | Details |
|---|---|
| Heat Exchange Element | Spiral enhanced finned tube bundle, extended secondary heat transfer surface |
| Rated Steam Pressure | Saturated steam at 0.7–1.2 MPa, stable pressure output |
| Heat Transfer Coefficient | 2.1 times higher than plain smooth tube equivalents under same working conditions |
| Shell & Tube Material | Carbon steel shell; optional SUS304 finned tubes for clean steam applications |
| Steam Capacity | 0.3 t/h – 3.5 t/h, modular skid mount available |
| Inspection Deliverables | Heat transfer performance test report, ASME pressure vessel certificate, descaling maintenance guide |
| Application Scenario | B-end Buyer Type | Local Pain Point | Our Product Advantage & Selling Point |
|---|---|---|---|
| Continuous Food Sterilization & Pasteurization Lines | Food processing plant procurement and maintenance teams | Plain tube generators scale quickly and transfer heat slowly; 33% of operating weeks require offline cleaning; sterilization throughput drops | Our Steam Generator Finned Tube improves heat exchange; scaling-triggered downtime reduced by 95%; unit energy consumption cut by 24% |
A Pennsylvania canned food plant used smooth-tube steam generators for retort sterilization. Hard water caused rapid scaling, triggering frequent cleaning stops. Previously, 32.9% of production weeks suffered scale-related downtime with 21 labor hours per clean, costing $37,400 annually. After switching to our Finned Tube Steam Generator, scale-caused downtime fell to 1.2%. Routine inspection labor dropped to 4.7 hours, and annual related costs reduced to $3,920. Built as a compact Tank Vessel Pressure System, it can pair with a Pressure Vessel Storage Tank for peak steam buffer.
Built for continuous food production that demands steady, cost-effective steam supply, this finned tube steam generator maximizes heat capture through extended finned surfaces. Compared to plain tube models, it delivers stronger heat exchange and slows hard-water scale accumulation to protect uninterrupted pasteurization workflows. We offer this unit within our vessel lineup alongside Storage Tank, Industrial Storage and High-Quality Tanks; Durable Pressure Vessels support buffer tanks and auxiliary pressure containment needs.
Q1: Can finned tube bundles be made from stainless steel for food-grade clean steam?
A1: Yes, SUS304 finned tube bundles are available as an upgrade.
Q2: Does the finned design reduce the impact of mineral scaling?
A2: Improved flow geometry slows scale buildup and extends run time.
Q3: Is the whole assembly certified as an ASME pressure vessel?
A3: ASME certification and performance test documentation are provided.
