Scrapped Surface Heat Exchanger – VOTATOR

by Waukesha Cherry-Burrell

VOTATOR^® II Horizontal

Votator scraped surface heat exchangers have been replacing slow, inefficient batching operations with more uniform, controllable and repeatable continuous processing.

FEATURES:

The Votator II and the Extra Heavy Duty Votator II replace the Thermutator and standard Votator units, and is also available as a vertical unit.
3A, ASME,and PED Certified

Available in standard and narrow faces
Ease of maintenance and lower cost of ownership
PEEK™ Blades
100% PEEK™ - no filler or inserts
Available in metal detectable version
Integral Gear Motor Drive
Gear drive is directly coupled to the mutator shaft eliminating the need for a secondary drive shaft and bearing block
Overall length of heat exchanger is reduced by 20 - 25%
Easy to maintain and self-aligning
Available with up to 30 horsepower for handling the most viscous products

VOTATOR^® II Vertical

The Votator II incorporates the most popular features of the Thermutator and Votator lines. The unique hydraulic system on the vertical unit makes inspection easy without the use of tools.

FEATURES:
