Plate Heat Exchangers

An Accu-Therm^® plate heat exchanger lets you use your existing water supply to precool warm milk before putting it in your milk cooler. The Accu-Therm will cut the operation time of your refrigeration system up to 50% and save energy and money while enhancing your milk quality.

Mueller Accu-Therm plate heat exchangers consist of a series of stainless steel plates compressed in a frame. The plates are separated by gaskets that form flow channels on opposite sides of each plate. Cool water flows down the channel on one side while warm milk flows up the other side. The milk's temperature drops as it transfers its heat to the cool water on the opposite side of the plate. The plate heat exchanger's design provides extremely efficient performance for fast precooling.
