The brewing industry is all about precision - from ingredients to temperature. Cooling yeast tanks is a crucial process in this regard, but what if the cooling system has to operate under extreme conditions? Delta-Temp received just such a challenge from a brewery in Flanders. They needed a cooling solution that was not only efficient, but also resistant to the elements and technical requirements. And as always at Delta-Temp, we gladly accepted the challenge!
Delta-Temp received an interesting challenge from a brewery in Flanders. They were looking for a new 400kW air-cooled ice water machine to cool their yeast tanks. Sounds simple, but it quickly became apparent that there was more involved than we expected. The brewery wanted to place the chiller outside, which presented some complications. Namely, the cooling water had to be cooled to 1°C in order to optimally cool the yeast tanks. In addition, it was essential to keep the glycol mixture used in the chiller separate from the cooling water in direct contact with the yeast tanks. This was to prevent freezing and safety problems. So it was not just a standard cooling issue, but the very challenge that we enjoyed.
Our solution was anything but standard. We installed a heat exchanger that worked in two separate circuits. The primary circuit cools the glycol mixture to 0°C, while the secondary circuit cools the pure cooling water through the heat exchanger to 1°C for the yeast tanks. This provides the necessary separation between the two fluids and ensures safe operation. In addition, we equipped the heat exchanger with a temperature-controlled modular 2/3-way valve to prevent the system from freezing in cold temperatures.
The result? A year of trouble-free operation. The plant now represents the reliability and stability that Delta-Temp offers. Have a project on the horizon? Contact us today!
