High-viscosity product heater Thermosafe A

inductionfor the food industry

Honey is one of the many foods that need to be heated to reduce viscosity. LMK Thermosafe Induction Drum heaters have provided the solution for honey processing applications around the world. The THERMOSAFE® Induction Heater causes the steel drum to be heated up directly rather than through radiant transfer, thus optimising temperature distribution across the drum surface for quick and easy Rim Liquefying. Only a matter of minutes of application is required before the entire contents can be emptied with little or no residue left in the drum. Close temperature control can be achieved with the use of a power controller to avoid the development of high HMF content where longer term storage at higher temperatures is required. Designed to heat up to steel 205 litre drums, the unit is simply placed over the drum; physical contact is not required. As there are no radiant elements, the heater remains substantially cooler than the drum being heated, enabling safe and unattended use, overnight if required. The induction coil cannot be damaged by accidental spillage, and personnel can work comfortably in close proximity. Complete access to the drum while heating enables pumps and stirrers to be easily employed. The Thermosafe is IP66 rated, so can be hosed down, even when operational, in complete safety.
