Heating/Cooling Jacket
Our Heating/Cooling Jacket, an optional accessory designed to enhance your pump’s performance, is used to maintain precise temperatures for your pumped product. This versatile feature caters to both hot and cold requirements by circulating a medium, typically steam or water, around the pump. Integrated into the pump and covering all wetted parts, the Heating Jacket efficiently circulates the heating medium for precise temperature control. It plays a key role in handling liquids prone to solidification at lower temperature, preventing damage to the pump and its mechanical seals. On-demand Electric Heating Jackets are also available.
The choice of pump that will be paired with a Heating/Cooling Jacket is determined based on budget, flow rate, pressure requirements, installation considerations and whether the customer uses an electrically or air-driven pump
Typical applications for our Heating/Cooling Jacket includes:
- Chocolate
- Starches
- Syrups
- Waxes
- Oils
- Margarine
- Butters
- Paraffin
- These jackets are welded to the pump for complete coverage of all wetted parts
- Facilitates the circulation of a heating medium such as steam or water to effectively maintain the pump’s temperature
- Used when pumping products that tend to solidify at lower temperatures or require consistent temperature maintenance
- Can be used to melt solidified products within the pump, safeguarding the pump and its mechanical seals from potential damage
