Buy Used Wiped/Thin Film Evaporators for Sale
Buying used wiped and thin film evaporators through International Process Plants gives pharmaceutical, chemical, food and beverage, and wastewater treatment operators access to heated jacketed tube evaporators with rotating wiper blades that spread incoming feed into a thin film for rapid evaporation of heat-sensitive or viscous liquids from Luwa SMS, Buss-SMS-Canzler GmbH, Carl Canzler, and Pfaudler.
Heat transfer surface areas span 0.2 m² (2.2 ft²) up to 16 m² (172.2 ft²) across the rotor-evaporator population. Materials of construction span Stainless Steel 316, Stainless Steel 316L, Stainless Steel 304, Stainless Steel Austenitic, Hastelloy C22, Hastelloy C276, Glasslined, and Carbon Steel. Internal pressure ratings reach from 0.5 bar (7.3 psi) up to 16 bar (232.1 psi). Operating temperatures extend from 100 °C (212 °F) up to 398.9 °C (750 °F). A majority of stocked units carry vacuum-rated jackets and vapor heads.
Stocked model lines include the Luwa SMS HM, KH, and MLK rotor families, the Carl Canzler 450/1.8, 600/3,0, and 900/6,5 series, and Buss-SMS-Canzler 450/3,5, 900/6,5, and Sambay short-path units. Wiper blade options on stocked rotors include 316Ti stainless steel with phenol resin scrapers, graphite, PTFE, plain 316 stainless steel, and Hastelloy C276 for corrosive duty.
