HRS to showcase viscous heat transfer solutions at Foodex 2020 RRC Launch New Course: NEBOSH Safety Simplified  RRC are the UK’s largest provider of health & safety and environmental management training qualifications, and we are delighted to announce the launch of this new health & safety course. Safety Simplified has been created by NEBOSH and utilises the concept of augmented reality (AR) to bring safety learning to life.  This three day course aims to get every member of the workplace involved in health and safety. The ultimate aim is to drive down incidents by ensuring workplace staff are provided with accessible, practical health and safety training.  Safety Simplified is suitable for those working in every sector, and requires minimal set-up. The courses uses real-life case studies along with numerous safety issues covered in the AR re-enactments, including noise, vibration, desk working, mechanical hazards and manual handling. Learners will also complete a simple risk assessment.  At Foodex 2020 stand T278, HRS Heat Exchangers will showcase its range of heat exchangers and turnkey food processing systems aimed at eliminating heat transfer challenges for viscous food products. Heat is fundamental to the food and drink industry and is widely used in all but the most basic food manufacturing The Safety Simplified course is available now, RRC currently have six UK training centres running this course. It is also available via online study which can be accessed worldwide. In-Company delivery can be arranged and tailored to your company’s specific needs, no matter the location.  training and how it is delivered. Using AR technology helps learners understand the practical reality of health and safety; and workplaces will be able to measure success after training members of staff by driving down incidents, absenteeism and a reduction in illness and injury.’’ Gary Fallaize, RRC Managing Director commented: ‘’The Safety Simplified course will inspire a revolution in health and safety For further information: call +44(0)20 8944 3100:email [email protected], or visit www.rrc.co.uk and processing situations, in sectors as varied as dairy, fruit and vegetable processing, meat, prepared foods, brewing, dietary supplements and more. However, when handling viscous or delicate products, where fouling or shearing can occur, it is imperative that the right heat transfer equipment is specified. In these situations, a scraped surface heat exchanger can pay dividends. TEMPERATURE SENSITIVE INVENTORY STORAGE SOLUTIONS HRS offers two patented technologies for scraped surface heat transfer, both of which are particularly suited to viscous products. The reciprocating Unicus Series is ideal for applications where fouling or low heat transfer is a limiting factor. The gentle movement of the scrapers allows the Unicus to be used with delicate products, such as whole fruit or vegetable pieces, without destroying the product integrity.
