Babcock Wanson thermal fluid heaters prove robust , reliable solution for malting company

Industrial process heating equipment and solutions specialist Babcock Wanson has supplied a new TPC-B Thermal Fluid Heater to Crisp Malt to replace the existing Babcock Wanson heater that has been in operation for an incredible 30 years !
Crisp Malt , a British malting company dating back to 1870 , supplies high quality English , Scottish and Organic malts to award-winning breweries and distilleries across the globe . Crisp Malt combines traditional and modern malting techniques at its sites in England and Scotland . An important part of the process is the drying of the malt . At its Fakenham site , a Babcock Wanson Thermal Fluid Heater has been performing this task for the past 30 years . Having well and truly served its purpose , a replacement was required and the company naturally returned to Babcock Wanson . A new TPC 6000B Thermal Fluid Heater was recommended , based on its reliability , high efficiency and large output .
The TPC 6000B is the largest Thermal Fluid Heater in the TPC-B range . These fully automatic coil type , multi-pass heaters come complete with integrated burner , control system and safety devices . They provide optimal distribution of the heat , high fluid velocity in the exchange tubes and continuous flow monitoring to ensure long thermal fluid and system life and the highest level of safety .
The new TPC 6000B Thermal Fluid Heater installed at Crisp Malt offers several advantages over its elderly predecessor , including improved controls , Human Machine Interface and overall efficiency , plus a considerable reduction in emissions to comply with current regulations .
The TPC 6000B Thermal Fluid Heater was supplied by Babcock Wanson along with new pumps and valves .
Whilst the new heater was being produced , Crisp Malt took advantage of Babcock Wanson ’ s Thermal Fluid Heating system rental service . Two ‘ plug and play ’ TPC 2000B Thermal Fluid Heaters were delivered to site and set up by Babcock Wanson ’ s experienced commissioning engineers to guarantee production .
Following the installation of the new heaters , a full service agreement has also been implemented .
