Hydron - Model 400 Series -Sanitary Hydroheater

The Hydron Sanitary Hydroheater is a sophisticated heat transfer device capable of 100% heat transfer efficiency and precise temperature control. It employs a unique internal geometry to control the steam injection process. A variable area nozzle/stem plug is used to precisely regulate steam flow. The steam condenses and disperses into the liquid so quickly that hammering and vibration often experienced with less sophisticated heaters are virtually eliminated.

The high steam velocity turns it into a self-cleaning machine, ensuring that internal surfaces will not plug or foul regardless of the product being heated.
