The system package for heating
fermentation tanks
System advantages
– surface up to 50 % higher
maximum heat transfer through
optimized wall thickness
– pipe profile with optimized
thermal and hydrodynamic
characteristics
– great flexibility; easily deforma-
ble, small bending radii
– can be laid in long lengths
– highly economical with
corrosion-resistant materials
– prevention of calcification
through turbulent water flow
– quality assurance through
helium testing
– “endless manufacture”
– high mechanical load capacity
BIOFLEX corrugated piping
BIOFLEX is a single-walled
corrugated piping system made
of stainless steel. The key con-
structional element of these pipes
manu-factured at our works in
long lengths is the helically corru-
gated pipe.
Connector technology
Optimized connections and fit-
tings enable the pipes to be cou-
pled to all standard connections.
A flameless graphite packing
technology (GRAPA) is used here.
This easy-to-fit connector system
enables time-savings on installa-
tion work without welding.
Maximum heat exchange
without calcification
Vortices are formed in the heli-
cally corrugated pipe. These keep
the water in a constant state of
turbulence and exchange. The
core current is heterodyned by a
swirl component formed by the
pipe geometry, which creates
additional vortices. On the one
hand this generates maximum
heat exchange while on the other
it prevents calcification.
