Sanitary Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers

Optimized for Pharmaceutical, Biotech and sanitary processes

Life Science Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers are engineered to meet the demanding thermal, hygienic, and regulatory requirements of pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing. Designed for low-flow applications, these compact, high-efficiency exchangers deliver precise temperature control while maintaining clean, drainable flow paths essential for validated processes. Built to ASME-BPE guidelines, each unit features high-quality surface finishes to support CIP/SIP operations, minimize product hold-up, and reduce contamination risk. Superior thermal performance improves heat transfer efficiency, lowering energy consumption, reducing system load, and delivering measurable return on investment through long-term operating cost savings and process reliability.

Design Features & Benefits

Compact, sanitary designs engineered for safety, sterility, and sustainability.

Compact Design

Maximum heat transfer in the smallest footprint to maximize skid space and throughout.

Material Versatility

316L SS, Hastelloy®, Inconel®, Titanium, Silcotek,1.4435 SS and SiO₂/HCVD coatings—matched to your media and corrosion profile.

Maintenance-Free

A gasket-free design with a fixed tube bundle helps minimize extractables and supports reliable, low-maintenance operation.

Surface Finish

Standard Surface Finish of 20µin (0.5µm) Ra and can be upgraded to a superior 15µin (0.38µm) Ra for even greater cleanliness.

Precision Thermal Performance

Optimized heat transfer design ensures tight temperature control with high efficiency, reducing energy consumption while maintaining process stability.

Double Tubesheet

Prevents cross-contamination between working fluids and product streams, meeting ASME-BPE double tube sheet standards for assured purity in regulated processes.

Clean in Place

Designed for effective clean-in-place (CIP), sanitary heat exchangers support repeatable cleaning cycles without disassembly, maintaining hygienic conditions and process reliability.
