Vent Control System (VCS)
Improve Sanitation Around your Preconditioner
The patented Wenger Vent Control System (VCS) is a heat exchanger designed to fit onto existing preconditioners to ensure important sanitation and operating functions including:
- Reduced condensation above the preconditioner
- Elimination of pre-pasteurized fine particulates exhausting from preconditioner
- Reduced risk of microbial contamination in environment around preconditioner
- Reduced pressure in preconditioner that can create material buildup and poor flow
- Patent pending
How it Works
- VCS bolts directly to preconditioner
- Regular cold water supply is used to condense venting steam back into the process
- Water contact also captures fine particulate contained in the steam
- Warm water is discharged and can be piped to a reclaim system
- Water usage typically 1.0 gpm (4 litre/min) or less
- Inspection and cleaning is easy due to top access hatch
- Stainless steel construction
Applications In
- Food Textured vegetable proteins, structured meat alternatives, ingredients, protein crisps, breadings, RTE cereals, snacks, hybrid products, and many more
- Pet Food Traditional kibble, semi-moist, high fresh meat inclusion, treats (long, short, filled, dental) - and flexibility for new products with numerous ingredient options
- Aquatic Feed Floating, sinking, slow-sinking feeds, Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS) feeds, and a wide variety of specialty feeds
- Industrial With Wenger systems, you can create new products for industrial or consumer applications. Whatever idea you're thinking about, Wenger can help.
