At this year’s ACHEMA 2018, we once again presented our MVR Turbo Fan for mechanical vapor recompression. This year, we demonstrated the fan to the audience with a sanded and highly polished impeller, as an example of how it is applied for use in the pharmaceutical industry.

The TLT-Turbo Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) fan attracted a large number of visitors to the booth. Our engineers presented the energy-efficient process in detail to interested visitors representing the process, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

The innovative bearing concept – a hybrid ceramic bearing that is grease-lubricated at the factory and requires neither regular oil changes nor an oil supply – aroused great interest. With this concept, maintenance and thus operating costs can be reduced significantly.

The units are available in two different versions: the basic version includes the fan on a base frame with monitoring sensors whereas the complete package contains a motor and frequency converter. Depending on the application, different stainless steel housings and impeller types can be selected. In addition to the standard impellers made of duplex stainless steel, and models made of super duplex or titanium are also available.
