The design simplicity of Scanjet’s spray- and jet-heads provides efficient operation and ease of maintenance that have already been welcomed in various distilleries and breweries in the UK. Duncan Marshall, former MD of Scanjet UK and now Global sales director for Scanjet said, “I have been working closely with IPTL on several projects and appointing them as our UK representative was the natural next step.” Peter Riddell, Director at IPTL said, “I have been impressed with the reception that the Scanjet products have received since their UK introduction, with users’ comments on their cleaning efficiency and cost effectiveness being commonplace.” Arran Brewery’s new Scottish malt handling facility is now operational on the Island of Arran. Capable of handling 66 tons of Scottish malt, the new malt handling storage and milling equipment is now on line. At the other end of the process a new bottling line is nearing its speed trail phase of commissioning with an ability to bottle 1,000 bottles an hour of Arran beers. Arran Brewery managing director, Gerald Michaluk, said, “It was not been without its challenges and we have had a lot of issues with the bottling line but none the less we are up-and-running and I have to thank Burning Sky Brewery, who own a similar machine, for their help in finally getting our bottling machine on the rails. “By contrast Bulk Storage & Process Systems Ltd (BSPS) who installed our malt mill and their malt handling and weighing facilities have been very good to work with and despite a few problems in the early runs the system is now running well.” Pictured right - Collinson silos and all the internal milling and handling equipment for Arran were supplied by BSPS Alfa Laval SRU rotary lobe pumps are carefully engineered to provide reliable performance, trouble-free operation and superior energy efficiency for demanding applications in the dairy, food, beverage, personal care and pharmaceutical industries. It is an ideal choice for duties that require contamination-free pumps to meet high standards of hygiene, low-shear and low-pulsation operation. This pump handles both Cleaning-in- Place and Sterilization-in-place, and can be supplied with thorough documentation to support rigorous validation requirements. Alfa Laval SRU rotary lobe pumps are designed with features that maximize performance and minimize the risk of contamination. These include a defined compression front cover sealing, rotor nut retention design, drainable pump head and ultra-clean surface finishes. Understanding of flow patterns is vital to ensure high efficiency fluid transfer with low pulsation, low shear and low noise characteristics. Alfa Laval employs Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to establish exact geometry for the rotors and rotor case. To deliver reliable operation and low maintenance the SRU features a robust gearbox construction with heavy-duty shafts, torque locking assemblies and taper roller bearings throughout. Certification, specification and standards Alfa Laval SRU rotary lobe pumps comply with EHEDG, 3-A, 3.1 and FDA hygienic standards and have ATEX approval for use in explosive environments. Alfa Laval is a leading global provider of specialized products and engineering solutions based on its key technologies of heat transfer, separation and fluid handling. The company’s solutions help to heat, cool, separate and transport products in the beverages industry, amongst others. 16 BREWING & BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES BUSINESS Energy efficient pumping New malt handling facility for Arran bulksystems.co.uk For more information visit: www.integprotec.com For more information visit: News PRODUCTION EQUIPMENT www.alfalaval.com For more information visit: 16_Layout 1 12/02/2017 09:30 Page 1
