Sanitary Immersion Heater For Loops Of Water For Injection (WFI)

Dpstar has the Sanitary Immersion Heater specially developed for pharmaceutical application. With more than 30 years in this sector, Dpstar has designed and manufactured Immersion heaters for major pharmaceutical companies, and being in collaboration with leading engineering companies, in compliance with the most demanding quality standards.

Within the production processes of the Pharmaceutical Industry, the water is one of the major element for different formulations, cosmetics, lotions and other pharmaceutical products. In fact, water is considered as the main raw material within the applications to produce pharmaceuticals. Water for pharmaceutical uses is not only used as a raw material, but it is usually used for the cleaning and rinsing processes required in the processing plant, being also a regular agent for cleaning of reactors and other pharmaceutical equipment.

Dpstar, as manufacturer of Process & Electric Heating Element is very aware that the pharmaceutical production process of Purified Water, High Purity Water and Water for Injection, as well as the maintenance of production systems, are key factors in the production processes within the Pharmaceutical Industry.

Common Application Problems

As mentioned before, the most common problem of the loops is the maintenance of the physical, chemical and microbiological properties of the WFI. For this reason, the design of the installation must be completely cleanable, drainable and its components must be capable of resisting the rigorous sanitation/sterilisation processes.

Solution by Dpstar

Dpstar offers the following components for the WFI distribution loops: sanitary immersion heater, centrifugal pump, regulating diaphragm and point of use valves, check valves, overflow valves that comply with the highest requirements of hygiene in the pharmaceutical industry. Loops can be totally automated with SCADA systems and also validated.

Sanitary immersion heaters are frequently used in the medical, food and process industries, where strict cleanliness requirements must be meet in the utilisation process. As they are being manufactured, it is crucial that the heating element and flange do not develop a scratched or rough surface. It must not be possible for dust or other type of dirt to collect on a heating element or flange. Our sanitary immersion heaters are manufactured with only a flange for a clamp connection and they are electropolished before delivery to make the heating element as smooth as possible.

Specifications and Sizing

Dpstar’s sanitary immersion heaters come with a roughness grade that is equal to or less than 0.4 µm. Welds and the first 200 mm of the heating element will have a higher roughness grade, however. Sanitary immersion heaters are available with built-in thermostat.

Our innovative engineers are able to create a Sanitary Immersion Heater that is perfect for your demanding facility. At Dpstar, we work closely to meet all your needs. With our various shapes, sizes, and specifications, we are confident that we will be able to make a high-quality product that you will love.

Applications of Flange Immersion Heater

Flanged immersion heater is one of the most widely used methods for heating gases and liquids (such as water, oil, heat transfer fluid and corrosive solutions). The direct immersion method is energy efficient and easily monitored and controlled. They are easy to install and maintain to provide heat for many processes such as designed for use in tanks and pressurized vessels.
