REFRIGERANT LEVEL CONTROL

PRECISE MANAGEMENT FOR PERFECTOR UNITS

Precise refrigerant management is essential for reliable and efficient operation of Perfector units. Gerstenberg Services provides a complete range of spare parts for refrigerant level control, including optimised float valves, spindles, and housings.

Our redesigned float valves feature a weld-free construction and flexible form, allowing installation on either the left or right side of the unit. Special surface treatments enhance durability and resistance to wear, ensuring stable refrigerant control and long-term reliability.

With interchangeable parts that fit standard Perfector equipment, these improvements make maintenance easier, reduce downtime, and extend service intervals, helping operators maintain optimal performance while lowering the total cost of ownership.

Refrigerant level control: What it does

Refrigerant level control is a critical part of Perfector scraped surface heat exchangers, ensuring the cooling system operates efficiently and consistently. By maintaining the correct refrigerant level, the system keeps temperatures stable, supports uniform fat crystallisation, and allows continuous production without interruptions.

Key components, such as float valves and associated spindles, guides, and housings, work together to maintain a consistent refrigerant level inside the cooling circuit, ensure stable operating conditions for precise temperature control, and support continuous production by preventing overfilling, underfilling, or fluctuations that could disrupt crystallisation.

Properly functioning refrigerant level control helps optimise energy efficiency, improve product consistency, and reduce the risk of unplanned downtime.

Optimised float valve design

The refrigerant float valve is a key component in maintaining stable cooling and consistent crystallisation. Gerstenberg Services has refined the design to improve reliability, durability, and ease of use.

Key design improvements:

  • Weld-free construction: Eliminates stress points and reduces the risk of cracks or failure.
  • Flexible geometry: Can be installed in either left- or right-hand positions, allowing versatile integration into different system layouts.
  • Reduced stress points: Enhances overall reliability under continuous operation.

These improvements not only strengthen the mechanical integrity of the float valve but also ensure smoother, more consistent operation over time. By reducing wear and stress on critical surfaces, the valve can maintain precise control over refrigerant levels, supporting stable process conditions and minimising the need for frequent maintenance.
