Resource-Efficient Configuration
AirFlow Water-Saving Unit for Oil Cooling
This water-saving device for homogenizers dissipates heat from the transmission body and gearbox using air instead of water, making the operation of GEA machines more resource-efficient.
Combining efficiency with resource savings
Imagine adding value to your utilities savings and contributing to a more sustainable world. Only by choosing a GEA homogenizer.
GEA AirFlow (D&G) is the oil-to-air cooling unit for homogenizers that allows for tangibly reducing the consumption of water for cooling oil. This water‑saving device dissipates heat from the transmission body or drive end (AirFlow D) and gearbox (AirFlow G) using air instead of traditional water‑based methods.
Key benefits
- Efficient oil-to-air cooling unit
- Proved water savings
- Short payback time
Water savings
| Without AirFlow [l/h] | With AirFlow [l/h] | |
|---|---|---|
| Water used for cooling drive end oil | 200 | 0-50* |
| Water used for cooling gearbox oil | 800 | 0-50* |
