Titanium Plate Heat Exchangers
Titanium Plate Heat Exchangers are ideal for the heating or cool of corrosive products, such as salt brine or acids. Alfa Laval’s FrontLine and BaseLine (as pictured) Plate Heat Exchangers, as well as industrial units (with painted frames) are an example of these titanium plate heat exchangers.
As an Authorized Distributor of Alfa Laval products, Koss Industrial can correctly size a plate heat exchanger to you requirements.
Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers
There are many types of heat exchangers out there, and the most common heat exchanger for high-pressure applications is the shell and tube heat exchanger. It’s name pretty much give this heat exchanger away, it consists of a shell, which is the pressure vessel, and contains a bundle of tubes inside the shell. Fluid A runs through the tubes, while Fluid B flows over the tubes (through the shell) and then the heat is transferred between the two fluids.
Koss Industrial, Inc. engineers and manufactures shell and tube heat exchangers, also know as u-tube heat exchangers. Pictured here is Koss’ version of a shell and tube heat exchanger, a u-tube heat exchanger model number HXU2.5-6X60.
Cheese Making Equipment
Koss Industrial, Inc. offers a large array of stainless steel cheese making equipment, both new and reconditioned. For example, Koss’ manufactures process cheese cookers, cheese grinders, HTST systems, curd pails, CIP systems, sanitary conveyors, clean catwalks, sanitary floor drains, and much more.
Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers
A brazed plate heat exchanger is basically your “smaller” versions of the plate heat exchanger. One of the main separating factors of plate heat exchangers is that the “larger” ones are separate by gaskets, whereas the “smaller” ones consist of brazed seals at the edges of the plates and the contact points of the plate are also brazed.
There are many advantages to the brazed plate heat exchangers, for example, the heat transfer efficiency makes the unit compact which is easily installed in locations where space is limited. Also, seeing as the design of the this type of plate heat exchangers does not consist of gaskets, it is suitable for applications where the temperature and/or pressure rating is high.
Pasteurization Units
Koss Industrial, Inc. designs and constructs high-quality pasteurization units (HTST, High-Temperature Short-Time) to comply with all USDA and WDA sanitary guidelines. Koss Industrial, Inc. will provide you with a turnkey solution that includes Alfa Laval Plates and G&H valves and pumps with an AC drive to control pressure. You may choose from units that are skid mounted for quick installation and start-up or piped in place.
Because Koss Industrial, Inc. wants to ensure the high quality of their units, they manufacture their own balance tanks, holding tubes, heat exchangers, and panel boxes.
When Koss Industrial, Inc. ships your unit, it’ll be ready to run. Koss Industrial, Inc. will also include a parts manual, wiring diagrams, flow schematics, and operating instructions.

Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are responsible for the heat transfer from one product to another. There are many types of heat exchangers. For example, shell & tube, straight-thru, & plate heat exchangers are only a few of the many types out there. At Koss Industrial, Inc., they design and construct their heat exchangers to USDA and WDA sanitary standards and they are also ASME certified – thereby ensuring you of receiving a high quality product.
CIP Systems
With over 30 years of experience building CIP systems (Clean-In-Place Systems) for the food and dairy industries, Koss Industrial, Inc. will build you a high quality system that’s sure to meet your precise needs and specifications. Koss Industrial, Inc. also builds standard CIP systems, besides custom systems. Since Koss Industrial, Inc. is a custom design and fabrication shop, they can build single or dual (or more) systems to your company’s specifications. With your new system you’ll be able to automatically control the washing of your equipment.
Koss Industrial, Inc. follows USDA and WDA sanitary guidelines for design and construction. Since Koss Industrial, Inc. creates three-dimensional models, you’ll receive a precise drawing of the equipment you’re purchasing.
Koss Industrial, Inc. builds their own CIP units – including the panel boxes, tanks, and heat exchangers – entirely at their factory to ensure they’re building a high quality unit for you. When Koss Industrial, Inc. finishes the project, they’ll ship you a turnkey solution – a complete unit that’s ready to run. They’ll also send you wiring diagrams, flow schematics, and an operations manual.
