Steam Dosing Unit
The Ottevanger Steam dosing unit conditions product with wet, saturated steam that is flashed to produce superheated, dry steam at the point of addition. This improves heat transfer in mixers, expanders and compactors at a constant pressure, helping raise press capacity while controlling moisture. The unit is delivered as a compact skid with clear installation instructions and service points positioned for fast maintenance. Built with A-quality components, it offers reliable operation and a long service life with minimal downtime.
- Produces superheated, dry steam via steam flash
- Improves product conditioning and thermal uniformity
- Can increase press capacity at constant pressure
- Compact skid, simple to install with supplied instructions
- Maintenance-friendly layout with positioned valves and drains
