Heat Pump Vacuum Dryers 

Kerone’s Heat Pump Vacuum Dryers are available in static shelf configurations, where product rests on heated shelves within the vacuum chamber, and rotary or agitated vacuum dryer configurations, where the vessel rotates or an internal agitator moves the product continuously to improve heat transfer uniformity and prevent localized over-drying. Heating within the chamber can be delivered through jacketed shelves, jacketed vessel walls or internal heating coils, with the heat pump circuit supplying conditioned heat transfer fluid or refrigerant-warmed surfaces depending on the configuration. Vacuum levels and cycle profiles are engineered specifically for the product, and solvent recovery condensers can be sized for full solvent recapture where the application involves organic solvents rather than water as the primary moisture to be removed. Where explosive or flammable solvent vapours are present, Kerone engineers the vacuum chamber, condenser and associated electrical systems to appropriate hazardous area classification, ensuring the system is safe to operate under the specific solvent load and concentration your process generates. Where multiple product batches with different vacuum and temperature requirements are processed on the same equipment, Kerone’s control system stores individual recipe profiles, allowing operators to select a validated cycle for each product without manually reconfiguring vacuum set points and heating parameters between runs.
