Thermal oil systems are often used to heat ingredients, working between 140-310°C. But over time the oil tends to oxidise and it produces sludge - a problem that CC Jensen claims to have solved.

The dirt, sludge and oxidation deposits in the systems arise due to the very high oil temperature. Contamination also raises energy consumption.

However, Jensen has developed a Fine Filter which can filter in-depth. It has a large retention capacity and removes deposits from the pipework and expansion tank of the system.

The maximum temperature for depth filtration is 150°C and in some systems it is possible to keep the oil temperature within the expansion tank around that level. In other systems it is possible to have an extra tank with controlled temperature purely for oil maintenance.

Another option is to filter the oil directly on the thermal oil system when it is not in operation during weekends or production downtime.
