Optimize Your Sanitary Plate Heat Exchangers with AGC PlateCheck

Maintaining sanitary conditions and process integrity is critical in food manufacturing and dairy processing. For organizations that have recently invested in high-performance equipment, ensuring those systems run efficiently is a top priority.

AGC Heat Transfer is a partner of Nelson-Jameson and a trusted leader in sanitary plate heat exchangers (PHE) that exceed 3-A Sanitary Standards. To protect your fluid-handling systems and maximize equipment lifespan, the patented AGC PlateCheck process provides a comprehensive, all-inclusive maintenance and monitoring solution.

Comprehensive Evaluation Before Leaks Become a Problem

Relying on reactive maintenance can leave your dairy processing vulnerable to contamination and downtime. The AGC PlateCheck method delivers the thorough evaluation that operators and quality managers need by checking ALL the plates in the unit, as well as the gasket, frame condition, and CIP response. This method is highly recommended by 3A accepted practices for testing HTST (High-Temperature Short-Time) and HHST (Higher-Heat Shorter-Time) systems.

Smarter, Cost-Effective Maintenance for Your Facility

When managing a large volume of new AGC equipment, efficiency is key. The AGC PlateCheck service is designed to minimize downtime. Most units can be checked in just 2 to 4 hours, and technicians can check multiple PHE units in a single day. Cost-effective additional days can be scheduled to ensure that all units in your plant are evaluated during a single planned visit.

Reliability and Precision for Food Manufacturers

If your dairy or food manufacturing facility requires absolute process confidence, AGC PlateCheck delivers:

• Ultimate Versatility: Capable of testing any model unit of any size (not just AGC models).
• Thoroughness: Evaluates every single plate, gasket, and frame component, complete with deliverable reporting.
• Unmatched Performance: AGC products are designed to handle various product viscosities while maintaining the highest levels of safety and operational efficiency.
