The stainless steel casing consists of separate chambers with 3 interconnected heat exchanger installations and inspection openings. The apparatus is used in a facility manufacturing aspirin. Smooth interior surfaces are essential to comply with pharmaceutical hygiene requirements. Due to very low-pressures, strength calculations are performed to calculate and ensure the stability of the casing. For verification a pressure and leakage test is conducted during the final inspection.
