Dough Mixers Overhaul and Glycol Conversion
Project Description
This project included the conversion of the existing dough mixers refrigeration system from a “Direct expansion” system to a “Glycol” system, and a complete overhaul of the 2500 Lb. bread dough mixers. The Project achieved all defined objectives and resolved the environmental issues associated with the old system. We provided engineering expertise and managed the project from concept to completion, which included:
The design and construction of an addition to the existing building to accommodate the new Glycol system.
The installation of the new Glycol system, including Glycol tank, pumps, control panel, pipes, valves and tie in to the existing Mixers and compressors.
The complete overhaul of the Bread mixers and replacement of the dough bowls and refrigeration jackets.
The design and installation of the temporary reinforcements and shoring of the existing elevated concrete floor slab during installation.
