High Temperature/High Moisture Fittings For Malting Applications
Case Study
During the process of whisky production a critical component/ ingredient is malt. As part of the preparation, barley is germinated in a kiln which has a high temperature, typically 80 degrees and high moisture atmosphere. To improve energy efficiency the market increasingly demands LED lighting and, to date, normal LED fittings fail after a short period of time in the aforementioned atmosphere.
Ecolighting Systems can now offer a robust fitting in LED suitable for use up to 80 degrees and with an IP (ingress protection) rating of IP66. Typically these fittings can last 4 – 5 years, a significant improvement and ROI against the existing solutions. Please contact us for more information
