Refroidisseurs à lit fluidisé vibrant

Is your cooling process delivering uniform product temperatures while protecting material quality?

Achieve consistent, even cooling across the entire bed for reliable downstream handling

Preserve product integrity with gentle vibration and controlled airflow

Improve efficiency with optimized heat transfer and reduced cooling time

Fluidized Bed Coolers

Carrier vibrating fluid bed coolers are designed to cool a variety of products at a wide variation of feed rates. Much like our Vibrating Dryers, Vibrating Fluid Bed Coolers function by passing process air directly through a bed of solids via a perforated plate or another type of fluidizing media. Vibration is added to aid in the fluidization of more difficult-to-fluidize materials. From once-through fluid bed process systems and partially recirculated systems to self-inerting fully recirculated systems, Carrier Vibrating Equipment designs complete customized solutions optimized for process cooling.

Vibrating Fluid Bed Coolers FAQs

When should I choose a vibrating fluid bed cooler over other cooling methods?

Vibrating fluid bed coolers are ideal when materials are difficult to fluidize, exhibit a wide particle-size distribution, or require gentle handling. The added vibration improves fluidization and ensures consistent cooling across all particles.

How does vibration improve the cooling performance?

Vibration keeps material evenly distributed and continuously mixed, eliminating hot spots and ensuring uniform heat transfer throughout the bed.

What cooling media are used?

Typically ambient or conditioned air. Optional water-cooled sections or heat exchangers can be integrated depending on the process.

Can vibrating fluid bed coolers handle fragile or temperature-sensitive materials?

Yes. Low amplitude vibration and reduced airflow velocity create a gentle fluidized bed, minimizing product degradation during cooling.

Are these equipment energy efficient?

Yes. Lower fluidizing velocities reduce horsepower requirements and improve thermal efficiency compared to other cooling methods.

How precise is temperature control?

Carrier coolers offer tight control over outlet temperature using adjustable airflow, bed depth, vibration intensity, and multiple cooling zones.

Are there multiple cooling zones available?

Yes. Multi-zone designs allow staged cooling for better efficiency and consistent outlet temperature.

Can the equipment be customized for specific materials or processes?

Carrier designs vibrating fluid bed coolers with custom airflow, deck configurations, and vibration controls to match exact material and process requirements.
