CUMULUS® FTC Fluid Temperature Control

The CUMULUS® Fluid Temperature Control system is a patented concept for cooling process fluids without the risk of freezing. FTC is a highly effective process that ensures an unprecedented level of accuracy (within 1°C), bringing new levels of predictability to temperature control (even at -120°C).

The CUMULUS® FTC system is available in four standard sizes, covering cooling requirements ranging from lab/pilot operation to full-scale production. With its low initial outlay and operating costs, FTC technology is an excellent investment. Operating costs can be further reduced by reusing pure gaseous nitrogen (GAN).

Built around standard units, CUMULUS® FTC is available at short notice. There is also a rental option for on-site testing and evaluation.

The system’s exceptionally compact design ensures a small footprint, enabling units to be installed in existing facilities and moved around to meet cooling requirements in different locations.

The only moving part of the CUMULUS® FTC is the control valve. This ensures superior reliability and reduces maintenance to a minimum. And a high level of automatic control means precision cooling without supervision.

The units comply with all relevant EU directives (including LVD 73/23/EEG, 93/68/EEG, EMC 89/336/EEG, 92/31/EEG, 93/68/EEG, PED 97/23/EC).
