PROJECTS Sparger_with_vortex

New Vortex Sparger

WEMS were approached to help increase sparging efficiency operations at Treasury Estate Wines Wolf Blass site. We developed a 3” full bore sinter and housing to allow gas sparging to occur from the outside in, which allowed full flow of the product. A vortex fabricated on the sparger inlet increases the mixing of the gas. The result for Wolf Blass is being able to control their DO2 and CO2 levels while pumping at 45,000 - 50,000 L/hr in a single pass. This has now greatly reduced the need to rework the product after transferring between tanks.

We have recently released a 2” version and are hopeful to see the same encouraging results from initial trials. All spargers are  available with a choice of end connections. Please contact us for further details.

 

TESIMONIALS

What our customer think of us:

'If it’s stainless, you guys already stock it! And if not, it is usually supplied in a timely manner. Wine industry product knowledge is exceptional.'

Adam Diotti (Maintenance Dept - Orlando Wines)

'Very happy with service, items ordered are completed promptly, all items received are of high quality & keep up the good work.'

Ryan Shepley (Cellar Manager - Richmond Grove)

'We are most pleased with the new catwalks installed here [at Penfolds], and we are equally pleased with the seemingly effortless (and more importantly issueless) installation of these catwalks and demolition of the previous installation.  This has been a very complex and potentially dangerous job, which WEMS have managed and executed extremely well.'

Ross Wilkinson (Project Manager - Treasury Wine Estates)

'From the initial site inspection, through the design refining on the fantastic computer CAD system, which we found a superb way to convert our winemakers thoughts into engineering actuality, and then watching the on-schedule , pre vintage, instillation go smoothly at an already stressful time, we are very happy to be an ambassador for the WEMS quality approach to customer needs and satisfaction. The added bonus is dealing with a local firm 5 minutes up the road!!'
