Pork Processing: Viscera - Hydro-Thermal Corp. Flow Rate: 75-200 GPM Inlet Temperature: 130°F from Rendering Discharge Temperature: 200°F Water Pressure: 60-70 PSIG Steam Supply Pressure: 100 PSIG A large pork processing plant needed to supply 180°F water to critical applications throughout the plant with fluctuating flow rates. The main challenge was to find the true flow rates in order to size the system properly for different variables. The viscera process (removal of internals and wash-out of cavity) stays at a constant 75 gpm but has a variety of hoses, saws and sanitizers which makes the flow range from 75 gpm up to 200 gpm at different times during the day. The primary concern is always maintaining 180°F+ at the point of use to avoid shutdowns and downtime, and secondly, re
