Steam Technologies

Strahman began providing the dairy and food processing industries with durable, reliable mixing units and hose stations more than eight decades ago. Today, these sturdy pieces of equipment can be found in many manufacturing plants and processing industries, including food, beverage, pharmaceutical and others, where fast and effective cleanup is necessary.

As a single unit, Strahman’s mixing unit-hose stations produce wash water from the following sources:
• Instant hot water from steam and cold water (M-5000/M-5700 Series)
• Blended hot and cold water (M-159/M-750 Series)
• Hot or cold water (M-156N/M-756/M-758/M-358 Series)

Standard Strahman mixing units are constructed from bronze with internal parts of stainless steel. Most models are also available chrome-plated or made entirely of stainless steel. Stainless steel mixing units and hose stations will not discolor, are easy to clean and are ideal for use in special water applications, including those using ionized or purified water.

Strahman makes mixing units in four practical types to meet your particular needs:
• Wall-Mounted
• Recessed
• Pedestal
• Cabinet

Most Strahman mixing units-hose stations come with a temperature-indicating gauge as an option. Temperature indicating units include an accurate dial-type gauge that
displays, in both Celsius and Fahrenheit, the wash water’s exact temperature; users can easily adjust the temperature by turning the unit’s valves.

Most Strahman mixing units come standard with:
• Stainless steel hose rack
• 50 feet of high pressure water hose
• Automatic, water saver spray nozzle
• Check-valves to prevent pressure from backing up in the steam and water lines if a kink develops or the hose becomes clogged

All Strahman units are exceptionally durable, economical, require little maintenance and mount easily anywhere steam and/or water lines are available.

• Maximum recommended operating temperature for Strahman mixing units-hose stations, and all Strahman products: 200˚F/93˚C
• Maximum working pressure: 150 psi

Eliminate Safety & Burns

Due to the unique steam poppet and water chamber construction in the event of loss of water pressure the steam poppet will automatically shut off thus eliminating the possibility of steam escaping from the unit and potentially preventing operators from being accidentally burnt.
