Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers

These heat exchangers are the simplest kind of products available on the market. The technological design is mostly used in heat transfer fields that doesn’t demand an elevated level of security. Some of the key highlights of this type of heat exchanger are as follows:

  • Efficient use of Temperature Differences
  • Robust and Reliable Construction
  • Self-Cleaning design due to turbulent flows

Specifications:

 Operating Temperature Range  -180 to 200°C (-292 to 392°F)
 Operating Pressure Range  16 to 30 bar (232 to 435 psi)
 Flow Rate Range  10 to 600 m3/h (44 to 2 642 gpm)
 Plate Materials  Stainless Steel


Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers

These heat exchangers are also referred to as ‘Plate and Frame’ and provides excellent efficiency transferring heat from one liquid to another, often water to water, or from steam to other liquids. The modular design combines frames, plates & connection to form a range of configurations. Some of the key features surrounding this type of heat exchanger are as follows:

  • Induced Turbulence
  • Temperature Approaches
  • Reduced Footprint
  • Easy Accessibility
  • Highly Versatile
  • Maximum Fluid Compatibility

Specifications:

 Maximum Operating Temperature  180°C (356°F)
 Maximum Operating Pressure  27.5 bar (400 psi)
 Maximum Flow Rate  5 768 m3/h (25 400 gpm)
 Heat Transfer Surface Availability  2 044 m2 (22 000 ft2)
 Temperature Approach Handling  < 1°C (< 2°F)
 ‘U’ Values  2 594 W/m K (1 500 Btu/h ft2 °F)
 Plate Materials  304SS, 316SS (standard)
 Gasket Materials  NBR, EPDM (standard)


Plate and Shell Heat Exchangers

These heat exchangers are based on a fully welded pack that is enclosed in a strong shell structure thereby eliminating the need for a gasket. The unit is ideal when dealing with footprint barriers, extreme pressures/temperatures, fouling/scaling conditions and corrosive attack with liquids, gases, steam and two-phase mixtures. Some of the important benefits surrounding this type of heat exchanger are as follows:

  • Outstanding Uptime
  • Fluid Flexibility
  • Compact and Low Weight
  • Close Approach Temperatures
  • Enhanced Thermal Performance
  • Gasket and Low Fouling

 

Specifications:

 Maximum Operating Temperature  900°C (1650°F)
 Maximum Operating Pressure  200 barg (2900 psig)
 Heat Transfer Surface Availability  2 000 m2 (21 528 ft2)
 Temperature Approach Handling  < 1°C (< 2°F)
 Plate Materials AISI 316L, AISI 904L, 254 SMO, Alloy C22 & C276, Duplex, Titanium gr.1 & gr.11, Nickel, Others
 Shell Materials Carbon Steel, AISI 316L, AISI 904L, 254 SMO, Alloy C22 & C276, Duplex, Titanium, Others

Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers


(a) Flash Steam Recovery Heat Exchanger- EVC

To prevent excess pressurization in the condensate receiver, the flash steam is vented out into the atmosphere. The exhaust vapor condenser (EVC) is meant to recover this flash steam and transform the energy content thereby letting you pre-heat a fluid for a process, reduce emissions, enhance the efficiency of the collective steam system, tone down blowdown of the boiler and lower make-up water & chemical requirements. Some of the important benefits surrounding this type of heat exchanger are as follows:

  • Energy efficient system
  • Minimalistic design (no auxiliary equipment)
  • Easy installation and maintenance
  • Counters Icicle formation on boiler house roofs

General usage areas include deaerator/feedwater tank vent, blowdown tank vent, condensate tank, dryer vents from ‘production side’.

 

Specifications:

 Maximum Allowable Temperature  Shell Side  300 °C
 Tube Side  200 °C
 Maximum Allowable Pressure  Shell Side  12 bar.g   (10 °C to 200 °C)
 6 bar.g   (200 °C to 300 °C)
 Tube Side  12 bar.g   (-10 °C to +300 °C)
 Steam Mass Flow Range  30 to 750 kg/h
 Maximum allowable Water Flow  20 100 kg/h
 Heat Load  19 to 469 kW
 Shell and Tube Materials  Stainless Steel
*Cold hydraulic tests are performed at 18 bar.g for both sides (shell and tube)

(b) Turflow Heat Exchanger

These heat exchangers are compact in design and suitable for a range of fluids including steam across all industries. The unique straight corrugated tube design aids turbulent flow, resulting in high efficiency heat transfer. Some of the important benefits surrounding this type of heat exchanger are as follows:

  • High efficiency with self-cleaning effect
  • Minimal downtime
  • Reliability and longevity
  • Flexible space saving installation
