Enquiry Form

 
  1. Please answer the following question before any enquiry.

  2. Are you inquiring about a plate and frame type heat exchanger?

    Yes     No

  3. Sorry, we only deal with plate heat exchangers, we cannot help you with other type of heat exchangers such as shell and tube, coil or fin type.

  4. Are you using non refrigerant gas or air as one of the fluid?

    Yes     No

  5. Sorry, we cannot help you with a gas or air application, the fluid used must be a liquid or a refrigerant.

All Welded Plate & Shell

This heat exchanger essentially works in the same way as an ordinary shell and tube unit, but is more efficient because plates have been used instead of tubes. The plates are laser/TIG welded together to form a plate pack, which is then mounted inside a traditional cylindrical shell.

This system can offer substantial savings over conventional shell and tube exchangers due to the efficiency of the plate pack compared to a system of tubes. Operational advantages of the plate and frame heat exchanger include:

  • No gaskets
  • High working temperatures up to 250°C
  • High working pressure up to 25 bar
  • Small liquid hold up volume
  • Small space requirement (takes up only 30% of the space of a traditional shell and tube unit)
  • The plate pack is much more easily serviced and repaired than the components of a shell and tube exchanger.
