HEAT EXCHANGERS
UNIQUE PARALLEL PLATE CONSTRUCTION
HIGH PERFORMANCE
STAINLESS STEEL USE WHEREVER HEAT TRANSFER BETWEEN FLUIDS IS REQUIRED
MATERIAL: 304 STAINLESS STEEL (STANDARD)
316 STAINLESS STEEL (OPTIONAL)
FABRICATION: ALL T.I.G. WELDED
MAXIMUM OPERATING TEMPERATURE: 500 F
MAXIMUM WORKING PRESSURE: 150 PSI
DESIGN FEATURES
Our Heat Exchangers are a compact unit designed to maximize the heat transfer area between the fluid from heat source and the fluid to be heated. This is achieved through unique parallel plate construction which narrows flow path of both fluids down to boundary layer thickness of the fluids (eliminating wasted center core of fluid that is pumped through but not heated in standard tube and shell heat exchangers). Model number 2.0, 3.5, 5.0, and 10.0 of our Heat Exchanger indicates the square feet of surface to which the fluid to be heated contacts. Also, full counter flow of fluids is achieved - see path of fluids in schematic below.
CONSTRUCTION
The all stainless steel construction of our Heat Exchangers eliminates normal corrosion problems associated with standard heat exchangers. The end connections are standard pipe thread with inlet and outlet on the same end which simplifies installation. The units are a rectangular shape and easily insulated by adhesive bonding or banding on insulation around the exchanger when in place.
APPLICATIONS
Our Heat Exchangers have been widely used in the solar industry for transferring heat from solar collectors to domestic hot water, space heating storage tanks, hot tubs, and swimming pools. They have also been installed on gas and oil fueled boilers. Range of application has been from the model 2.0 used with three 4x8 solar collectors to the model 10.0 handling the output of three 150,000 BTU/HR gas fired boilers. Some heat exchangers have been used for heat removal from cooling fluids in the construction industry.
COST
Our High Performance Heat Exchangers are priced competitively with any similar size heat exchangers available. 5 year limited warranty on materials and workmanship.
