Heat Exchanger / Condensor – SS
Product Description
Brazed shell-and-tube heat exchanger:
High-efficiency cooling solution designed for heavy duty on- and off-highway use.
This rugged, highly efficient heat exchanger is designed for high pressure and high temperature applications, like transmission cooling. It is manufactured with non-ferrous materials - eliminating thermal expansion problems, as the shell and tube expand at the same rate.
Brazed shell-and-tube heat exchangers can be easily customized to fit specific customer requirements and are suitable for a variety of applications. They provide maximum efficiency, and are able to withstand high flow rates with a low pressure drop.
An advantage of the brazed shell-and-tube design is it`s ideal for applications with different liquid flows. To optimize flow and velocity, you can change the oil velocity (shell-side liquid) by changing the quantity and cut of the baffles. To change the water velocity (tube-side liquid), simply manipulate the multi-tube passes.
AlfaQ™ AHRI-certified plate heat exchangers:
Performance deficiencies in an HVAC system are difficult to detect and can result in much higher energy costs. Certification of components assures the system will perform optimally. The AlfaQ™ gasketed plate heat exchanger range is certified to AHRI 400.
The Air Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) Standard 400 certification is an independent, third-party verification of thermal performance. Through its certification program and standards, AHRI strives to help customers save energy, improve their productivity and help to ensure a better environment.
Performance certification verifies that the product performs in accordance with the manufacturer’s published ratings, and is particularly useful in applications such as district cooling substations, ice-storage systems, data centres and free cooling systems.
AHRI Certification Procedures and Benefits:
To certify a product to AHRI standards, the manufacturer submits specifications and performance data to AHRI for performance evaluation and potential certification.
Once certified, buyers and users can be assured that:
- The plate heat exchanger will perform in accordance with the manufacturer’s published ratings.
- Product performance can be easily compared for their specific application.
Alfa Laval has accomplished a 100% success rate in the AHRI performance certification program for more than a decade.
Cost effective for everyone involved:
End-users:
- Reduces lifetime operating costs significantly by assuring a more energy-efficient system.
- Ensures full investment value by reducing costs for field tests and additional component performance margins.
Consultants:
- Allows for the design of a system in which all the major components are independently performance certified,
- Ensures that targets on power consumption and climate control can be met.
- Provides a verifiable basis for heat exchanger selection.
- Protects the owner and consulting engineer from performance concerns during commissioning and after installation.
Contractors:
- Eliminates field acceptance tests of each component, thereby reducing payment hold-back times after commissioning.
- Ensures that all certified plate heat exchangers included in proposals will deliver the stated thermal performance.
- Reduces troubleshooting time during commissioning and after start-up.
AlfaQ™ Series - the optimal choice:
AlfaQ™ plate heat exchangers are available to meet most heat transfer requirements – whether large or small – and include a three-year warranty, demonstrating our commitment to optimizing the performance of our customers’ processes.
Spiral heat exchanger:
The all-round heat transfer solution.
Exceptional compactness and self-cleaning design make Alfa Laval spiral heat exchangers extremely versatile. Ideal for everything from dirty fluids to high vacuum condensation.
Exceptional compactness and self-cleaning design make Alfa Laval spiral heat exchangers extremely versatile. Ideal for everything from dirty fluids to high vacuum condensation.
Unique shape has unique properties:
A spiral heat exchanger is precisely what it says – a circular heat exchanger with two concentric spiral channels, one for each fluid. The curved channels provide optimum heat transfer and flow conditions for a wide variety of fluids, while keeping the overall size of the unit to a minimum.
Features and benefits of a spiral heat exchanger:
- Fully engineered to meet the needs of every customer
- Self-cleaning effect reduces operating cost
- Low maintenance cost due to easy access
- High heat transfer efficiency, higher than in shell & tubes
- Unique ability to handle two highly fouling fluids
- Every unit is fully drainable
- Condensers have virtually no vapour side pressure drop
- Column mounting of condensers reduces installation costs
- Design experience from more than 40 years of manufacturing
