Principle A plate and frame heat exchanger as known as gasketed plate heat exchanger is a high efficiency heat exchanger that assembled from metal sheets with corrugated pattern and different kind of gaskets. Plate heat exchangers are the ideal equipment for heat exchange between liquid-liquid and liquid-vapor.In the case of the same pressure loss, the heat transfer coefficient is 3-5 times higher than that of the tube heat exchanger, but the floor space is one-third of the tube heat exchanger, and the heat recovery rate can be as high as 90% or more. Maximum volume: 5000m3 /h;Maximum design pressure: 25bar Maximum temperature: 200 celsius degree; Minimum difference in temperature: 0.5-1 celsius degree Nozzle diameter: DN15~DN500;Plate thickness: 0.4mm - 1.2mm Gasket material:NBR, EPDM, HNBR, HT-NBR, HEPDM, CR,VITON/FKM Fixed and movable plate material: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, and others on request. Plate material:AISI304, AISI316, AISI316L, Titanium,Ti-Pa,Hastelloy C276,254SMO,Nickel, AISI904L. Plate heat exchanger High heat transfer coefficient The design of the plate corrugation is aimed at the high thermal conductivity. The special flow path are formed by the plate corrugation causing strong disturbance flow at a very low flow rate, which is called turbulent flow. And the disturbance flow can be self-cleaning to prevent fouling and thus the heat transfer efficiency is high. Plate heat exchanger Large logarithmic temperature difference The temperature difference at the end is small, and the plate heat exchanger is mostly a cocurrent or countercurrent type of flow. In addition,there's no bypass flow. Plate heat exchanger Small footprint and easy maintenance The plate heat exchanger has a compact structure, and the heat exchange area per unit volume is 2-5 times that of the shell-and-tube type, and the floor area of the plate heat exchanger is about 1/2-1/3 of the shell - tube heat exchanger when achieving same heat exchange capacity .
