Plate Heat Exchanger

Plate heat exchanger is the ideal equipment that liquid-liquid, liquid-gas to change heat. It has advantages of high thermal efficiency, small heat loss, compact structure, small covering area, convenient installation and washing, wide range of application, and long service life etc. In the same pressure loss situation, the heat transfer coefficient is 3 to 5 times higher than pipe heat exchanger. And its covering area is about a third of the pipe heat exchanger, heat recovery rate can up to 90%.

Classification of Plate Heat Exchanger

1. according to the plate material: it can be divided into SUS304, SUS316, and titanium plate

2. according to the pads materials: it can be divided into butadiene acrylonitrile rubber (NBR), EPDM, fluorine rubber (TP)

3. according to the piece area, there are 0.15㎡, 0.24 ㎡, 0.65 ㎡, 0.85 ㎡, 1.54 ㎡ and 1.8 ㎡

4. according to the stent material，there are iron stents and stainless steel support

Usages of Plate Heat Exchanger

Plate heat exchanger is widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, electric power, medicine, food, chemical fiber, paper making, textile, ship and other departments, can be used for heating, cooling, evaporation， condensation， sterilization and waste heat recovery.

Structure of Plate Heat Exchanger

Characteristics of Plate Heat Exchanger

1. High efficiency and energy saving: its heat transfer coefficient is in 3000 to 4500 kcal/m2 · ° C · h, 3 ~ 5 times higher than tubular heat exchanger.

2. Compact structure: plates are closely arranged, compared with other types of heat exchanger, plate heat exchanger has less covering area and space, the area is only 1/5 of the tubular heat exchanger.

3. Easy clean and convenient disassembling: plate heat exchanger fixes the plates by clamping bolts, thus making disassembling convenient, can open to clean any time.
