Our gasketed plate heat exchangers combine passion, scientific curiosity and technological expertise. The facts: High efficiency at low operating costs, versatile application possibilities with lower investment costs and maximum flexibility. Our efforts to continuously develop the gasketed plate heat exchanger-series further are aimed at meeting your thermodynamic and hydraulic performance needs and to ensure maximum economic efficiency. Our wide range of plate corrugations, connection sizes, materials, plate lengths and widths enable an ideal configuration according to your exact requirements. Additionally, our gasketed plate heat exchangers come with a maintenance-friendly assembly and sealing technology, ensuring low service and maintenance costs.
Application
Plate Features
Kelvion’s unique plate corrugation pattern allows even flow distribution across the entire plate surface thereby maximizing heat transfer while minimizing fouling rates, plate count, and cost.
Kelvion gaskets work in perfect combination with our plates to ensure worry free operation. Our chamfered opening allows each gasket to settle into position and also prevents the lock tab from being severed. Gaskets can be easily installed without tools or adhesive and self-seat during closing. It takes just seconds to replace a gasket making maintenance quick and easy.
Kelvion’s PosLoc plate design allows the GPHE plates to self-align and tightly seal every time the unit is closed. This feature virtually eliminates plate pack snaking, even if the frame is out of alignment and after repeated servicing. This distinctive feature provides you with years of stress free maintenance and operation.
Even if the medium or requirement changes, there is no greater flexibility. All of the N series plates can be used in the same frame with varying numbers of plates.
Our fully-welded plate heat exchangers make a convincing case due to their minimal size, outstanding thermal transfer coefficients and comparatively minimal investment costs. They are particularly robust and require only minimal cleaning and servicing. Their design advantages come into play especially in areas, in which, in addition to the output, load capacity is also a requirement.
Application
The Platular® fully welded plate heat exchanger’s thermal performance and minimal temperature approach is particularly suitable for exchanges on difficult, viscous fluids or fluids charged with suspended materials, but also for the condensation of vapor under vacuum (steam, C.O.V...). Thanks to the multi-pass design possibilities on each circuit, the Platular® is also well suited for lengthy exchanges.
Advantages
The Platular® is a compact heat exchanger that brings many advantages in terms of the volume of treated fluids and space required for installation. BARRIQUAND has developed 5 types of exchange stream with different geometrical characteristics offering complementary thermal and hydraulic performance levels and enabling a low thermal approach and minimum pressure drop.
