Brazed plate heat exchanger basic specifications
Brazed plate heat exchangers are effective in process routes using nonaggressive liquids without foreign particles. Brazed plate heat exchangers differ by compactness, absence of leakages and resistance to the loads, low cost, do not require service.
Brazed plate heat exchanger basic specifications
Plates from corrosion-proof steel reliably brazed among themselves as well as on edge. It by 100% excludes the leakage of liquids, as well as their mixture. For brazing material used copper.
Application of brazed plate heat exchangers
- system of heating and hot water-supply in boiler, thermal items, heat supply networks of industrial targets and dwellings, at cottage construction, in ponds, etc.
- condensers and evaporators;
- food-processing industry as coolers or the pasteurizers of milk, beer, etc.
Advantages of brazed plate heat exchangers
- Compactness and economical efficiency
For lack of tightening design brazed plate heat exchangers are compact exclusively, as well as win in weight and cost (up to 30-40%) with reference to shell and tube heat exchangers of the same capacity.
- Work with increased loads
Brazed plate heat exchanger is steady to long high-temperature loads at temperature in feeding pipeline above 120°ะก.
- Simple service and maintenance
Brazed plate heat exchangers require less routine maintenance. Plates surface is cleared usually from pollution only at observable heat exchange efficiency reduction. Clearing is implemented by non-folding method - chemical washing with use of special compositions not destructive plates surface and copper solder. Process of washing takes only 2-3 hours, i.e. break in process route is minimum.
Limitations of use of brazed plate heat exchangers
Condition of application of brazed plate heat exchangers is absence while in service of insoluble adjournment on the surface of plates. As well it is necessary to avoid hit to the heat exchanger of substances which can destroy a copper soldering.
