Compared with other heat exchange equipment, the features of plate heat exchanger

2023-09-06

Plate heat exchanger is a kind of equipment used in industry for heating, cooling and heat exchange. It is suitable for heating, cooling, concentration, evaporation, condensation, recovery and other processes in chemical, pharmaceutical, food, beverage and other fields.

Compared with other heat exchange equipment, plate heat exchangers have the following differences:
First, efficient heat transfer
The plate heat exchanger adopts the plate structure, which increases the heat exchange area by flowing the fluid between the plates, thus achieving efficient heat exchange. Compared with the traditional pipe heat exchanger, the heat transfer coefficient of the plate heat exchanger is higher, and the heat exchange area required to achieve the same heat transfer is smaller, which can reduce the volume and weight of the equipment and improve the heat exchange efficiency.
Second, compact structure
Plate heat exchanger plate arrangement is extremely compact, can save space and flexible free, can be selected according to the actual needs of the number and processing length, to adapt to different construction sites and process needs, in addition, its maintenance frequency is low, easy maintenance, convenient and fast, than other types of heat exchangers can be more safe operation.
Third, strong adaptability
The plate heat exchanger has the characteristics of strong adaptability, the liquid can flow arbitrarily, the flow rate can reach a high speed of tens of meters per second, so the heat transfer process can be completed in a short time, to achieve a very high heat transfer effect. Moreover, in the working process, the fluid speed and flow change range is large, and the construction flow is adjusted within a certain range to maintain good heat transfer efficiency.
4. Easy to clean and maintain
The opening of the plate heat exchanger is easy to maintain, easy to clean and inspect, and easier to replace spare parts or replace old parts. Of course, the plates and gaskets that belong to its interior also require maintenance, but it is still much easier to maintain and clean than other types of heat transfer equipment.
5. Long service life
Plate heat exchanger manufacturing quality is very good, many plate heat exchangers are made of stainless steel and other materials, can withstand great pressure and temperature, long life, compared with other heat transfer equipment, to avoid equipment failure and downtime loss, more economical.
6. Wide range of applications

Plate heat exchanger is widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food, beverage, power, paper and other industries. Different plate heat exchangers can be selected and customized according to the actual liquid characteristics and process requirements.

In short, the Welded Plate Heat Exchanger has the advantages of high efficiency, tight structure, easy cleaning and maintenance, long service life and a wide range of application fields, and has become an important preparation for industrial heating, cooling and heat exchange domain, not only saving industrial production costs, but also ensuring the stability and safety of production and processing, its market demand will be more and more extensive.

Plate heat exchangers including Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger, Gasket Plate Heat Exchanger, Shell And Tube Heat Exchanger, etc are our main products.
