LT FRESH WATER COOLER Heat exchanger, common used in oil industry,
SS316 0.5mm NBR Plate heat exchanger H17
H17 Operating Principle
The plate heat exchanger consists of a number of thin corrugated
metal plates. The plate corrugations form flow channels for the
heat exchanging fluids and provide strength to the compressed plate
pack. The plates contain ports for fluid inlets, outlets and
interconnect passages as required. Gaskets are attached to the
plates, forming a seal between the heat exchanging fluids and the
surroundings. In the example shown here, the cold fluid enters at
the bottom and the hot fluid at the top.
Frame
The plates are clamped together to a predetermined dimension by the
tie bars between two thick metal slabs: a stationary slab (head)
and a moveable slab (follower). Connections for the fluid inlets
and outlets can be made on either slab. The plates are hung on the
top bar and guided by the bottom bar. An end column supports the
top and bottom bar ends.
Sanitary plate heat exchangers
Frames used for sanitary or hygienic duties are fabricated in solid
stainless steel or carbon steel with stainless steel covering.
Standard connections are usually sanitary tube fittings. Industrial
fittings may be supplied when required. Plates may be either
parallel flow or diagonal flow.
H17 Gasket Parameter
| Rubber Type | NBR | EPDM | VITON/FKM | HNBR |
| Application Temperature | -20°C- +130°C | -50°C-+150°C | -30°C-+251°C | -15°C- +160°C |
| Fluid Media | Water Sea water Mineral oil Salt brine | Hot water Steam Acid Alkali | High temperature resistance Strong oxidants Oil Acid and alkali | High temperature mineral oil and water |
| Feature | Easier to replace than the traditional gasket, high pressure, high
temperature, longer life, should not be leaked |
