Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers (ParaFlow)

Advantages of Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers Compared to Tubular Heat Exchangers

  • Plate Heat ExchangersHigh Heat Transfer
    • Flow efficiency coefficients are 3-5 times higher
    • Up to 98% heat recovery and high efficiency operation
    • They provide faster response times to replace low fluid retention
    • In each passage, the fluids provide fluid flow against each other between parallel passages and gasketed exchangers.
  • Economical and Compact
    • They take up 90% less space, are lightweight and easy to carry
    • e they operate with low volume, they minimize the amount of fluid required, reduce the use of costly fluids in maintenance, and increase reaction times.
    • Low capital cost and assembly expenses
    • Provides high energy gain by reducing energy costs
  • Cleanability
    • Reduces contamination from particles and dirt thanks to efficient design of the heat transfer area
    • mplified cleaning and plate accessibility
    • Suitable for CIP (cleaning in place) use that removes chemical film layers
  • Accessibility
    • Intervention on both surfaces of the plate for inspection, maintenance and cleaning
    • The heat exchanger can be easily accessed in the field
  • Flexibility
    • Modular design offers heat exchanger diversity according to process capacities
    • Multiple tasks and fluid diversity in a single exchanger
    • Easily revisionable according to process needs
    • They provide the most suitable solutions for your applications with a wide variety of sizes and types.
