The SHIELD plate and shell heat exchangers are advanced, high-efficiency devices designed for demanding applications. Utilising innovative heating plates, these exchangers offer superior performance compared to traditional shell and tube exchangers. They are particularly suited for high-pressure and high-temperature operations.
Typical applications include:
| Description | Data |
|---|---|
| Max Temperature (°C) | 250°C |
| Max Pressure | 650 PSI (45 Bar) |
| Material | Stainless Steel 316L (1.4404), Titanium, Hastelloy C-276, steel 25SMO, Duplex LDX 2101 and 2304, Copper, Carbon Steel |
| Intended Media | Water, Propylene Glycol Solutions, Group 2 Fluids |
Reinforced Plate Construction
The heating plates are enclosed within a robust structure, welded together in pairs using laser welding for leak-proof operation and enhanced resistance to thermal stress. The plate pack is assembled using a robotic TIG welding system, further ensuring reliability.
Vacuum Brazing for Enhanced Strength and Reliability
An optional vacuum brazing process strengthens the exchanger by increasing the contact surface, reinforcing the plates at key points, and enhancing the unit’s overall durability. This method ensures superior performance under variable load conditions and thermal stress.
