Quality Plate & Frame Heat Exchangers NOW Available from The Alstrom Corp. Gasketed or Brazed Plates any configuration available to meet your application requirements.
GASKETED
From 13.2 Gal/Hour to 528,000 Gal/Hour of Liquid Flow.
A Gasketed Plate Heat Exchanger consists of a number of pressed metal plates each with a rubber gasket. The gaskets are arranged in such a way so as to allow two fluids to pass in opposite directions up and down alternate channels.
The plates are compressed between two heavy metal plates (head & follower) by a number. The design of the exchanger enables it to be easily dismantled for cleaning or addition of extra plates.
BRAZED PLATES
Contrary to the traditional plate heat exchanger the brazed plate heat exchanger does not contain rubber gaskets and can thus operate continuously at the temperatures from minus 292 Deg. F up to 390 Deg. F. The operating pressure can be as high as 435 PSI.
