Welded Heat Exchangers
WCR Block Welded heat exchangers are the latest innovation in welded compact heat exchangers. The WCR Block is designed with accessibility on both sides which allows access for regular servicing. WCR Plate & Shell heat exchangers are designed for cost effective heat transfer performance and low life cycle costs. |

Brazed Heat Exchangers
WCR brazed plate heat exchangers require less floor space due to the high thermal efficiency of the stainless steel plates as compared to other types of heat exchangers. The plates are brazed together at high temperatures, allowing the heat exchanger to be compact, leak tight, and rugged. Due to the higher thermal efficiency and lower manufacturing costs, brazed plate heat exchangers are generally more economical than other types of heat exchanges performing the same duties. |

Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers
WCR offers a wide range of shell & tube heat exchangers. As a standard product range they offer fixed tube bundles in sizes from 2” to 24” in shell diameter. Straight tube removable tube bundle in sizes from 8” to 20” in shell diameter, and U-tube fixed and removable tube bundles in shell diameter sizes from 3” to 8”. In addition to the standard product range they offer special custom designed units as large as 6 feet in diameter and 20 feet in length in the quality material you need from carbon steel and stainless steel to titanium. |

Used Plate Heat Exchangers
WCR keeps a large inventory of used plates and frame parts. They offer to size a used plate heat exchanger specifically to your thermal requirement! This will be a custom designed unit using refurbished plates and frame parts with brand new gaskets! The plate heat exchanger will look and work like new but will in most cases cost less than half. |

Refurbishment Services
From their service centers in Ohio, California, Illinois, and Georgia WCR offers cleaning, regasketing, dye penetration testing, repressing of deformed plates, plate pack exchange programs, inventory management, frame handling, and onsite assistance. Their standard turnaround time for cleaning and regasketing of plate heat exchangers is 10 to 12 days. If required, 5-6 days is possible against a rush surcharge. |

Plate Coils
WCR Plate coils are cost effective replacements for pipe coils for immersion heating and cooling applications. WCR Immersion plates have more turbulent flow on both the service and process sides and increases the efficiency over pipe coil type heat exchangers. WCR Plate Coils are custom manufactured to your needs and can be banked together for applications requiring large heat transfer surface. Stainless steel and Titanium are standard construction materials. |
