Working Principle
The media involved in the heat exchange process are fed into the plate pack via connections on the fixed and movable pressure plates. The arrangement of the plate pack creates two interleaved channel systems enabling the two media to flow past and between each other without physical contact, leaving the exchanger again via connections in the pressure plates.
Plates with different patterns can be mixed in the heat exchanger in order to achieve optimum efficiency at a given pressure drop. By installing special distribution plates in the plate pack the media can be conducted several times through the flow channels and thus participate longer in the heat exchange process.
Product description
Thermo Line plate heat exchangers consist of a number of corrugated plates. The plate pack is mounted between a fixed and a movable pressure plate, positioned by an upper and a lower carrying bar, and compressed by several tightening bolts.
Gasketed type plates and welded modules with various patterns are available for a wide range of applications. The media can pass the heat exchanger either in concurrent or counter-current flow.
Depending on the operating conditions media and temperature-resistant gaskets of the glued on or clipped on version are used. The welded plate module forms are hermetically sealed flow channel to the outside. The transition from one module to another is sealed by a ring gasket made of a special material.
