Highlights
- Unobstructed flow thanks to wide channels with parallel cross-sections
- Compatibility with fibrous and particulate fluids
- Lower capital and operating costs than shell-and-tube and spiral heat exchangers
Our FreeFlow heat exchangers are designed for media containing fibers and particles. They offer lower operating costs than shell-and-tube and spiral heat exchangers and handle viscous or fouling media that are unsuitable for conventional plate heat exchangers. Parallel flow channels, wide plate gaps and a simple plate pattern minimize clogging and can eliminate the need for filtration in some duties. Channel gaps from 6 mm to 12 mm are available according to the fluid and flow rate.
Highlights
- Easy assembly, cleaning and maintenance
- Stable plate pack secured by the PosLoc system
- Maximum safety in aggressive fluids thanks to the LWC system
- Convenient and safe gasket replacement thanks to the EcoLoc system
- Homogeneous fluid distribution thanks to OptiWave design
Aggressive and corrosive fluids can shorten the service life of standard gasketed plate heat exchangers. Kelvion PHE addresses this challenge with state-of-the-art technology. Our LWC heat exchangers use laser-welded plate cassettes to provide safe heat transfer for aggressive media. N Series plate technology is also used in the LWC range, with modern design and manufacturing methods. The flow channels remain completely separated, enabling heat transfer with many aggressive fluids.
Plate and gasket technologies
OptiWave
The optimized plate pattern helps distribute fluid uniformly across the plate surface and supports heat transfer.
PosLoc
PosLoc keeps the plate pack stable and helps reduce the risk of damage to plates and gaskets during maintenance and cleaning.
EcoLoc
The adhesive-free EcoLoc system makes gaskets easier to remove and reinstall.
