Plate Heat Exchanger
Plate Heat Exchanger
Product Description
The Gasket Plate Heat Exchanger (GPHE) is a type of heating equipment that, due to its special plate design, efficiently transfers heat utilizing every point on the plate surface.
Plate heat exchangers come in various sizes and are designed with flexibility, allowing the alteration of the number of plates, types, and quantity of flow paths. This enables the manufacturing of industrial heat exchangers according to specific applications based on rated power, operating temperature, and pressure drop.
Working Principle:
Gasket plate heat exchanger consists of thin metal plates pressed into a specific corrugated shape and then assembled using clamps and bolts, creating a tightly sealed heat exchanger. These plates are stacked to form a heat exchange unit with thin, rectangular channels in between, facilitating the exchange of heat. The working process involves the fluid flowing through these narrow, winding channels created between pairs of plates. Hot and cold fluids alternately pass through these channels, with the plates separating them and enabling heat transfer through them. The design and heat transfer mechanism of the plate heat exchanger result in tight connections, a compact structure, high heat transfer efficiency, operational flexibility, a wide range of applications, minimal heat loss, and ease of installation and cleaning.
Gasket Plate Heat Exchanger Characteristics:
1. Compact Structure - Easy Installation: The compact design of the gasket heat exchanger allows for easy installation.
2. Simple and Convenient Maintenance: Maintenance of the gasketed plate heat exchanger is straightforward and convenient.
3. High Energy Efficiency - Low Operating Costs: Plate heat exchangers gasket types are highly energy-efficient, leading to reduced operating costs.
4. Flexible Configuration - Modifiable Heat Transfer Area: The heat transfer area of the plate heat exchanger can be modified to suit specific requirements.
5. High Serviceability - Easy Inspection, Cleaning, and CIP Compatibility: Plate heat exchangers are easy to open for inspection and cleaning, and they can be cleaned using Cleaning in Place (CIP) methods.
