Heat Exchangers

Plate & frame heat exchangers are used in many applications where process cooling or heating is required for two fluids that must not be allowed to mix.

Heat exchangers are commonly used to isolate cooling tower water from the processing equipment water keeping your processing equipment clean and maintenance to a minimum.

Uses for a Heat Exchanger

Closed Loop Evaporative Cooling Tower System

The heat exchanger isolates the process water circuit from the tower water circuit, providing a clean and easily maintained supply of cooling water to the process.

Free Cooling

It is often possible during cool winter monthes to generate tower water much colder than the normal 85°F. A portion of this water can be directed through a heat exchanger to precool water prior to it flowing through the chiller evaporator. This reduces the load on the chiller, saving energy and wear on the chiller.
