Titanium Plate Heat Exchangers
Titanium Plate Heat Exchangers are ideal for the heating or cool of corrosive products, such as salt brine or acids. Alfa Laval’s FrontLine and BaseLine (as pictured) Plate Heat Exchangers, as well as industrial units (with painted frames) are an example of these titanium plate heat exchangers.
As an Authorized Distributor of Alfa Laval products, Koss Industrial can correctly size a plate heat exchanger to you requirements.
Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers
A brazed plate heat exchanger is basically your “smaller” versions of the plate heat exchanger. One of the main separating factors of plate heat exchangers is that the “larger” ones are separate by gaskets, whereas the “smaller” ones consist of brazed seals at the edges of the plates and the contact points of the plate are also brazed.
There are many advantages to the brazed plate heat exchangers, for example, the heat transfer efficiency makes the unit compact which is easily installed in locations where space is limited. Also, seeing as the design of the this type of plate heat exchangers does not consist of gaskets, it is suitable for applications where the temperature and/or pressure rating is high.
