Masterflow’s Range of Alfa Laval Heat Exchangers
Alfa Laval offers a wide variety of heat exchangers including gasketed, semi- and fully welded, double-wall plate, and brazed heat exchangers.
Their gasketed plate-and-frame heat exchangers are built to stand up to the most demanding modern applications.
These heat exchangers use a series of corrugated plates with large surface area to efficiently draw heat from one gas or liquid to another.
Unique Design Features
As well as their extremely high thermal efficiency and general reliability, Alfa Laval’s heat exchangers have a number of design features that make them particularly attractive to engineers in a wide range of applications and industries.
The stud bolts on either side of each unit make these fast and easy for plumbers to install, eliminating the need to source specialised bolts for this purpose.
They also feature tightening bolts that can be quickly removed to allow for fast cleaning of the corrugated plates and are just as quickly replaced, minimising the downtime required for maintenance and ensuring years of trouble-free operation.
These machines are highly serviceable, with a small physical footprint, and their high level of efficiency translates to a low carbon output and makes them highly environmentally friendly.
