Data sheet
SONDEX® Fully welded plate heat exchangers (SAW)
Description
SONDEX® Fully welded plate heat exchangers
(SAW) are designed to handle extremely
aggressive and demanding media and achieve
very close temperature approaches with a true
counter-current design. Very small and compact,
they are the perfect solution for applications and
duties that require a fully welded product, such
as a plate and shell or block-type heat exchanger,
but do not need their substantial capacities. A
product that perfectly matches the specifications
of the task will always be the optimal solution.
In their class, the fully welded series outperform
shell and tube heat exchangers in every aspect
and offer all the benefits of a gasketed heat
exchanger as well as increased durability.
Benefits:
• Very compact, cost-effective units that take
up minimal floor space are light in weight,
while providing very efficient heat transfer,
through the courtesy of a true countercurrent flow.
• The gasket-free solutions feature a fully
welded plate pack that enable them to work
with very high pressure and temperatures.
The risks of leaks are severely diminished with
a completely welded heat exchanger.
• The plates in the completely welded plate
pack are made from highly resistant materials
guaranteed to withstand even the most
extreme working conditions.
Common applications:
• HVAC industry
• Refrigeration industry
• Pulp and paper industry
• Heavy industry
• Mining industry
• Petrochemical industry
• Chemical industry
Main data:
• Min. temperature −10 °C (14°F)
