Typical Applications of Welded Plate heat exchanger
Welded Plate Heat Exchangers are the workhorses for tough industrial jobs:
- Chemical & Petrochemical Industry: Heating and cooling corrosive process streams.
- Refrigeration: As evaporators and condensers in industrial ammonia (NH₃) refrigeration systems.
- Power Generation: In high-pressure circuits.
- Oil & Gas: For gas processing and compression cooling.
- Pulp & Paper Industry: Handling corrosive black liquor and other chemicals.
- Semi-Welded Specific: Ideal when one fluid is aggressive/expensive (e.g., refrigerant) and the other is a clean but fouling service (e.g., cooling water) that needs periodic cleaning.
