Product Description

Industrial Stainless Steel 304 316 Heat Exchanger Plates For Water Heater PHE Equipment

Heat Exchanger Plates

1. Plate heat exchanger plates are specialized components used in plate heat exchangers to isolate media and facilitate heat exchange. They play a crucial role in the functionality of plate heat exchangers. These plates are designed to effectively separate different fluids while allowing for efficient heat transfer between them.

2. These plate heat exchanger plates are primarily designed as replacements for international brands such as GEA (Kelvion), APV, Sondex, Tranter, Hisaka, API, Funke, Vicarb, Mueller, SWEP, Fischer, AGC, Thermalwave, ITT, LHE, DHP, and others. They are compatible with various models and designs of plate heat exchangers. The plates are manufactured using different materials, including stainless steel (SUS304, SUS316), titanium and titanium-palladium (Ti, Ti-Pd), 20Cr, 18Ni, 6Mo (254SMO), alloys (C276), and copper (H68), to meet specific requirements and ensure optimal performance.

Plate heat exchanger plate thickness configuration

• AISI 304 is usually 0.4 or 0.5 mm thickness
• AISI 316 is always 0.5 and 0.6 mm
• 254 SMO (high alloy) typically 0.6 mm
• Titanium plates are always 0.5 and 0.6 mm
• Some have thicker plates (for high pressure applications)
• Some PHEs have 0.4 mm (low pressure operation)
• Hastelloy C-276 (nickel alloy) typically 0.6 mm

Applacations

Production Process:

• Raw material preparation: High-quality stainless steel plates are selected as raw materials due to their excellent corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity. The plate thickness is determined based on product specifications and design requirements.
• Cutting and leveling: The stainless steel plates are accurately cut using machine tools to meet the design requirements. After cutting, leveling treatment is performed to ensure a smooth and even surface.
• Stamping: The flattened plates undergo stamping using a hydraulic press to create specific herringbone patterns. The resulting plates have a high turbulence coefficient, promoting efficient heat transfer. Precise control is maintained during the stamping process to prevent plate deformation or damage.
• Surface treatment: The plates undergo surface treatment such as polishing, sandblasting, or coating to enhance corrosion resistance and heat transfer performance. The choice of treatment method depends on specific requirements.
• Assembly and inspection: The plates are assembled according to the design requirements, forming a detachable plate heat exchanger with rubber gasket seals or a fully welded plate heat exchanger through argon arc welding. Tight fitting and absence of gaps are ensured during assembly. A rigorous performance pressure test is conducted after assembly, and a factory report is issued to verify compliance with quality standards.
