Tranter Inc. entered into an agreement with Delta T Thermal Solutions LLC, Wichita Falls, Texas, to sell certain product assets and a manufacturing plant located in Wichita Falls, Texas. The product assets are the Platecoil, Econocoil and Maxchanger heat exchanger product lines. All other Tranter products will remain exclusively available from Tranter and its authorized partners.
A top priority of companies today is to protect the climate while meeting energy demands. Many are looking to improve their thermal processes in an ecologically friendly manner.
From cooling lasers, to food and beverage, to manufacturing processes, cooling equipment is critical to maximizing process efficiency and equipment longevity.
Helium testing, preferably through both internal and external checks, can ensure the safety and reliability of plate heat exchangers used in industrial refrigeration systems.
Leak testing of semi-welded plate heat exchangers can accurately verify leak rates and, thereby, the safety of the exchanger. To confidently detect leakage and meet leak rates required by law, a gas that has molecules smaller than water and refrigerants should be utilized for leak testing.
Editor Linda Becker and Austin Memmo, an application engineer with API Heat Transfer, talk about tips for selecting industrial process heat exchangers, including shell-and-tube, plate-and-frame, and shell-and plate designs.
Shell-and-tube heat exchangers — first introduced in the 1900s — have long been used in all types of process applications because of their robust design. Shell-and-tube heat exchangers are able to withstand high pressures and temperatures, and these features are among the reasons for their wide use.
The key to specifying the correct equipment for your heating or cooling demand is to study your process and material. They will define the type of heat exchanger to use.
Industrial applications have numerous requirements for heat exchangers and thermal transfer. Heat exchanger uses span the gamut: compressor and engine cooling, transformer temperature regulation, heat recovery from various processes, and treatment of effluent, digestate and other waste streams, to name a few.
