API SCHMIDT SIGMA 36/M36 API Gaskets For HVAC Cooling

Product Specification

API SCHMIDT SIGMA 36/M36 Model Plate Heat Exchanger Gasket and Plate for HVAC Cooling
 
SIGMA 36/M36 Model Plate Heat Exchanger Basic Structure
 
Heat transfer plates are made by pressing thin sheets of corrosion - resistant metal such as stainless steel or titanium, then set them with seal gaskets and hang sand pile them on the guide bar. The, plates are tightened with bolts between the fixed frame and the movable frame. Here, there is a certain gap between the heat transfer plates that allows liquid to flow. The liquid inlets and outlets are in the fixed frame or the movable frame.

OEM & ODM PHE Gasket Parameters
 
Gaskets used in plate heat exchangers must have durability in various liquid qualities and temperature / pressure conditions. M&C has prepared the following gasket materials in order to support a wide variety of applications.
 

 
OEM & ODM PHE Plate Parameters

The plates are specially selected from various patterns so as to achieve optimum area and cost effective heat exchanger for each unit. These plates can be classified into three type, H type, L type, Mix type.

Plate Corrugate

Low angle channel arrangement for lower allowable pressure drops requirement applications;

Mixed channel arrangement for optional arrangement to gain the optimized performance;

High angle channels arrangement for higher thermal performance and allowable pressure drops requirement applications

The Standard Materials

304 Stainless Steel

This is the lowest cost heat transfer plate material. It has low corrosion resistance and is usually only available in a thickness of 0.5mm. This type of heat transfer plate is typically used in HVAC applications.

316 Stainless Steel

This is the most common heat transfer plate material and is used in many applications. 316 stainless steel has a high corrosion resistance and is typically available in thickness from 0.5mm to 0.8mm.

Titanium

This type is very resistant to chemical attack, including most acids, chloride, seawater and chlorine chemicals. This thickness of titanium is usually from 0.5mm to 0.6mm.

Hastelloy C276

Other common names: Alloy C276, Hastelloy C, Inconel® C-276, Hastelloy C276.

Hastelloy C276 is a nickel-molybdenum-chromium superalloy with tungsten added for excellent corrosion resistance in a variety of harsh environments. Alloy C-276 is widely used in the harshest environments such as chemical processing, pollution control, pulp and paper production, industrial and municipal waste treatment, and acid natural gas recovery. The thickness can range from 0.6mm to 0.8mm.

SMO 254

Sandvik 254 SMO is a high-alloy austenitic stainless steel developed for use in seawater and other aggressive chloride-bearing media. Thickness available from 0.6mm to 0.8mm.

Plate Heat Exchanger Features
 
Heat Transfer Plates
 
Each heat transfer plate is corrugated to various patterns to increase its strength and heat transfer area. Furthermore, the corrugation creates high turbulence and thereby achieve high heat transfer coefficient. The plate is provided with passage hole on each corner. Each plate is tight-sealed with a gasket fitted in its peripheral groove. 

 
Flow Channel
 
The plates are divided into A-plate and B-plate, and a passage is formed between these plates. The high temperature fluid flows alternately and in the opposite direction of the other fluid. Thus high efficient transfer of heat is achieved through these plates.

A-plate when reversed would become B-plate. As such only one type of plate can be used as A-plate and B-plate for most models. 


Easy Maintenance
 
The plate heat exchanger can be easily opened for inspection and maintenance by loosening the tightening bolts and nuts. Assembly and opening of the unit are also easily performed. 
 
Less Installation Space
 
The lightweight and compact construction saves the installation space to 1/4 and the weight to 1/3 of shell & tube heat exchanger respectively. In addition, lightweight and thin heating plate with less liquidhold facilitates the installation work.

The Plate Heat Exchanger can be disassembled for cleaning without piping work, while the shell & tube heat needs a additional space for drawing out the tube bundle.
 

Plate Heat Exchanger Advantages

1. Heat transfer coefficient is about 2 times as high as that of shell & tube heat exchanger. The condensing surface is always secured and the heat transfer coefficient is improved because condensate is immediately drained out.

2. To achieve much less vapor pressure drop than the conventional Plate type Heat Exchanger, special consideration of plate characteristic is taken in contribution.

3. Cooling water consumption is about half of heat exchanger.

4. The use of gasket is selectively used and it expands the application to wide field.

5. Easy change of condesing capacity by increase or reducing the number of plates.

6. Because of inlet and outlet connections at the same side, Sigma 36/M36 type can be applied not only an total condenser but also to partial condenser.
