^■Ki _*« « . , Basco Hairpin Heat Exchangers. A hairpin design is often more thermally efficient than a traditional shell and tube, which results in a lower up-front cost and lower overall weight. Our experienced designers and engineers can meet any custom cooling requirement. Applications. ■ Oil and gas processing ■ Chemical processing ■ Petrochemical processing Performance notes. ■ Ideal for applications that require high thermal performance and a compact footprint ■ True countercurrent flow allows for a close temperature approach between the shell side and tube side fluids, as well as a temperature cross ■ Removable bundles are available in two closure options, separated or common, for required cleaning on both the shell and tube sides ■ Non-removable bundles are the cost-effective option when a fixed tubesheet design is feasible ■ Wide temperature differentials are handled without an expansion joint ■ Ease of maintenance with a long radius U-bend ■ All connections are at one end of the heat exchanger ■ Sizes up to 60 in. (150 cm) in diameter and 480 in. (1200 cm) in length ■ Materials include carbon steel, 300 series stainless steel, Duplex stainless steel, copper alloy, chrome-moly alloys, Hastelloy, Inconel, Monel, 254 SMO, alloy clad/weld overlay ■ Designed and fabricated per ASME, TEMA, CRN, PED, CML GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS | 2777 Walden Avenue | Buffalo, NY 14225, USA | +1.716.684.6700 | [email protected] api011307 Hairpin Product Sheet 8.5 in. wide x 11 in. high
