Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides detailed information about FUNKE's brazed plate heat exchangers, highlighting their compact, reliable, and efficient design suitable for various industrial and domestic applications. These exchangers are particularly effective in mechanical and plant engineering, as well as in heating, air-conditioning, and ventilation systems.

Specifications: The heat exchangers feature a heat-exchanging surface ranging from 0.02 m² to 1500 m². They are constructed from embossed stainless steel plates, vacuum brazed with copper or nickel, forming a compact and pressure-proof unit. The standard series uses copper solder, while the NPL series uses nickel solder for resistance to specific media.

Design and Functionality: The exchangers are designed with staggered plates creating separate flow gaps, allowing media to pass in counter-flow. Special plate embossing and turbolators induce a highly turbulent flow, optimizing heat transfer even at low flow rates and minimizing fouling risks. The TPL series is noted for its high heat transfer rates, especially with high-viscosity media.

Applications: These exchangers are suitable for heating, cooling, condensing, system separation, waste heat utilization, and heat recovery in various sectors, including mechanical engineering, process technology, and refrigeration. They are used in applications like cooling lubricating oil, district heat transfer stations, and system separation on cooling ceilings.

Limitations: Brazed plate heat exchangers are generally unsuitable for seawater, ammonia, demineralized water, silicone oil, and high-chloride media, except for the NPL series.

Technical Data: The document provides detailed dimensions, connection types, and flow capacities for various models (TPL, GPL, SPL, APL series). Operating conditions include a maximum pressure of 30 bar and temperatures ranging from -160°C to +200°C, with heat duties from 2.0 to 4000 kW.

Quality and Certification: Each unit is designed and pressure tested, with additional tests available upon request. FUNKE is certified under ISO 9001 and other international standards, ensuring compliance with various global regulations.

Additional Features: Optional features include angular feet, wall brackets, transport hooks, and insulation options for both heat and cold applications. The SPL series offers enhanced safety with separate flow gaps to prevent media intermixing in case of leakage.

Feature of the GPL series is a balancedrelation between heat transfer rate and low pressure drops. Even in case of lowmass flows the thermally optimisedplate corrugation produces a highly turbulent flow, very effective utilisationof the available heat-exchanging surfaceand, furthermore, a self-cleansing effect.

APL seriesfor gas cooling The APL series was especially designed for gas/water applications.Turbulators are used in the flow gaps like the TPL series for optimumheat transfer. Connections may be on the front plate but also on the front plate andendplate, in accordance with order specification (see opposite example) APL units are especially suited as compressed air coolers for dry andmoist air. SPL seriesSafety heat exchangers The SPL safety heat exchanger with two separate flow gaps was developed for cases of application where stringent rules must be followed concerning intermixing of media in...
