Alfa Laval has added the new T35 gasketed plate heat exchanger with improved thermal efficiency, greater temperature flexibility, minimised fouling and reduced usage of raw material to its portfolio.
Innovations to the frame, plate and gasket designs are to raise heat transfer efficiency, lower investment and operating costs and reduce maintenance costs. In addition to central cooling, the Alfa Laval T35 may also be used for lube oil cooling and for cooling in scrubber gas applications.
The T35 replaces the Alfa Laval M30 heat exchanger introduced in 1989.
New Features
- Improved plate design with patented Alfa Laval CurveFlow plate pattern, new porthole design and innovative distribution zone that ensures highly uniform distribution of the media across the entire surface. This significantly improves heat transfer efficiency.
- Patented Alfa Laval ClipGrip gasket system optimised for high and low pressures and for quick mounting and secure positioning. The new design extends gasket lifetime and significantly lowers maintenance and replacement costs compared to gasketed plate heat exchangers that require glued gaskets.
- Enhanced lightweight frame design with optimised frame thickness, two frame heights, updated marine class approval, and new roller assembly and special foot attachment to make opening and closing easier. These enhancements contribute to ease of maintenance.
