APV/SPX Heat Exchanger Selection Guide
Energysaver | Duraflow | Easyflow | Duosafety | Paraweld | Parabrazed | Plate Evaporator | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Description | Plate with narrow gap and many contact points to secure high thermal efficiency | Plate with wide gap and reduced number of contact points to ease the flow of viscous products and products containing small particles. Designed for continuous, durable flow and long run time | Wide gap plate with reduced number of contact points to ease the flow of viscous products and products containing fibres or pulp. Designed for long run time, continuous flow, and extra gentle product treatment | Double wall (for added safety) consisting of 2 layers of plates per flow plate in order to drain any fluid from leakage to the atmosphere. For use in gasketed plate heat exchangers | Corrugated plates welded in pairs. Pairs are separated by gaskets (welded pairs on process side, normal gasket technology on the secondary side) | Plate heat exchanger without gaskets. Copper soldering joins the plates | Falling film or sometimes climbing/falling film evaporation in low height modular plate evaporator yielding superior quality concentrates |

APV/SPX Heat Exchanger Features
Features | Benefits | Customer Advantage | |
---|---|---|---|
A | Interplate locking system integrated in hanging eye | Improved plate pack stability, with extremely minimal loss of heat transfer area |
|
B | Graduated chocolate box distribution | Better thermal performance of plate -> reduction in m2 of required heat transfer area and improved performance | Improves distribution of media |
C | New doubleclip gasket affixing system | Improved gasket stability, easy removal and replacement of gasket |
|
D | Corrugated plate pattern - heat transfer area | Promoted turbulence, minimises fouling |

APV/SPX Heat Exchanger Plate Types
EnergySaver
For processing low-viscosity media. Designed for high thermal efficiency with a very close temperature approach.
DuraFlow
For medium or high viscosity media. Designed for continuous process and long run time.
EasyFlow
For media containing fibres or pulp, requiring highest possible recovery without blocking.
DuoSafety
The DuoSafety system prevents potential cross-contamination of fluids due to plate pinholes or cracks by discharging the fluid to the environment.
ParaWeld
Welded plate pairs. Designed with welded channels allowing handling of aggressive fluids. Widely used for single and two-phase heat transfer in refrigeration and in chemical, industrial and petrochemical applications.
