Seals and Plates for Tranter Plate Heat Exchangers

Tranter heat exchangers have one thing in common – heat transfer is provided by plates, not pipes. Even spiral heat exchangers transfer heat through 2 spiral wound plates. A feature of the compact Tranter apparatus is that the heat transfer surface is smaller in comparison with conventional shell-and-tube heat exchangers, due to the fact that the turbulent flow at low speed provides high heat transfer efficiency and low pollution.

Seals Tranter

The gaskets between the heat exchanger plates are sealing media, which makes it easy to disassemble the heat exchangers for cleaning and maintenance. Depending on the area in which they are used, the following types of heat exchanger plate materials are used: stainless steel grades SS304, SS316, 2545SVO, Titanium, Ti-Pd, Hastelloy S-276, nickel, incoloy and other special. materials.

Tranter heat exchanger seals on clips. Glueless seals can be used on clips where regular cleaning is needed, or aggressive media can shorten the life of the seal. The unique design allows for quick, and most importantly easy installation of clips for reliable sealing and easy removal. Clip seals are made from NBR and EPDM materials to meet the requirements that are accepted both in the industry and in the food industry. These seals are cast using a high-precision method with strict control of production and go through the process of peroxide crosslinking, which allows to increase the service life and gives excellent compression resistance.

Gaskets are supplied from various types of materials: NBR (nitrile-butadiene rubber), EPDM, VITON and other most suitable for a specific task.

Transter Plates

Tranter heat exchanger plates are a market leader in the implementation of highly efficient plate designs and flow configurations. Among them are Ultraflex plates, which have a unique design with a groove for seals in the neutral plane and the ability to configure blocks with a parallel or diagonal flow configuration. These options expand the possibilities of using pressure drops and increase the efficiency of the blocks. The diagonal flow option is especially important for large flows and small NTU modes.

The block velocity profile and induced turbulence cause continuous removal of sediment deposits from the heat transfer surface during operation, thereby reducing clogging. Plate turbulence also increases the efficiency of backwashing with water and CIP procedures with less frequent need for disassembly of the heat exchanger. The plates can be electropolished to facilitate cleaning, manually, and also in place. The block opens within its area simply by loosening the link bolts and rolling out the movable frame back to the support column.
