The PLATECOIL®

PLATECOIL® Prime Surface Heat Exchangers are fabricated from two metal sheets, one or both of which are embossed. When welded together, the embossings form a series of well-defined passages through which the heat transfer media flows. Standard PLATECOIL® panels are available in more than 300 sizes; widths range from 305 mm to 1,092 mm. Length dimensions range from 584 mm to 3,632 mm.

PLATECOIL® is manufactured in compliance with strict quality control standards. Each unit is hydrostatically pressure tested before shipping to assure structural integrity. A large inventory of standard PLATECOIL® is maintained. Orders can often be shipped within a matter of a few days.

Construction

PLATECOIL® can be bent, rolled, or otherwise formed into virtually any configuration. It has inherent flexibility. Several types of surface finishes can be provided to minimize fouling and reduce maintenance. Large pass, heavy gauge PLATECOIL® is another option available to satisfy requirements for high internal flow rates, low pressure drops and rugged use.

Materials

Standard PLATECOIL® materials include Type SA-414 SS (0.15% max. carbon and 0.25 to 0.50% manganese) and Type 316L SS. Other 300 series stainless steels are available. In addition to carbon steel and stainless steel, PLATECOIL® can be fabricated from such materials as Monel, nickel and a variety of other corrosion resistant materials.

Carbon steel PLATECOIL® are available in 12 and 14 gauge (2.7 mm and 1.9 mm) material. Type 316L SS PLATECOIL® units are available in 14 and 16 gauge (1.9 mm and 1.5 mm) material.
