Not every industrial application can be solved with a standard heat exchanger.

Different processes have different temperatures, pressures, flow rates, fluids, materials and installation constraints.

For these applications, a custom heat exchanger may provide a more suitable solution.

When Is a Custom Heat Exchanger Required?

Custom engineering may be appropriate when you have:

  • Unusual operating temperatures
  • High-pressure applications
  • Corrosive fluids
  • Limited installation space
  • Existing equipment dimensions
  • Special connection requirements
  • Specific heat-transfer requirements
  • Unique process conditions

Custom Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers

Shell and tube designs can be adapted according to application requirements.

Design considerations may include:

  • Tube diameter
  • Tube length
  • Number of passes
  • Tube material
  • Shell diameter
  • Baffle configuration
  • Connection arrangement
  • Operating pressure
  • Operating temperature

Custom Thermal Engineering

A custom solution begins with understanding the process.

Important information includes:

  • Fluid properties
  • Flow rate
  • Temperature
  • Pressure
  • Required heat duty
  • Available space
  • Materials
  • Installation requirements
