Two independent fluids flowing in alternate layers at opposite directions (counter flow) to enhance heat exchange. Special designed corrugated plates to increase the heat transfer coefficient and lower potential fouling. They are brazed in a vacuum furnace and helium pressure tested to insure leak-free performance.

Uniqueness...
High Efficiency
The embossed pattern of the heat transfer plates promotes high turbulence turbulence at low fluid velocities. The high turbulence results in very high heat transfer coefficients.
Compact Size
The WCR brazed plate heat exchanger requires less floor space due to the high thermal efficiency of the stainless steel plates as compared to other types of heat exchangers. The plates are brazed together at high temperatures, allowing the heat exchanger to be compact, leak tight, and rugged. the WCR brazed heat exchanger can be anywhere from 50% to 80% smaller than other types of heat exchangers.
Close Approach Temperatures
Close-approach temperatures of 1-2°F (0.5-1.0°C) are possible because of true counter flow and high heat transfer efficiency of the plates. This is an important factor in regeneration and heat recovery processes.
High Temperature and Pressure Ratings
Maximum working pressures from 300 psi to 650 psi, and temperature ratings of 350°F.
