This heat exchanger holds up to a thousand plates in its frame

| By Kate Torzewski

The new NT 500 plate heat exchanger sets new performance standards with a volume flow of up to 4,500 m3/h. The steel frame can hold up to a thousand plates, and the largest version is 4.7-m high and 1.6-m wide. The unit is available in three different plate lengths, and the plates can be supplied in three different embossing patterns. Maximum operating pressure is 16 bars, and the firm’s OptiWave technology guarantees the best flow behavior across the full plate width, says the manufacturer. The NT 500 is fitted with glue-less EcoLoc gaskets, which can be replaced quickly and easily. Thanks to the PosLoc system, the plate heat exchanger has a self-centering plate pack, which guarantees a perfect fit of the plates to ensure safe process reliability.
