Corrosion-resistant heat transfer
Make thermal performance visible and maintainable.
Glass shell-and-tube heat exchangers bring corrosion resistance and direct observation to heating, cooling, condensation, evaporation, absorption and waste-heat duties. Modular construction allows major parts such as shells, tube sheets, tubes and bonnets to be removed for cleaning or replacement.
Materials and orientation are selected around the process fluid, utility pressure, temperature and heat-transfer area. Options include all-glass units, metal shells with glass tubes, and shell-and-graphite-tube combinations for demanding duties.
Up to 50 m²
Metal-shell and glass-tube configurations.
0.2–4 m²
Modular glass coil heat exchangers.
Multiple orientations
Horizontal, vertical or inclined installation.
Salient features
Adapt materials and geometry to the thermal duty.
Shell, tubes, bonnet, pass arrangement and orientation can be configured independently for the process.
Broad process duties
Heat, cool, condense, evaporate, absorb or recover waste heat.
Replaceable internals
Removable tubes and components simplify repair and cleaning.
Material flexibility
Glass, stainless steel, mild steel, FRP, PTFE-lined and graphite options.
Space-efficient installation
Vertical or horizontal layouts suit the available plant envelope.
Pass selection
Single-, double- or triple-pass metallic bonnets are available.
Visible operation
Glass construction exposes condensation, boiling and fouling.
Heat-exchanger families
Choose shell-and-tube or modular coil construction.
Required area, utility pressure, corrosion duty and maintenance strategy guide the construction choice.
Shell-and-tube heat exchangers
Scalable modular equipment for larger thermal duties
Glass tubes can be combined with glass or metal shells, while graphite-tube versions extend capability for aggressive service.
