Key advantages of Polaris Plate Heat Exchangers


Compact design
—Polaris plate heat exchangers use 80 percent less floor space and weigh a tenth as much as shell-and-tube units—so they’re easier, safer, faster, and more economical to ship, handle, and install.

Close temperature approach—Countercurrent flow takes exchange media in opposite directions across the plate for big temperature differences and small transfer surface requirements.

No cross-contamination—Media circuits are individually gasketed; the area between is vented to the atmosphere. Result: no interleakage with Polaris plate heat exchangers.

Low hold-up volume—Inherent design advantages provide shorter response times and more accurate process control.

Minimum fouling—Uniform flow and high fluid turbulence with the Polaris plate design promote constant scrubbing action to reduce fouling.

Easy maintenance—Polaris plate heat exchangers provide low fouling and good drainage. Connections are made to the front; piping stays in place when units are opened.

Versatility—Multiple heating/cooling media can be run with divider sections installed in the heat exchanger.

Expandability—To enlarge a Polaris heat exchanger, just loosen compression bolts and add the plates you need.

Water savings—Polaris plate heat exchangers economize on cooling water and work well even with poor water quality.

More fluid-related savings—Polaris PHEs cut valve, piping and pumping costs.

Greater efficiency—Plate heat exchangers from Polaris use less surface area to accomplish the same heat transfer as shell-and-tube exchangers.
