FAQ
1) What is a tube in shell heat exchanger used for?
It is used to transfer heat between two fluids in HVAC, refrigeration, and industrial systems without mixing the fluids.
2) What is the difference between tube in shell and brazed plate heat exchangers?
Tube in shell heat exchangers offer stronger mechanical structure and better suitability for higher pressure or larger flow applications, while brazed plate heat exchangers are more compact and lightweight.
3) Can this unit be used in heat pump systems?
Yes. It is commonly used as condenser or evaporator in heat pump and chiller systems depending on system design.
4) What information is required for selection?
Please provide working media, flow rate, inlet and outlet temperatures, operating pressure, allowable pressure drop, and connection size for proper model selection.
5) Do you provide OEM services?
Yes. We support OEM customization including size, capacity, labeling, and connection configuration.
6) What maintenance is required?
Proper filtration and regular system inspection are recommended to prevent fouling and ensure long service life.
