Plate-type and shell tube heat exchangers supplied by Alfrio can be used as evaporators or condensers in the refrigeration systems. They are suitable for working with ammonia in flooded systems or freon by direct expansion (evaporators). Widely used with secondary refrigerants like water and glycol for dairy products cooling, beer, palm oil and other fluids of the chemical industry.
Plate exchangers are built in stainless steel, which allows direct contact with the product, can be supplied with welded plates (closed) or plates with (open) gaskets that facilitate the maintenance and expansion of their capacity.
Shell tube heat exchangers are generally used for industrial fluids cooling such as process water, hydraulic oils, and gas condensation, among others. They are constructed mainly in carbon steel.
