There are times when thereliability of your equipmentis crucial!When conditions are tough, crew and equipment are reallyput to the test. The main engine oil cooler and centralfreshwater cooler simply have to work. There is no room forcompromise when the sea is rough and the harbour far away.That’s why Tranter offers you the very best. Reliable, compact,and efficient plate heat exchangers that are easy to serviceand maintain. So, it's no wonder they can be found on boardcountless vessels all around the world – from luxury yachts tohuge container vessels, supertankers and offshore rigs.Tranter offers an extensive range of gasketed plate heatexchangers specially designed for marine applications. This,combined with our extensive experience and solid technicalexpertise within marine and industrial applications, makes usa reliable partner.For many decades our plate heat exchangers have proved to bethe perfect solution for various closed-circuit cooling systemsat sea. They are also frequently found in other applications onboard, such as tap-water production systems and HVAC systems.

Our experts will guide youto the right solutionTranter is a global supplier of plate heat exchangers. We haveextensive experience of heat transfer solutions for marine, offshore, HVAC and industrial applications around the world.Our mission is to help you achieve the optimum solution withregard to performance efficiency, payback and energy conservation.Our marine programme encompasses plate heat exchangersthat fulfil any capacity requirement. Our patented Ultra flexdesign means that we can closely match precise heat exchangerrequirements with just a few plate designs. Plates are providedin stainless steel, and titanium as standard, but are also available in other materials. We can also offer frames constructedfrom aluminium etc. when it is important to keep the weight low.Quality all the wayAt Tranter we enlist cutting-edge technology in our manu facturing processes. Raw materials are subject to rigorousquality speci fi cations. Exact measurements and metall urgicalanalyses are performed in accordance with our Total QualityManagement System. Fully-automated plate presses ensureconsistent high quality and plate uniformity time after time.After assembly each plate heat exchanger is tested, and theresults are incorporated into a data bank. Before packing andshipping, we carry out a final check. Nothing is left to chance!

Keep cool for smoothand reliable operationCentral cooling systemsA central cooling system consists of central coolers that use seawater to cool a secondary circuit with fresh water. This circuitpasses through a battery of other coolers, such as lubricationoil cooler, jacket water cooler, turbo-charging air cooler etc.Using fresh water in the secondary circuit, minimizes corrosion,scaling and redundancy in machines and equipment and ensuressmooth operation. At the same time the cost for repair andreplacement will be kept to a minimum.Sea WaterHigh Temp.

Conventional plates (GC)The corrugated plates have a gasket along the periphery. Thereare also gaskets around two of the four ports, which meansthat only one of the two fluids has access to the heatingsurface. The next plate has gaskets around the other twoports. Thus a channel system is created where two fluids passthrough every other channel respectively. Leakage betweenthe two fluids is not possible thanks to double gaskets aroundthe ports. The pressure drop and heat transfer are dependenton factors such as the arrow angle of the plate pattern. Anobtuse arrow angle (high-theta plate) means high resistanceand a high thermal driving force. An acute angle (low-thetaplate) means a low pressure drop but a lower thermaldriving force.High-theta plateLow-theta plateUltraflex plates (GX)Our unique, patented Ultraflex plate design features two anglesfor each plate size. The plates are available with a herringbone pattern with either an acute or obtuse angle, making itpossible to achieve six combinations of channels. An obtuseangle (high-theta plate) gives high resistance, and an acuteangle (low-theta plate) a low pressure drop. This allows ourheat exchangers to be optimized for the characteristics of eachindividual application. If you have different flow rates in theprimary and secondary circuits, your plate heat exchangers canbe designed with asymmetrical channels for maximum heattransfer efficiency and economy.Our unique Ultraflex designallows the two plates to beturned and rotated, givingsix combinations of high- andlow-theta plate pairs, matching the performance parameters of your application.Ultraflex allows asymmetrical designs, with each circuit individuallyoptimized for heat transfer.High-theta plateLow-theta plateHS High-theta,same directionHD High-theta,different directionsMS Medium-theta,same directionLS Low-theta,same directionLD Low-theta,different directionsMD Medium-theta,different directions

No unnecessary ballastWhy fill up your engine room with heavy, bulky equipment,when efficiency and economy are vital factors?A plate heat exchanger from Tranter is only about 1/3 of thesize and 1/6 of the weight of a shell-&-tube exchanger ofcomparable performance. Even if it may seem reasonable toinvest in a tube exchanger, this would have a much higher lifecycle cost than a plate heat exchanger.One reason is that the heat transfer properties of a plate heatexchanger are 3 to 5 times higher. Another is the close temperature approach which is as low as 1 C.Efficiency pays off!A plate heat exchanger offers many advantages comparedwith conventional shell-and-tube exchangers Up to 50% more efficient Up to 90% more compact 3-5 times higher k-values Unique turbulent flow design Closer temperature approach – as low as 1 C Far less material needed– less use of exotic alloys or titaniumService and maintenancemade easyWith regular service and maintenance you keep control ofyour heat exchanger’s condition so that you can maintainoptimum performance.With a Tranter service program you get a grip on things beforethey become a problem.
