    The AlfaCond plate condenser consists of alternating welded and gasketed channels that are compressed between two frame plates. Vapors enter through a central inlet and condense in the welded channels while cooling water flows through the gasketed channels. Plate patterns optimize condensation efficiency and minimize fouling. Dimensions, materials, and performance specifications are provided for the three models, with heat transfer surfaces ranging from 115-550 square meters and design pressures up to 10 barg. Typical applications include evaporation, distillation, and power plant systems. Inquiries require specifications on

    Plate condensers

    AlfaCond 400, AlfaCond 600 and AlfaCond 800

    Applications - Condenser in evaporation and crystallization systems - Condenser in distillation systems - Turbine condenser in co-generation power plants Standard design The AlfaCond consists of a plate pack with alternating welded channels and traditional gasketed channels. All plate surfaces in the gasketed channels are easily accessible for inspection and manual cleaning. A frame holds up the plate pack, clamps it together and provides connection with the piping system. The frame consists of two heavy covers of painted carbon steel (the frame plate and the pressure plate) between which the plate pack is pressed together by means of tightening bolts.

    The frame plate is stationary, while the pressure plate is movable along the carrying bar, which also holds the plate pack. The carrying bar is supported by the frame at one end and a support column at the other end, which are bolted to the foundation. Operating performance - Condensing capacity up to 80,000 kg/hr (176,000 lb/hr) of vapour depending on process fluid and operating conditions. - Operating pressures down to 0,05 bara (0,7 psia).

    Working principle AlfaCond is tailored for vacuum condensation. The large vapour inlet connection is placed centrally on the top and the smaller condensate outlet on each side in the bottom. The two medium sized connections for cooling media are centrally placed in the middle, which gives the AlfaCond a symmetrical design. AlfaCond uses the cassette concept with the plates welded in pairs. The vapour is condensed in the welded channel while the cooling water passes through a gasketed channel. The plate pattern is specifically designed for optimal condensation, with an asymmetric channel configuration that features a large gap on the vapour side and a small gap on the cooling water side. This makes it possible to maintain a very low pressure drop on the vapour side while still keeping up the velocity and turbulence on the cooling water side, thus maximizing the heat transfer efficiency and minimizing fouling.
