APV: Single Well Gasketed (Paraflow) Plate Heat Exchanger
Advantages of Gasketed Plate vs. Tubular Heat Exchangers:
High Heat Transfer
- Film coefficients three to five-times greater
- Efficient operation with up to 98% heat recovery or regeneration
- Low liquid hold-up enables faster reaction times to change in process
- Fluids flow counter-current to each other between the parallel passages in each pass
Economical and Compact
- Reduces floor space by up to 90%, weighs less and delivers higher performance
- Lower hold-up volume minimizes the amount of product required for flooding, reduces usage of high cost service fluids and improves thermal reaction times
- Reduced capital costs and installation expenses
- High energy recovery reduces energy costs
Cleanability
- Efficient design of heat transfer area reduces fouling caused by debris and dirt
- Simplified cleaning and plate accessibility
- Designed for use of effective CIP, removing chemical films or scaling deposits
Accessibility
- Full access to both sides of the heat-transfer surface for inspection, maintenance, and cleaning
- Access is readily accomplished within the installed space of the unit
Flexibility
- Modular design enables expansion of your heat exchanger as process requirements grow
- Handles multiple duties and fluid streams in a single unit
- Easily reconfigured to meet changing process needs
- Wide variety of sizes and style ensuring optimal solutions for your applications
APV: Gasketed Plate and Frame Heat Exchanger
Gasketed Plate and Frame Heat Exchangers
The first commercially successful plate and frame heat exchanger was introduced in 1923 by Aluminum Plant and Vessel Company Ltd., which became known as APV. We have evolved and grown over the years to better meet the changing needs of our customers and their industries. Our vision for the future is rooted in a long standing tradition of excellence and commitment to progress. We strive to offer the customer the highest quality products and services today, tomorrow and beyond.

APV: Double Wall Design (Duo Safety)
Duo-Safety Plates
Duo-safety plates are specially designed to protect product from medium as a consequence of through-plate leaks from cracks or corrosion. They have a pair of special non-welded plates back to back, with the leak path between them open to atmosphere. These paired plates then have product and service medium flow on either side.
Product range
The APV Duo-Safety plate consists of two loose heat exchanger plates. These can be made of different material. Each plate pair is fitted with a non-glued Paraclip gasket, which both seals and holds the pair together. Gaskets can be supplied in the full range of materials. The APV Duo-Safety heat exchanger plate pairs can be supplied in stainless steel, titanium, etc. or in two different materials. Gaskets are now available in NBR or EPDM material.
Features/benefits
- 100% visual inspection is possible
- The APV Duo-Safety plate pair can be dismantled for cleaning between the two plate faces
- Possibility to combine different plate materials in one plate pair, such as stainless steel/titanium or hastelloy/titanium
- Two gasket materials can be combined; e.g. EPDM/viton
- High safety against mixing of fluids
- No welds
