K⁰Flex FULLY WELDED PLATE HEAT EXCHANGERS

Another type fully welded Heat Exchanger is the "KFlex” which combines the advantages of shell-and-tube and plate heat exchangers in a single apparatus.

This makes it predestined for the most varied applications: e.g. as a condenser in the power station sector, as a condenser, evaporator and heat exchanger for the thermal treatment of 2-phase mixtures in the chemical and petrochemical industries as well as in the oil and gas industry and as a plate-type falling-film evaporator in the sugar industry as a gentle high-performance evaporator (EVAPplus).

Outstanding thermodynamic characteristics of the "EVAPplus" enable energy-saving designs.

The design, aimed at efficiency, simultaneously assures gentle handling of the sugar syrup by means of low temperature differentials and short dwell times.

Example: Capacity increase of Robert evaporators up to 300% by replacing of the existing tube bundle (surface ~1.000 m²) through Kelvion EvapPlus falling film plate packs (surface ~2.000 m² – 3.000 m²).
