Plate Heat Exchangers

Alfa Laval has a long history of leadership in heat transfer. The plates, for example, are the first with a distribution area for optimizing product flow. While this feature is frequently copied today, their precision-engineered plates are still unmatched when it comes to directing the movement of fluid. This gives them not only superior heat transfer characteristics, but also exceptional cleanability even at the plate corners.

BaseLine plate heat exchanger range
The Alfa Laval BaseLine series consists of four models – Base 3, 6, 10 and 11 – that feature 1” to 4” connections. Capacity ranges from 4,500 l/h to 130,000 l/h, depending on the application. BaseLine

FrontLine plate heat exchanger range
The Alfa Laval FrontLine series consists of four models – Front 6, 8, 10 and 15 – that feature plate ports and connections from 2” to 6” in diameter. Capacity ranges from 8,000 l/h to 130,000 l/h, depending on the application. FrontLine.

Compabloc Heat Exchangers

No where is there more demand for a reliable and high quality condenser than in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Based on an innovative concept completely different from traditional shell-and-tube condensers, the Compabloc is one of the most compact solutions available. As a result of its outstanding heat transfer efficiency, the sanitary Compabloc meets the cGMP requirements of pharmaceutical industries. It has no liquid retention inside and is fully drainable. Heat transfer plates can be electropolished as an option to meet a surface roughness of Ra < 0.8µm.

Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers for Pharmaceutical Applications

Pharma-Line sanitary heat exchangers are a high-quality shell-and-tube heat exchanger especially developed to meet the high hygienic demands of the pharmaceutical industry. The design of the Pharma-Line makes it easy to drain and clean, and there is no risk of cross contamination associated with conventional heat exchangers. The Pharma-Line heat exchanger was designed to work in the highest hygienic conditions in applications such as water-for-injection (WFI), Purified Water (PW), and heating/cooling of pharmaceutical products.
