If you need a heat exchanger capable of handling extreme heat transfer duties with long temperature programmes and high flow rates we’ve got the ideal solution for you. The new Alfa Laval Packinox+ is designed for demanding positions with high pressures and temperatures, and offers outstanding thermal performance in combination with a very low pressure drop and minimal CAPEX. My name is Thierry Sourp, and I am managing director at Alfa Laval Packinox. Joining me today is my colleague Bertrand Bouzet, one of our Packinox specialist and in this video we will introduce you to some of the many benefits offered by Packinox+ So Bertrand, can you please describe what makes a Packinox+ heat exchanger so special? Yes, thank you Thierry. A Packinox+ heat exchanger combines the respective benefits of shell-and-tube and plate heat exchangers. Basically, it is a plate heat exchanger with a cylindrical pressure vessel. The pressure vessel ensures the unit can operate at high temperatures and pressures and since the heat transfer takes place in a plate pack, it is much more efficient than in a traditional shell-and-tube. as a matter of fact, a single Packinox+ heat exchanger can transfer more heat than systems consisting of multiple large shell-and-tubes. And since a Packinox+ solution is more compact, its investment and installation costs are much lower. And I would also like to mention that Packinox+ is based on the same market-leading technology that is used in our standard Packinox model which has been used in some of the most demanding heat transfer positions in refineries for more than 30 years. Great. So Packinox+ can be used in a wide range of applications and optimized for highly asymmetric flows, for example gas-to-liquid or gas-to-gas duties. Can you tell us more about this? Absolutely. Each Packinox+ is engineered to order and optimized for the specific conditions under which it will operate. Thanks to Alfa Laval’s latest innovation, which we call FlexFlow we can individually optimize the flow geometry of each stream in order to ensure the unit delivers both superior heat transfer and an optimized pressure drop even for highly asymmetric flows. Thank you, Bertrand.
