Hybrid Heat Exchanger – All Welded Design

The fully welded gasketless plate heat exchanger Hybrid consists of high efficiency plates and a strong channel structure. It is designed to operate under difficult conditions where extremely low pressure loss is required, if necessary, where other heat exchangers cannot perform due to temperature and pressure limitations. Thanks to its compact and flexible design, the APV Hybrid takes up 5-10 times less space than conventional tube heat exchangers that perform the same tasks.

Application areas:

It is generally used at high temperature and high pressure for heating, cooling, condensation and evaporation. E.g; used in energy, chemical, petrochemical and sugar industry applications.

Application:

• Oil and Gas
  • Gas sweetening
  • Gas Dehydration
  • Crude oil stabilizer
  • Crude oil heater
• Chemical
  • Solution cooler and heater
  • Process condenser
  • Cryogenic chiller
• Power
  • Steam condenser
  • District heating units
• Industrial
  • Reboiler
