h eAt e xchAngers

SPX Cooling Technologies has over 40 years

of experience in the design and manufac-turing of air-cooled heat exchangers. Our

thermal designs are based on SPX Cooling

Technologies’ proprietary computer programs,

and are, as standard procedure, verified to the

latest version of widely accepted HTRI ther-

mal design software.

The AirFin air-cooled heat exchanger is designed

and manufactured as a forced draft or induced

draft type. Each tube bundle is constructed,

tested, and stamped in strict accordance withthe following rigid standards

• ASME Section VIII, Division I, with

"U" stamp

• API 661, when applicable (recommended

design practice for Refinery Application)

• TEMA, when applicable

• Additional world standards: DIN, British, JIS,

AD-Merkblatt, REGELS

• Chinese standards: GB-150, BR1, GB/

T15386, JB-4730

Project planning and implementation

processes utilize ultramodern computer software

for engineering, design and

manufacturing.

AirFin designs can be completely shop-

assembled, or pre-assembled in modular

pieces for easy on-site field erection, the choice

contingent upon optimum transportation cost

benefit to the customer. For export projects, to

ensure that your shipment arrives in perfect

condition, we offer seaworthy packing, with

nitrogen fill for long-term storage.
