heat exchanger manufacturer on the market. No matter yourmarket, application or process, if inefficient heat transfer is costingyou time, money and energy, its time to reshape your future witha PLA ECOIL solution.

The PLATECOIL AdvantageEssentially two die-formed sheets welded together, PLA ECOILpanels comprise a series of passages through which a heating orcooling media ows. Highly uniform heating or cooling enablesPLA ECOIL panels and banks to improve efficiency and energyeconomy. Additionally, easy access to panels and robust cleaningsurfaces reduce maintenance burdens.

Processors worldwide have used PLA ECOIL to: Eliminate sparging for reduced water and steam consumption Capture waste energy from moist, wet ue gases

at temperatures as low as 67C (150F) Recycle low-grade heat energy from drains Improve economic performance in existing

tanks and vessels using clamp-on retrots

Low-grade moist hot gas streams are anoutstanding heat recovery opportunity forECONOCOIL banks.

coefficient, durabilityPLA ECOIL is engineered and craftedfor faster start-ups, constant temperatures, better control andlonger service life. Specify PLA ECOIL, then sit back and relax,thanks to a high built-in safety factor of 5:1.

Congure PLA ECOIL as banksyoull benet from lowerengineering, fabricating and maintenance costs. In tanks,PLA ECOIL banks give you twice the surface area in a given space,at half the weight as equivalent pipe coil. PLA ECOIL banks rigiddesign requires fewer supports, making replacement easier.

PLA ECOIL panels available Quick Change Hangers make themfast and easy to handle during installation and cleaning. Tere are noimmersed threaded joints to seize. With available full annealing, youbenet from extra corrosion resistance. Cleaning is much simpler,because entire units are removable without dumping the solution.

Or, congure PLA ECOIL as unit fabrications, and youll enjoy what we call IPFInnite PLA ECOIL Flexibility. Amongour shapes are tangent bends, pancakes, dished heads, cones andbends around curvesall with precision and dimensional stabilityunequaled by dimple sheet or pipe fabrications.

The Right Circuitry for Your Application

ree styles of Multi-Zone and two styles of Serpentine owcongurations ensure that you get the right combination of owrate and heat transfer rate. With more than 300 sizes, widths rangingfrom 305 mm to 1090 mm (12 in. to 43 in.) and lengths spanning585 mm to 3630 mm (23 in. to 143 in.), no job is too big or toosmall for PLATECOIL to handle. Where theres a need for highinternal ow rates, low pressure drop or rugged use, large-pass,heavy-gauge PLA ECOIL units ll the bill.

Exclusive Multi-Zone Circuitry

Tranter specially designs Multi-Zone panels with zoned headersfor outstanding performance with steam. eir FREE-FLO actionavoids efficiency-robbing condensate blocking commonly

encountered in pipecoils or straight headered units. Te ow patternprovides reserve capacity to compensate for intermittent overloaduring start-ups, distributing steam virtually instantaneously to alevels of the plate. Under load swings, Multi-Zone PLATECOIattains desired operating temperatures extremely rapidly, wiminimum variation.

Fast-Responding Serpentine Circuitry

PLA ECOIL Serpentine circuitry offers outstanding performanc with liquid heating or cooling media. Serpentine panels promohigh internal ow velocities for high heat transfer rates. Tesunits are frequently specied for use with cold water, hot watehot oil and refrigerants.

Die-forming result in a welded panel that can stand up to difficultconditions.

Idea Notebook PLA ECOIL panels are highly rened, engineered products thatmeet specic needs. Teir exclusive, die-formed constructionmakes them lighter and easier to fabricate than pipecoil, plus theirefficiency means a smaller footprint. In carbon steel, PLA ECOILpanels can truly be bent or curved in any way, shape or form.One Size Does NOT Fit All...

Heat Recovery BanksPLA ECOIL heat recovery banks in wet gas and liquid streams cut industry fuelbills signicantly. At the same time, they knock out troublesome vapor plumes andreduce thermal load on e uent plants. Wet ue gas streams as low as 66C (150F)are a candidate for big savings from PLA ECOIL heating banks. Corrosive gasesare not a problem, thanks to special ECONOCOIL hydraulically expandedtitanium sheet construction.

Clamp-On Vessel UpgradesSpecially congured curved PLA ECOIL panels are an economical means ofconverting existing unjacketed vessels to heated reactors, or of upgrading the thermalcapacity of existing reactors. Processors modifying their lines often procure a low costplain tank and add efficient PLA ECOIL jacketing at the jobsite. Standard units areavailable in seven widths and twelve lengths, or in customized variations.

Immersion BanksPLA ECOIL banks make open tank heating and cooling of liquids more efficient than

with pipe coil. Teir planar shape induces a chimney effect for natural convectioncirculation and improved heating uniformity. Countercurrent ow circuits maximizeheat transfer, while wide interspaces and open turns effectively pass solids or bers.PLA ECOIL panels can efficiently recover heat from dirty wastewater, reducingthermal pollution.

Vessels and ReactorsTough compact and light in weight, PLA ECOIL panels can attain surprisinglyhigh jacket operating pressure ratings. And because they deliver higher owvelocities than other technologies, heat transfer is improved, fouling reduced.Vessel sides can be easily designed with two or more zones to e ciently satisfydiverse process requirements. Also, panels can be congured as internal baffles ormixers with heat exchanger surfaces for reduced cycle time. Heavy gauge materialsand special reinforcing features effectively withstand agitation forces.

Rotary and Fluidized Bed DryersPLA ECOIL panels can be fabricated as shells or banks for direct contact orconvection drying of solid materials such as biomass, feedstuffs or food byproducts,confections and many other solid materials. Teir outstanding heat transfer rates,combined with use of heated baffles and paddles, improve drying efficiency comparedto other technologies.

Heavy Wall Vessels and PlatensSingle-embossed units can be furnished highly at on one side, with no weld maor discolorations, as heavy vessel walls or direct-contact platens. ey can be MIspot-welded or continuously welded to ASME Code requirements. Embossings be provided on heads or internal wall sections using MIG welding.

Bayonet HeatersPLA ECOIL bayonet heaters are an energy-efficient, water-saving alternative to steamsparging for heating process vessels. Available in a range of sizes, they provide a largeamount of efficient primary heating surface in a single unit. Tey can also be used tomaintain desired temperatures in bulk storage tanks.

Cryogenic ShroudsPLA ECOIL panels are often incorporated into large and small test chamberssurfaces for helium cryopumping and bell jar covers. ranters cryogenic edge ua unique treatment for pressure containment and to facilitate sensitive, requirmass spectrometer leak testing.

Pipe Cooling or Pump Inlet CoolingPipe sections, chutes and inlet housings can be fabricated from or jacketed withPLA ECOIL to cool liquids or gases. In this way, PLA ECOIL can protectprocess equipment, rapidly halt reactions or stop ashing and phase changes.

Sulfur RecoveryFlue sections, chutes and housings in gasication processes can be fabricatedfrom or jacketed with steam-heated ECONOCOIL to prevent condensation andsolidication of sulfur before quenching. In this way, ECONOCOIL reducesmaintenance burdens and improves throughput.

Water Bath Vaporizers, Lyophilizersand Freeze DryersPLAECOIL can be congured as heated shelves within vacuum chambers, cabinets orovens. Or, they can be fabricated as refrigerated surfaces in vacuum chambers to promotesublimation. Teir heat transfer rates are highly controllable for precision processing.Teir die-formed construction provides long life and trouble-free operation.

Fluidized Bed CoolersCooling, drying or heating of solids is accomplished by PLATECOIL uidizedbed heat exchangers. Solid products such as molten confections are passed betweenPLA ECOIL units in a vertically-installed bank, which employs water for cooling.
