Tranter's On Board

In PHE Applications From

Bow To Stern!

You find Tranter's plate heat exchangers everywhere on the high seas and inland waterways—on Naval and Coast Guard ships, fleet oilers, commercial containerships, tankers, oceangoing tugs, buoy tenders and offshore drilling vessels.

We've never been high on blowing our own bosun's whistle about our unsurpassed plate-type heat exchanger technology, but plenty of ship owners, builders and oper- ators can signal you how they have lowered costs and increased the productivity of their vessels with our

SUPERCHANGER® plate and frame, PLATECOIL® prime surface and MAXCHANGER® all-welded plate heat exchangers.

For over 20 years, we've been supplying marine heat exchangers in full compliance with codes and specifications as required by the

ABS; the U.S. Coast Guard; shock testing per

MIL-S-901D; vibration testing per MIL-STD- 167-1; dynamic load calculations for ship motion; and ASME U stamp per Sec. VIII

Div. 1.

Discover how efficient your on board heat transfer can be. Call, fax or e-mail us today, or visit our website. Ask for our TIS-108A technical bulletin of marine applications, or arrange a visit by a representative. In the
