PLATE EAT EXCHANGERS

Got Any Ideas

For Better

Heat Transfer

Efficiency?

If you haven't been asked this question lately, it's a certainty you will be, and soon. •n virtually every marine vessel, there are opportunities to improve effi- ciency through more effective heat transfer, if you know how and where to look. Tranter's application engineers have looked for over 20 years, and have engineered a variety of solutions which have enabled ship owners, builders and operators to lower costs and to increase the productivity of their vessels. They've done it with plate-type heat exchangers.

Our SUPERCHANGER® plate and frame heat exchangers operate at a 1-2°F temperature approach, compared with a shell and tube's 8- 10°, and with 3 to 5 times greater U values!

Our PLATECOIL® prime surface units can be engineered and designed in any way, shape or form to improve heat transfer efficiency, while our MAX-

CHANGER® all-welded plate heat exchangers are especially effective where space is at a premium or gasket limitations prevent the use of a SUPER-

CHANGER.

From heating main engine jacket water to cooling water/glycol solutions for electronic gear cooling, to plastic waste disposal and numerous other suc- cessful heating and cooling applications, Tranter heat exchangers are pro- viding optimum efficiency in heat transfer.
