Jacket cooler/heater for a specialty chemicals plant
Jacket cooler/heater for a specialty chemicals plant Chemicals plant, Switzerland Case story Significant temperature and pressure changes caused frequent fatigue failure for the jacket cooler/heater used by a specialty chemicals manufacturing plant in Switzerland. By installing Alfa Laval DuroShell, the plant has doubled uptime and cut maintenance time in half, thanks to DuroShell’s improved thermal fit combined with its exceptionally fatigue-resistant design. DuroShell offers more than just fatigue resistance when operating as a jacket cooler/heater. With its low hold-up volume, it provides fast and accurate temperature control to maximize product quality and yield. The ability to operate with crossing temperatures also minimizes costs for steam or cooling water. Result
