With capacities ranging from kilowatts to a number of megawatts, the particular chevron geometry offers the best compromise between thermal performance (coefficient of heat transfer) and energy efficiency. With the ITEX gasketed plate and frame heat exchangers, you have the full control over the performances.

Should the requirements of your application change, a future modulation of power can be easily achieved by adding, changing or removing gasketed plates from your unit.

Many materials for the plates and gaskets and many type of connections are available for all models of the ITEX range. The materials, patterns and thicknesses of plates are selected to ensure safety and longevity.

With their simplicity and easy maintenance, the single-pass exchangers are the industry standard for this type of unit. But Thermofin also offers configurations with multiple passes to answer the more specific requirements of certain applications. Here’s a diagram illustrating the direction of flow in a single-pass gasketed plate and frame heat exchanger.

Each unit is individually tested before shipment and built according to the highest standards of the industry, like CSA, ASME, ISO and PED. Manufactured with high quality materials, our ITEX range has a high resistance to corrosion. The possibility to clean between the plates, or to replace damaged plates individually, allow the ITEX to efficiently maintain its performance and extend its lifespan.

The ITEX units are accurately designed for optimized operation. All parts are replaceable, lengthening the unit’s lifetime. With their auto-blocking bolts system, only one person is required for assembling/disassembling the unit. Lateral extraction of the plates and tie rods provide a gain in space. With their compact design, the quantity of fluids circulating in the exchanger is minimized, making this technology a wise choice both economically and environmentally.
