U-tube
Heat exchanger
In this type of shell-and-tube heat exchanger, the heating surface consists of tubes bent in a U-shape, which are firmly installed in the tube plate on one side only.
The tube bundle in this design is drawable and individually replaceable as a spare part, while the shell can be reused. Also for cleaning purposes, the bundle can be pulled.
We will be happy to inform you about the individual designs in a personal consultation and determine the optimum design for your application together with you.
ADVANTAGES
- The tube bundle can expand freely in the jacket so that no stresses can occur
- The tube bundle can be pulled / changed
- usually less expensive than a comparable straight-pipe heat exchanger
