HR Series Heat Exchanger
HR Series heat exchangers exchange heat between two enclosed, often
pressurized gas streams. Use our

Common Applications
Precooling hot rotary-lobe and multistage centrifugal blower discharge with
cold saturated air/gas from a C Series heat exchanger to depress relative
humidity in pneumatic conveying, biogas and landfill gas power generation
systems.
Core Construction
The aluminum plate-fin core is furnace brazed with alternating finned flow
channels. Process gas flows in horizontal channels, and ambient
cooling air flows upward, through vertical channels. The process stream
enters and exits through rectangular aluminum headers, which are welded to the
core.
Operational Considerations
Each process gas passageway is .02 square inches (.25 x .08 inches).
The process stream must be filtered to insure particulate will not obstruct the
passages. If necessary, the service side can usually be cleaned with a
soapy water wash. Due to their long flow length, the process channels
should not be considered cleanable.
Installation Considerations
Pulsating flow, such as that produced by rotary lobe blowers should be
dampened by a chambered silencer. AA Series exchangers dissipate heat from the
process stream to the ambient environment. They are designed for outdoor
installation. If installed indoors, the area should be very well
ventilated.
Performance
Xchanger engineers use a computer model to analyze heat exchanger
performance. A specifically designed program calculates housing
material thickness based on the ASME code. As with all Xchanger equipment,
the design performance is guaranteed.
