LC
Series heat exchangers are designed specifically for cooling liquids or high
pressure air with ambient air.Common
Applications
Cooling lube oil for gas compression skids and cooling process glycol or
water as a clean alternative to smaller cooling towers.
Features
The LC Series exchangers feature a TEFC 230/460 VAC, 3 phase motor, a
heavy-duty cooling fan, and an OSHA approved fan guard.
Plate-Fin Core Construction
The aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger 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.
Fin-Tube Core Construction
The fins are rectangular plates, with a matrix of die-extruded tube collars.
A sheet metal casing provides rigidity to the fin-tube assembly prior to
tube expansion. After assembly, the tubes are expanded into the fin collars,
giving a gap-free connection, maximizing heat exchanger performance and structural
integrity.
Operational Considerations
Typical tube materials are: copper-nickel, carbon steel, type 304
stainless steel and type 316 stainless steel. These units are particularly
suited to applications with high operating temperatures or corrosive fluids.
Units can be optionally supplied with cleanable tubes.
Performance
Xchanger engineers use a computer model to analyze heat exchanger
performance. A database with fan performance data allows us to select the
best fan for the application. As with all Xchanger equipment, the
design performance is guaranteed.
