To assist with the mechanical cleaning of the cooler, the coil body is fixed between tube plates with a removable header (water box). The header is also equipped with drain and venting plugs. Headers can be made of Rilsan® coated steel, stainless steel, or titanium.

The cooler may be internally cleaned by simply removing the headers and using a brush (accessory) inside the tubes.

TUBE SPECIFICATIONS

  • Available tube materials are copper, copper-nickel (90/10), stainless steel or titanium
  • The tubes are mechanically expanded into the fins to give absolute contact between the two materials

FIN SPECIFICATIONS

  • The standard fins are aluminum, but can also be copper that resists a saline environment very well
  • The fins on the tubes give an increased heating surface to compensate for the low heat transfer coefficient on the air side
  • The pitch between the fins is selected to get required cooling duty and air pressure drop conditions
