Free Flow Plate Heat Exchanger

For fibres, particles and high viscous products

SonFlow’s new Free Flow plate heat exchanger series is ideally suited for difficult media containing solids, particles, fibres, and high viscous products. The Free Flow plates corrugation is designed for special tasks, where the conventional plate heat exchanger usually has a higher risk of fouling or clogging.

For the Free Flow plate series, the key focus lies in reliability and high performance. If the plate heat exchanger is not suited for the operating media, the intervals between maintenance and the risk of fouling are increased.

An optimized flow distribution

An optimized flow distribution reduces fouling and uneven temperature zones, keeping the performance levels high over time without unnecessary energy losses, maintenance costs, or unplanned stops.

Features

Every detail is designed carefully to ensure optimal heat transfer, reduced maintenance costs and decreased downtime.

Free Flow Princip High and Low Plates Princip

Plates

The wide channels provide enough room for difficult media to flow freely. The pattern of horizontal waves maintains no plate contact points in the flow direction, ensuring gentle treatment of the output product.

The clearance between the heat transfer plates measures up to 12 mm gab depending on the plate type.

High and Low

The SonFlow SFF151 and SFF301 Free Flow Plate Heat Exchanger is specially designed to mix both viscosity and flow. The design consists of two different plate patterns: “SonFlow HIGH” and “SonFlow LOW”, which can be assembled for either 12/6 mm or 9/9 mm plate gab.
