Industrial Heat Exchanger for Mechanical Seal Systems
Constructive characteristicsIndustrial Heat Exchanger for Mechanical Seal Systems – API 682 Compliant
The Malavazi industrial heat exchanger is engineered to meet the rigorous specifications of API 682, offering a reliable thermal management solution for mechanical seal support systems. Its primary function is to cool the barrier or process fluid, maintaining the optimal temperature in the mechanical seal chamber and improving overall equipment performance.
Compatible with API Seal Plans 21, 23, and 41
This shell-and-tube heat exchanger is designed for seamless integration into systems using API seal plans, where fluid cooling is required prior to contact with the seal faces. This reduces the risk of thermal damage, cavitation, and premature seal failure.
How It Works
The Malavazi heat exchanger operates as a shell and tube system:
• The seal fluid flows through the internal tubes;
• The cooling fluid (usually water) circulates through the outer shell;
• Includes a vent and drain port for easy maintenance and inspection.
