Plates

Plates for plate heat exchangers from Spliteks

As a leading Russian manufacturer of heat-exchange equipment, Spliteks supplies heat exchanger plates in addition to gaskets. They are the principal working elements, and the heat-transfer coefficient of the entire system depends on their condition.

The role of plates in heat transfer

The plates create turbulent liquid flow, maximising heat-transfer efficiency while keeping the unit compact. Each plate in the pack is isolated by a gasket, forming a reliable circuit.

Materials and designs

Spliteks offers heat exchanger plates made of AISI 304 and AISI 316L stainless steel, as well as titanium for particularly aggressive media. Sheet thickness and corrugation depth are selected for the specific operating conditions. Different corrugation patterns (thermally “hard” and “soft” plates) make it possible to tailor the equipment capacity precisely to your requirements.

All heat exchanger plates undergo multi-stage quality control. This guarantees the long, trouble-free operation of gasketed plate heat exchangers.

Compatibility with popular models

The range includes plates for Alfa Laval, Sondex and Funke heat exchangers. The geometry fully matches the original fitting dimensions, allowing complete replacement or the addition of plates without modifying the unit frame.

Advantages of Spliteks plates

The plates supplied by our company are precision-pressed, ensuring a perfect fit for gaskets and eliminating the risk of leakage when the plate pack is assembled. Key product advantages:

• Corrosion resistance: The use of high-quality steel (AISI 316 and AISI 304) ensures long service life even under demanding operating conditions.

• Equivalent performance: The channel geometry fully complies with Alfa Laval, Sondex and Funke specifications, maintaining the design capacity of your equipment.

• Rapid replacement: Keeping plates in stock allows heat exchanger operation to be restored as quickly as possible, without waiting for lengthy deliveries from manufacturers.

Manufacturing and purchasing

To purchase plates and gaskets, you do not need to search online-shop catalogues or deal with the complex bureaucracy of official representatives. At Spliteks, the process is as straightforward as possible:

1. Tell us the heat exchanger model or the specifications of the required components.

2. We check their actual availability in our warehouse.

3. We arrange prompt dispatch and delivery.

As we supply products directly from stock, you receive components at a transparent price with minimal logistical delays.

Questions and answers:

Which heat exchangers are your plates suitable for?

Our plates are suitable for the repair, upgrading or capacity increase of heat exchangers in the oil and gas, chemical and food industries and the municipal utilities sector. They precisely match the geometry and technical specifications of the original plates. Available sizes: FP50, M3, M10M, TL10B, TL15B, T20M, S08A, S21A, S22, S65, S81, S110 and others.

What materials are heat exchanger plates made from?

We use high-quality stainless steel: AISI 304L (food-grade) and AISI 316L (acid-resistant). The materials provide complete corrosion resistance and comply with industry standards for use in aggressive environments in the oil and gas and chemical industries.

How quickly can you deliver heat exchanger plates to an oil and gas facility?

We promptly carry out the necessary calculations and arrange delivery from stock. Standard sizes are in stock and are dispatched within 1–3 working days. Lead times for custom orders are agreed separately. Please contact our managers to confirm current availability.

What advantages do your plates offer over comparable products?

Our plates offer high heat-transfer efficiency due to precision pressing, mechanical strength and durability through compliance with the specified thickness, preservation of the heat exchanger’s rated performance, and resistance to corrosion and aggressive media.

What plate thickness is optimal for oil and gas equipment?

The optimal thickness is 0.5 mm. This solution provides a balance between mechanical strength and high heat-transfer efficiency, which is critical for the stable operation of heat exchangers in the oil and gas industry.
