WEF6 Water cooler
Features
Heat exchangers of the WEF6 range are used to cool process/barrier fluids in seal supply circuits. WEF6 heat exchangers are fully compliant with API 682 4th edition regulations. The process/barrier medium is directed through the tube, and the cooling medium is directed through the shell.
Venting and draining of the process/barrier medium side as well as the cooling water side is ensured. In addition, the heat exchangers can also be combined with a temperature instrument in the supply line to the mechanical seal (optional in accordance with API 682 4th edition).
Advantages
- Operating limits up to 65 bar / 260 °C
(943 PSI / 500 °F) (tube side):
suitable for a wide range of operations - Cooling water and process side can be completely vented and drained
- Seamless pipes on process side
- Special design without welding inside the cooler
- Higher cooling water velocity due to innovative cooler design
- Stainless steel 316/316L: high resistance to corrosive media
Standards and approvals
- PED 2014/68/EU (Design and production in accordance with EU Pressure Equipment Directive)
- ASME VIII, Div. 1 possible (see notes)
- API 682 4th edition
Recommended applications
- Refining technology
- Oil and gas industry
- Petrochemical industry
- Chemical industry
- Power plant technology
