Well known Kelvion

History

Kelvion (former GEA) has been created in 1920 by Otto HAPPEL. The name “Kelvion” has been created in memory of Lord Kelvin who has formulate the thermodynamic laws and absolute unities which are indicated in kelvin. In 2014, GEA sell a part of its company, the HX (heat exchangers) division to Triton brand. In 2015, Kelvion is born. Nowadays, this company is known for its technical expertise and its economic technologic process.

Even if the Kelvion plates heat exchangers are usually used in food application (specially the beverage), we can find them in some applications like pharmaceuticals, chemical, gas and other applications where wet surfaces are needed. Kelvion is one of main supplier around the world in high performance and low energy consummation in the industrial heat solution. This solution offer a superior value to the customer. The products range includes industrial heaters such as steam boilers and heat recovery systems, industrial water heaters and industrial water chillers.

Kelvion proposes a wide range of tubular and plates heat exchangers : brazed, welded and gasketed.

In this article, we are going to focus on the plates heat exchangers and their gaskets. This range calls ECOFLEX and included 5 series (NT, GG, FREE FLOW, CONCITHERM, SAFETYTHERM).

This product is, for Kelvion, a group of exchangers where the plates are made to optimize the perform of the exchange surfaces.

This type of heat exchanger is made for drinking water applications. The frame is made with raw-materials without a lot of iron (ej : zinc, lead, tin, aluminum, titanium, nickel, copper, etc.) and the plate are made with steel to increase their corrosion resistance

This series is designed for the exchange of solid elements (particles or fibers). The FREE FLOW plates are generally spaced apart (between 5 and 12mm separation) depending on the application. The separation and characteristics of these plates prevent clogging caused by solids. This type of exchanger can be found in the food industry, where it is used to manufacture sugar, fruit juices, paper, etc.

These heat exchangers products are evaporators. When you use a plates evaporator instead of tube evaporators you can limit the reduction of pressure losses and increases performance by a factor of 2. Thanks to the use of a plate exchanger, it is possible to increase its exchange surface by adding plates which is not possible when using a tubular exchanger.

As its name suggests, this series was designed by Kelvion with safety above all else. A SAFETYTHERM exchanger has double plates which would ensure, in the event of a leak, that the two exchanges don’t mix. For example: in the event of a leak, the liquid would flow between the two plates so contact will be non-existent.

MCD® gaskets are equivalent gaskets with the same characteristics as OEM (original equipment manufacturer). They are available at a reduced price on the parts sales market. What must be remembered from an equivalent gaskets is that attention must be paid to the raw materials to ensure their quality. The brand does not make the product, the raw materials do.

MCD, world leader in the manufacture and sale of elastomer gaskets, offers you a wide range of KELVION gaskets for sale. Following the same KELVION characteristics, MCD® certified gaskets guarantee you the same quality criteria as the originals.

MCD® gaskets are manufactured using 100% European raw materials and are checked by a team of technical experts.
