    High-capacity Heat Exchangers for Industrial and District-scale Heat Pumps

     

    Industrial and district-scale heat pump systems require heat exchangers matched to defined thermal duty, pressure, and temperature parameters. We design and manufacture shell-and-tube evaporators and condensers for these systems, engineered for the specified heat source, refrigerant, fluids, materials, dimensions, and installation conditions.

     

    Design work is carried out jointly with the customer's engineering team, covering thermodynamic design, mechanical design, and material selection. Manufacturing takes place in-house, using capacity built for large industrial vessels.
