Introducing our premium Flanged Plate and Shell Heat Exchanger, meticulously crafted from 316L stainless steel to deliver exceptional corrosion resistance and durability in demanding thermal management applications. As a trusted manufacturer with over 10 years of expertise, Qingdao Conqinphi Environmental Technology Group Co., Ltd. combines advanced engineering with rigorous quality control to bring you a heat exchanger that excels under pressures up to 16 Bar and temperatures up to 150°C. With a factory spanning 10,000–30,000 square meters and a dedicated team of 201–300 employees, we have the capacity and proficiency to meet your most stringent requirements.
Our plate and shell design integrates the high thermal efficiency of plate heat exchangers with the robust shell-and-tube construction, ensuring optimal heat transfer even in viscous or fouling fluids. The flanged connections simplify installation and maintenance, while the 316L stainless steel construction guarantees long service life in aggressive environments such as seawater cooling, chemical processing, and food sanitation. Whether you need a standard unit or a customized solution, our engineering team is ready to support your project from concept to delivery, backed by certifications including ISO9001, HACCP, OHSAS18001, and more.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Superior Material: All 316L stainless steel wetted components – excellent resistance to chlorides, acids, and high-temperature oxidation.
- Robust Design Pressure: Rated for 16 Bar (232 psi), suitable for medium-pressure industrial processes.
- High Temperature Capability: Maximum operating temperature of 150°C (302°F) for a wide range of hot fluid applications.
- Flanged Connections: Standard ANSI/ISO flanges for easy piping integration and leak-tight sealing.
- Efficient Heat Transfer: Corrugated plates induce turbulent flow, reducing fouling and improving overall heat transfer coefficient (U-value).
- Compact Footprint: Plate-and-shell design offers high heat transfer surface area in a relatively small volume compared to traditional shell-and-tube exchangers.
- Easy Maintenance: Removable plate bundle allows for mechanical cleaning or replacement without disturbing piping connections.
- Customizable Options: Available in different plate pitches, gasket materials (EPDM, NBR, Viton), and surface finishes to suit specific process fluids.

The plate and shell geometry creates a fully welded shell body with a removable plate cassette. This design combines the benefits of traditional shell-and-tube heat exchangers (ability to handle high pressures and temperatures) with the high efficiency of plate heat exchangers. The corrugated plates generate turbulence at low Reynolds numbers, which not only improves heat transfer but also reduces scaling and fouling. Compared to conventional tubular designs, our flanged plate and shell heat exchanger can achieve up to 40% higher thermal efficiency in the same footprint.
Customer Benefits
- Reduced Operating Costs: Lower energy consumption due to excellent heat transfer performance; less pumping power required because of low pressure drop per plate.
- Longer Service Life: 316L stainless steel resists pitting and crevice corrosion, especially in chloride-containing environments. The smooth plate surfaces are easy to clean.
- Flexible Installation: Flanged connections allow quick integration into existing piping systems. Compact dimensions reduce the need for structural supports.
- Minimal Maintenance: The plate bundle can be removed for inspection and cleaning without disturbing the shell’s piping. Gasket replacement is straightforward.
- Customization for Your Process: We offer multiple plate configurations, gasket materials, and flange ratings to precisely match your temperature and pressure requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What fluids can be handled by this heat exchanger?
A: The 316L stainless steel construction is compatible with many corrosive fluids including seawater, brines, dilute acids, alkaline solutions, and food-grade liquids. For strongly oxidizing or high-chloride environments, please consult our engineering team for specific gasket and surface finish recommendations. -
Q: Is the shell welded or bolted?
A: The shell is fully welded for pressure integrity. The plate bundle is held together by a bolted flange assembly on the cover, allowing easy removal for cleaning. The main shell access is sealed with a high-quality gasket. -
Q: Can the design pressure of 16 Bar be exceeded?
A: Standard units are rated for 16 Bar maximum. If your application requires higher pressure (e.g., 25 Bar), we can offer customized designs with thicker plates and reinforced flanges. Please contact us with your specific requirements. -
Q: How is the heat exchanger cleaned?
A: The removable plate bundle allows for mechanical cleaning (brush or high-pressure water) as well as chemical cleaning-in-place (CIP). For food and pharmaceutical applications, we recommend a combination of CIP and periodic disassembly. -
Q: What gasket materials are available?
A: Standard options include EPDM (good for water and mild chemicals, up to 120°C), NBR (oil resistance, up to 130°C), and Viton (high temperature and aggressive chemicals, up to 200°C). Other materials such as PTFE or Kalrez are available upon request. -
Q: Can I get a heat exchanger with different flange ratings?
A: Yes, we can supply flanges in ANSI 150#, 300#, or DIN PN16/PN40 as per your requirement. The standard unit comes with flanges matching the design pressure (16 Bar). Let us know your connection standard. -
Q: What is the typical lead time?
A: For standard sizes, lead time is approximately 3–4 weeks after order confirmation. Custom designs may require 5–8 weeks depending on complexity. Express shipping from Qingdao is available at an additional cost. -
Q: Does the product come with a warranty?
A: Yes, we provide a 12-month warranty from the date of shipment against manufacturing defects. Extended warranty options are available upon request.
