Quotes - Engineering - SalesRequest a CIP Heat Exchanger Quote
Tell us the circuit and the numbers and we size the heater. The form below carries the fields a quote needs; fill in what you know and leave the rest. An application specialist reads every request and comes back with a construction, materials and a price.
What a Complete Quote Carries
These are the items sales needs to price a heater without a long phone call. Each one changes the shell, the surface or the gasket, so the more of them you send the closer the first quote lands.
- Circuit: caustic, acid, hot-water rinse or recovery
- Chemical and concentration, such as 1–2% sodium hydroxide
- Tank recirculation or once-through inline
- Flow in gpm, or the line size if that is all you have
- Inlet and target temperature of the solution
- Steam pressure at the heater inlet, not at the boiler
- Which side fouls, and whether the bundle or plate pack must come out
- Sanitary drainable or utility stainless; connection type and size
- Full unit, or a new bundle or plate pack only
If You Are Replacing a Heater
Send the nameplate or the OEM model designation, the connection sizes and the shell or frame dimensions that have to be met. If the old unit was a hot-water generator on the rinse and sanitize water, add the rinse gpm and the temperature it must reach at the return.
Photographs of the nameplate and the connections save a round of questions. Say whether you want the complete heater or only a new bundle or plate pack to fit what is already in place.
After You Send It
What Happens Next
1.
We Read the Duty
An application specialist checks the circuit, the concentration and the temperatures against the steam you have. Missing figures are filled from standard values and flagged so you can correct them before anything is built.
2.
We Pick the Construction
Steam-to-solution goes shell-and-tube with steam in the tubes; recovery and modest-pressure hot water go gasketed plate. The gasket is matched to the chemical, with the acid step called out rather than assumed.
3.
We Size the Surface
Duty in Btu/h, steam approach and a solution-side fouling allowance of 0.001–0.002 set the surface. We also check that the bundle can be pulled or the plate pack opened in the room you have.
4.
You Get the Quote
The quotation states construction, materials, elastomer, rating, connections and price, with every assumption written out. Questions go back to the same specialist who sized it.
