Pipeline Aftercoolers (PLAC)

Performance Notes

• PLAC tubes are effectively arranged to maximize heat transfer and reduce cooling water usage
• Removable tube bundle simplifies cleaning of both tube and shell sides, and reduces future maintenance costs
• Double packed floating tubesheet with “O” ring seal protection permits tube bundles to expand and contract without harmful strain or intermixing of shell and tube side fluids
• Tell-tale holes allow easy visual detection of leaks
• Cast iron moisture separator provides maximum efficiency in removing virtually all particulate matter over the entire operating range
• Separators are designed to bolt directly to the aftercooler without the need for spools, minimizing pressure drop and overall length
• Standard operating pressures are 75 to 150 PSI to meet most material and code requirements; units for use up to 300 PSI are available for specialized applications
