Schmidt® SIGMADUAL Semi-Welded Plate Heat Exchangers
API Heat Transfer SIGMADUAL semi-welded plate heat exchangers feature plates that are welded using advanced laser welding techniques. Two plates are welded together and can be fitted with a Viton® O-Ring and/or Teflon® gasket liner. The resulting plate pack has every other plate fully serviceable, while maintaining integrity of the welded plate pair. This is especially suitable for critical fluids and gases, such as ammonia or caustic process chemicals where fluid loss is not acceptable. In the case of ammonia refrigeration, the reduced volume results in significant savings.

Schmidt® SIGMASHELL All-Welded Plate & Shell Heat Exchanger
Sealless and with a heat transfer surface area up to 700 m2, our SIGMASHELL laser-welded plate and shell heat exchangers are ideal for thermal treatment of liquid, vapor, and gas. SIGMASHELL is applicable in all industrial sectors, including chemical and petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, renewable energies, bio energy, power generation, pulp and paper, steel mills, and coking plants.
Operational limits.
- Operating pressures from vacuum to 150barg = 2176psig
- Operating temperatures from -328°F to 1022°F (-200°C to 550°C)
- Viscosities up to 8,000 mPas
Features.
- Available in all current plate materials
- Shell construction: all-welded or accessible to one or two sides
- Multi-pass possible for shell and plate side
- Calculations can be done for counter-current flow, co-current, and cross flow

Schmidt® SIGMAWIG All-Welded Plate Heat Exchangers
Our line of Schmidt® SIGMAWIG all-welded plate heat exchangers represents the most compact, rugged and cost-effective means of transferring heat in many industrial applications.
Built entirely without gaskets or with an O-ring type gasket between the all-welded plate pack and frame, they provide exceptional corrosion resistance. The exchanger features corrugated plates that produce highly turbulent flow in a true counter-current direction. The result is high efficiency in a very compact design. Due to the smaller size and reduced material content, welded plate heat exchangers can be the most economical heat transfer choice.
Reduced Liquid Volume
The standard design has all piping connections located on one end of the heat exchangers. This simplifies installation and maintenance costs. Many times, the piping alone is all that is required to adequately support the heat exchanger, thus eliminating support considerations and labor costs in packaged equipment.
API Heat Transfer welded plate heat exchangers have narrow flow channels and reduced liquid volume needs. Due to their efficiency, they can be selected to use less coolant.
Reliable Heavy-Duty Construction
The exchanger design features plates with computer-designed corrugations in a “chevron pattern” that is alternated from plate to plate. This yields a strong, unitized construction. There are two options for incorporating the welded plate pack into the pressure frame. The plate pack openings are joined to the nozzles of the pressure frame or for frequent temperature fluctuation. The sealing between plate pack and pressure frame is ensured by a standard O-ring sealing material like EPDM or by a special high resistant material like Viton or Kalrez. Gaskets common to other technologies are eliminated.
Schmidt® SIGMABRAZE Plate Heat Exchangers
Our SIGMABRAZE brazed plate heat exchangers represent the most compact, rugged and cost-effective means of transferring heat in many industrial, process, and refrigerant applications. Built from 316 stainless steel with copper brazing materials, they provide exceptional corrosion resistance. Due to the smaller size and reduced material content, they can be the most economical heat transfer choice.
Schmidt® SIGMA Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers
Plate heat exchangers use corrugated plates stacked between a fixed and movable pressure plate. As virtually all of the material is used for heat transfer, plate heat exchangers can have large amounts of effective heat transfer surface in a small footprint. It is not uncommon that a plate heat exchanger will have the same thermal capacity as a shell and tube five times larger. Our plate heat exchangers incorporate superior design features to ensure long-term performance and customer satisfaction.
Basco® U-Tube Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers
API Heat Transfer manufactures several variations of U-Tube heat exchangers. Both the Type 500 and Hub-Design are available in U-Tube configurations. However, to address the very basic of needs for industrial heating and cooling applications, the Model BWS and BW U-Tube heat exchangers offer highly standardized construction at a very attractive price. The BWS is designed for water-to-steam, while the BW is built for water-to-water service. Units are also available as immersion tank heat exchangers.
U-Tube Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger
Constructed in accordance with ASME Code, Section VIII, Division 1, these heavy duty U-Tube heat exchangers have built-in protection against damage caused by the inherent forces which occur during heating and cooling as the vessel thermally expands and contracts. As the one end of the bundle is free to float, the unit is safe even under exteme thermal cycling. This makes them ideal for use with steam as the heating medium.
