Fluorotherm's sanitary shell and tube heat exchangers are designed for applications where chemical inertness to aggressive fluids is critical. The major applications for these units are in the semiconductor and ultrapure, environmental, laboratory and products finishing industries. These units have been designed with efficient heat transfer as the primary purpose, offering a cross flow heat exchanger with system fluid through shells

Sanitary Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger For Ultra-Pure Environment Heat Transfer with PTFE, FEP or PFA tubing coil housed in CPVC shell.
The tube side fluid flows through an ultrapure, chemically inert fluoropolymer pathway. The unit can be operated in true counterflow or in parallel flow mode. The unidirectional shell and tube side flows allow for complete purging of the unit after a batch operation is completed. Also, since there is no flow reversal, the formation of stagnant pockets is eliminated during continuous or batch operation.
Standard shell side materials available are PVC and CPVC. Tubing is available in PTFE, FEP, and PFA Selection of tubing type is based on, among other factors, the maximum internal pressure and the expected pressure drop* during operation. Tube side fittings are available either in PFA or PVDF. In order to help you select materials, we have included the "Pressure Drop" and the "Maximum Operating Limits" for your reference.
* Liquid flows through the unit determine the pressure drop for a given tubing type.
Notes:
a. Shell Side Materials: PVC (P), CPVC (C) Operating temperatures above 140°F for PVC and 200°F for CPVC are not recommended.
b. Tubing Materials: PTFE (T), FEP (F), PFA (P), PVDF (K)
c. Fitting Materials: PTFE (T), PFA (P), PVDF (K)
d. Heat Transfer Area: Ranges from less than 1.0 to 55.0 sq.ft
e. Tubing Type (Code): 1, 2 or 3.
Tubing type corresponds to size
For example, a 4 sq.ft unit with CPVC shell, FEP type1 tubing, and PFA tubeside fittings is described by Model CFP-641.
