Fired Heat Exchangers

Selas Fluid's T-Thermal fired heat exchangers are manufactured to meet specific project requirements, offering standard and custom designs. With hundreds of fired heat exchangers delivered, we have experience with a wide variety of applications. Our engineers determine the optimum size heat exchanger for our clients' applications, and we deliver a packaged unit - ready for service after process piping and utility connections are made.
 

Fired Heat Exchangers - The Technology

Low Btu Fired Heat Exchanger
Low Btu fired heat exchanger
Fuel-fired heat exchangers heat a fluid without contact between hot combustion gases and the fluid being heated. The units are capable of raising temperatures of gas, liquid, air and steam to 1800o F (980o) and pressure up to 5000 psig (350 Kg/cm2). Single unit heat transfer duties run up to 50MM Btu/hr (15MW).
 

Fired Heat Exchangers - Advantages

  • Soot-free combustion with oil, gas, or alternative fuels
  • High thermal efficiency - low excess air. Flue-gas recycling and combustion air preheating are options designed to lower fuel costs.
  • Low pressure drop. Process fluid passes parallel, multiple tubes, saving on horsepower.
  • Wide operating range - our units provide high process flow and temperature turndowns; warm idles at zero flow
  • Fast startup and rapid response. The limited use of refractory reduces thermal mass and maintenance.
  • Quiet forced draft operation
  • Uniform heating prevents hot spots
  • Flexible tube coils accommodate thermal growth
  • The compact flame from HV or LV Vortex high-intensity swirl burners prevents tube impingement
  • Sulfur corrosion is limited via low excess air
  • Minimal maintenance
