Pipeline equipment for steam systems
ARI-Armaturen, which will be exhibiting on Stand C2, specialises in pipeline equipment for steam systems, thermal oil, and hot water, and is a subsidiary of a large German engineering company, reputed to have the largest valve stock in Europe. It says its ARI ENCOsys steam to water plate
heat exchange systems offer: n Reduced heat loss, thanks to their ‘extremely compact and efficient design’.
n Improved temperature control – a lower setpoint results in larger energy savings as the water flowing through the system is at a lower temperature.
n Thermal efficiency – by heating the secondary water
and sub- cooling the condensate in the same plate heat exchanger, ‘substantial energy savings’ can be achieved.
n Operational savings: ENCOsys requires a minimum level of servicing, which the company can undertake using its own in- house service engineers.
n Instantaneous hot water, ‘whatever the load conditions’, up to 2100 kW without the need for water storage.
