Chemical and process industry

The durable structure and a broad range of materials make -Plate&Shell-® Heat Exchangers an ideal solution for many different applications in the chemical and process industry.

Energy industry

Vahterus -Plate&Shell-® Heat Exchangers combine the best characteristics of traditional plate heat exchangers and shell & tube heat exchangers. PSHE heat exchangers are efficient and durable, and they offer compact solutions for many applications in the energy industry.

Refrigeration

Vahterus -Plate&Shell-® Heat Exchangers (PSHE) have many benefits for advanced refrigeration applications such as evaporators, condensers, cascades, desuperheaters and oil coolers. PSHE are effective, durable and versatile due to their unique shell construction, together with fully welded plates. This makes PSHE ideal, also for contractors who need compact size and low refrigerant charge. Vahterus Heat Exchangers are suitable for all refrigerants, especially natural media such as ammonia and carbon dioxide.

Oil & Gas

Vahterus PSHE combines the benefits of plate & frame and shell & tube heat exchangers. PSHE can either be described as a fully welded, high integrity plate heat exchanger, with no gaskets; or a generic alternative to shell & tube, approx. 25% of the footprint, displaying both space and weight benefits. PSHE is an ideal solution for Upstream Processes, such as Oil & Gas Production, Handling and Transportation; and Downstream Processes, such as Refineries and Petrochemical Plants.
