LNS - Line Precision Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers

A collaboration of practicality, versatility, durability, and a dash of novelty, the LENS heat exchangers break the mold with a new multi-functional, multi-dimensional, transformative ingenuity opening doors to unprecedented possibilities in fluid dynamics and process control.

The strength of the LENS series lies in its adaptive nature, allowing customization of standard products to optimize its effectiveness in varying applications. From hydronic heating to steam condensers, and all processes in between, the LENS offers clients unrivaled quality with the highest degree of flexibility.

The rugged, yet refined, stainless steel LENS heat exchanger features elements that are intrinsic to the heightened aptitude of the product.

The innovative use of 6mm stainless steel precision tubing in the mainstream heat recovery market, especially in the construction of steam condensers, elevates the level of product performance to new standards, allowing for a higher breadth of functionality. The densely packed tube bundle maintains a compact structure with smaller footprint requirements, while delivering more uniform heating and greater heat transfer potential.

Multiple stainless steel, interchangeable heads, readily fitted in the field, with a selection of configuration options, adjust for diversity in flow requirements. Single or multi-pass designs available to suit client needs. For maintenance purposes, heads are removable for unfettered access to the tube bundles.

Tube side connections can alter to enhance the thermal performance of the heat exchanger, without the need to compromise product selection. Large connection sizes on smaller diameter models are useful for low pressure vapor applications. Same side or alternating connection arrangements are possible to support existing piping infrastructure.

While most heat exchangers are developed to function in a singular position, the LENS line is designed to operate in both the horizontal and vertical mode, realizing the inherent advantages of each mode as required for specific cases, and accounting for changes of fluid phases and space constraints; thus, eliminating the need for ill-equipped, over or under-sized products. 

The reliability and sturdiness of the LENS heat exchangers rest on their materials of construction, and application support features. All parts of the unit are fabricated from 316 stainless steel for strength of structure, fully passivated and externally electropolished for advanced corrosion resistance. High grade Viton gaskets are used for a superior seal to handle a broad spectrum of fluids in chemical processes. Expansion joints are built in to handle a wide range of temperature differentials, while unique segmental baffles serve even and complete flow distributions.
