Hi all, first time poster,
I'm hoping someone out there can provide some direction for me, I need to procure a cooling jacket for a pipe.
can someone recommend a vendor or a model
I have consulted several vendors in my locality and they have not provided any solution.
Something like the heating jacket in the link below, but with a cooling medium running through it, instead of the heating element
I cannot get a suitable production window to install an "in line" BPHE or other conventional HX on this line before the summer. That constraint is what is driving this modification toward a "wraparound" solution.
BRIEF
A purified water line is operating at a high temperature during summer months and triggering alarms, and also damaging filters due to the high temperature.
The water must be cooled upstream of the pump, filters and associated alarms.
The purified water loop in in constant production use, so a non invasive solution, one which does not require a shutdown production window, is preferred.
The solution as envisaged by the client is a wrap around or bolt on cooling jacket, which does not require line breaks into the purified water line.
SYSTEM PARTICULARS
Medium = purified water
Purified water flow rate = Maximum 800 litres / hour
Pipe type ID ¾” or 20mm ASME BPE 316 Stainless steel
Max length for contra wraparound o = 2200mm
Water alarm temperature = 30 C
Max water temperature = 35 C
Desired temperature less than = 20 C *NB it may be desirable to over design the system to ensure no 30 C alarms are ever triggered.
EST 10- 20kw cooling max
Area of pipe exposed = 2.2 *3.14*.01*2 = .14 m2
K or U value between pipe and Jacket = TBC
