G'day to all,
Back in Nov. '03, the topic of spiral exchangers failure was debated and the consensus was that Alfa Laval didn't seem to have the fabrication under control, hence the H/E were prone to failure under certain circumstances.
I'm in process of evaluating a new SPHE design by Alfa Laval and the previous issues just appear to raise again. After lengthy google-ing, looking for other people experience with AL H/E failure, would anyone with such experience give us a bit of guidance or insight on AL fabrication issues?
Thanks in advance,
Cheers,
