External approvals All our products are delivered with full traceability and verified functionality. A SWEP BPHE is approved by leading independent third-party international bodies: Canada: Canadian Standard Association (CSA) Japan: The High Pressure Gas Safety Institute of Japan (KHK) USA: Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Europe: Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) SWEP also provides design approvals from the following independent bodies: UK: Lloyds Register Norway: Det Norske Veritas (DNV) USA: American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) Korea: Korean Register of Shipping (KR) Italy: Registro Italiano Navale (RINA) France: Bureau Veritas Germany: Germanicher Lloyd Japan: Nippon Kaiji Kyokai, Class NK Size A BPHE Is extremely compact. Installing a BPHE leads to an 85-90% reduction in volume and weight compared with a shell & tube exchanger of the same capacity. The BPHE footprint can be as small as one tenth of the shell & tube footprint. This means great design freedom for every application – and reduced installation costs. Small hold-up volumes The BPHE system holds only a fraction of the heat transfer medium. This implies lower initial costs, and the surrounding system components will probably become smaller and cheaper. In refrigerant systems, lower hold-up volumes are also an environmental advantage. Maximizing material About 95% of the material is used to transfer heat. There is no "dead zone" outside gaskets because there is no need for gaskets. With a BPHE you get up to 25% better capacity utilization compared with a plate-and-frame heat exchanger with rubber gaskets, and up to 10 times better compared with a shell & tube heat exchanger. Performance The highly turbulent flow inside the BPHE makes it possible to exploit the benefits of working with small temperature differences. A BPHE operates efficiently even at temperature differences as low as 1K. Customized solutions Every application is unique, whether it is a heat pump, chiller, or oil cooler. We know this because we have supplied customized BPHE solutions to thousands of customers worldwide. Although we have customized each product, we have also mass-produced the solutions cost-effectively. This may seem like a contradiction, but actually it is a matter of utilizing the BPHE concept to the full: simply mass-producing components and then combining them into a completely customized product.
