A star player in many processes and systems, heat exchangers are critical in achieving desired temperature regulation. Understanding heat exchangers, with their various types and applications where they excel, is necessary for those working in fields such as engineering, manufacturing, and energy. This article takes a closer look and provides valuable insight into the interesting […]
Here is a custom skid our team built for a customer that specializes in sustainable packaging. The customer needed a way to control the temperature of oil in a tank for use in their manufacturing process. To accomplish this, our team custom-engineered a skid using an assortment of fluid handling components from some of our […]
Customer: Metal Manufacturer Need/Application: Customer was looking to install new equipment to speed up their manufacturing. Solution: Built a Xylem system that could take 120°F of water and cool it to 90°F at 40 GPM. The system included the following: 2 pumps (duplex pump with VFD controls, pressure switches and alternator), control panel, differential pressure switch, heat exchanger, […]
We worked with a customer to develop a heating skid to keep their product (Mixture of RO Water and Dimethylformamide) temperatures in bulk storage tanks at the proper temperature. When they needed to transfer the product to the production line for use, it was already at the necessary temperature, filtered to specification and ready for […]
We recently had a customer that needed to build a temperature control skid that used a Dean pump to pump Therminol out of a storage tank and send it though a heating or cooling heat exchanger to control the temperature of the oil by the uses of control valves. The heating heat exchanger was a […]
This water tempering skid was designed for an aerosol and bag on valve filling manufacturer. The manufacturer needed a way to heat up 194 gallons of batch water in their pressurized tank (able to fill 75 cans per minute), so they could test their product can’s integrity at 135 degrees Fahrenheit. The water tempering skid […]
Here is a cooling skid we just finished for a customer that is using the skid to cool engine coolant, oil, fuel and air at an engine manufacturer. We are pumping a 50% glycol mixture and cooling it down from 195°F to 133°F at 80 GPM. This was developed for a test stand that is […]
Pictured below is a cooling skid designed for an orthopedic product manufacturer who makes artificial replacement parts for the human body. The customer needed a way to keep the air compressors and air dryer used in their production process from overheating. Our solution was a system that utilizes a cooling tower. The system recirculates cool […]
Here we helped a customer build a series of chemical treatment recirculating skids that heated and filtered the chemical before it was sent off to the process. The overall system was designed for 75 GPM at 40 PSI. We utilized a Goulds 3756 centrifugal pump, Standard Xchange Plate & Frame heat exchanger, Eaton Filters, Dixon […]
Customer: Waste Disposal Provider Need/Application: Needed to heat a 6,000 gallon tank of glycerin. Solution: Provided a skid unit with a Blackmer Gear (formerly EnviroGear) pump to recirculate glycerin from the tank into both the Standard Plate and frame heat exchanger. The skid also has a electric heater to heat the water with a Xylem pump to recirculate […]
Often times, when creating, transporting or using chemicals, they require a great deal of care and they must follow strict guidelines. Finding the right equipment to handle such toxic and hazardous material is paramount to maintaining safe and accident-free conditions. A customer needed to keep antifreeze circulated through the tankers to keep the chemical from […]
We just sent this cart out to a customer to get installed. We worked with this customer to design and build a solution for recycling used oil from a transmission test system and refine it for re-use. It is part of a larger transmission test system that is used for testing on several types of […]
We just recently put the finishing touches on two complex cooling skids for a Wisconsin foundry that was installing a new line. They were designed to re-use spent cooling tower water, which would then run through one side of a Standard Xchange heat exchanger and then cool a glycol mixture on the other side of the Standard […]
Do you need to cool, heat or maintain temperature of sensitive liquids? Reach out to us to help you size the right heat exchanger for your application. We have Xylem – Standard Xchange Pre-engineered Shell & Tube, Brazed or Fan units on the shelf ready to go or we can help you design a custom […]
