Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers supplied by ATR-GLASS have unique features. Instead of ordinary seals with gland packings and ‘O’rings, there is an integral ferrule in the sealing bush, making a clean perfect seal. Also the tie rods are glass as standard.
The Heat Exchanger is well standardized, it is easy to procure spares.
