Heat Exchangers
SCO with silicon carbide tubes, glass lined
For over 130 years, Pfaudler is the leader in developing new technologies to meet the highly specific chemical processing needs of its clients. One reason why our glass-lined equipment is trusted by over 90% of the world's top chemical companies is the sheer reliability of our reaction technologies and comprehensiveness of our glasslined accessories. These technologies are critical to the safe containment of corrosive contents, maintaining the vessel pressure and ensuring the final batch quality. In short, our glass-lined technologies are absolutely integral to an effective process.

SCO Heat Exchangers
Glass-lined with silicon carbide tube bundle
The SCO series is a range of high efficiency glass-lined heat exchangers, with silicon carbide tube bundle for use with highly corrosive fluids.
Typical application
The SCO heat exchanger is well suited for a very wide variety of uses: heating, cooling, evaporating and condensing.
Heat transfer surface
0,3 to 73 m2 (3 to 788 sq.ft)
Construction design
The SCO heat exchanger design is based on the traditional shell and tube with fixed tube sheets configuration.
Tube sheets and design data
The tube sheets can be supplied into two versions: either PTFE or glass-lined. The version with PTFE tube sheets has the following operating range (tube and shell side): Dimensions: Max. DN 300 (12") Pressure: -1 to 6 bar (FV to 90 PSIG) Temperature: -30 C to +165 C. ** The GlasSiC version has glass-lined tubesheets with a wider operation range: Dimensions: Max. DN 300 (12").
Pressure: -1 to 6 bar (FV to 90 PSIG) Temperature: -30C to +200 C. ** The tube sheets of the GlasSiC version can be double to prevent any contact between product and heating or cooling media in the event of leakage in the joints between tubes and tubesheet. This double tubesheet is provided with a leak collectiong circuit that can be alarmed to give instantaneous warning of leakage. The double tube sheets can be supplied with the glass-lining on shellside, tubeside or both. (*) (**)

SCO Heat Exchangers
Glass-lined with silicon carbide tube bundle
Constructional features
The bundle is formed by Hexoloy SA tubes (a special type of silicon carbide).
The shell and heads can be in glasslined steel, stainless steel or carbon steel depending on the corrosiveness of the process fluid.
The corrosive fluid can flow in the shell side, tube side or both at the same time. If there is no particular necessity, shellside flow is preferred.
Each tube is fixed individually to the tubesheet by a special system with double O-Rings. This permits very high operating pressures and wide temperature variations. The tubes are free to expand or to contract but their movement is limited within the sleeves pressing the O-Rings.
The heat transfer on the shellside is optimized by baffles which also support the tubes to minimize their vibration. Baffles, spacers and tie-rods are of glass-reinforced PTFE.
FDA approval on request .

SCO Heat Exchangers
Hexoloy SA SiC tube bundle
The Hexoloy SA used for the heat exchanger tubes is produced by pressureless sintering of ultra-pure submicron alpha silicon carbide powder. The sintering process (above 2000 C) resultes in self-bonded, fine grain (less than 10m) SiC product which is extremely hard, lightweight, virtually not porous, with an as-fired finish and a greater than 98% theoretical density. Hexoloy SA is highly resistant to corrosion, erosion, sliding wear, high temperature and thermal shock. Thanks to its exceptional physical and chemical properties the Hexoloy SA can be used for critical applications where it can replace at the same time ceramics or high alloy.
Corrosion resistance
Hexology SA contains no free silicon, which makes it highly chemically resistant in both oxidizing and reducing environments. The virtually universal corrosion resistance of Hexoloy SA permits superior performance in environments of hot gases and liquids including strong acids and bases, even at extremely high temperatures.
Erosion resistance
Hexoloy SA is one of the hardest high performance materials available: second only to diamonds, 50% harder than tungsten carbide and ten times harder than conventional stainless steel. This extreme hardness combined with high purity and fine micro-structure made Hexoloy SA particularly resistant to wear and erosion under mechanically abrasive conditions.
Thermal properties
The thermal conductivity is so high that makes the SiC wall as virtually non-existent in resisting heat transfer processes. Because of this high thermal conductivity combined with a low coefficient of thermal expansion, Hexoloy SA is very resistant to thermal shock and will survive rapid thermal cycling as compared to conventional materials.
Mechanical properties
Hexoloy SA exhibits excellent strength at room temperature and maintains that strength even at elevated temperatures due to its single phase fine grain structure. Hexoloy SA's compressive strength is 10 times greater than its tensile strength.
