ST tube in tube heat exchangers find their application where fluids of high viscosity, density or high fiber or solid particle contamination are subjected to heat treatment, e.g. at waste water treatment plants.
The presence of different types of mechanical contamination causes their sedimentation on the walls, which blocks the flows in the exchanger. Large diameter of the ST exchanger tubes ensures their free flow and the dismountable design allows for mechanical cleaning of the heat exchange surface.
Stainless steel make ensures corrosion resistance and the simple design ensures long-term failure-free operation.

Tube in tube
The single section of the ST exchanger consists of two tubes with different nominal diameters. The tube with smaller diameter (product side) is installed inside the tube with the larger diameter (shell side).
