• SPX offers advanced APV heat exchange solutions for fluid cooling, heating, condensing, and evaporation processes. Since the invention of the plate heat exchanger by APV in 1923, it has been a pioneer in applications such as stamping, forming, welding, sealing, and testing of plate materials.
  • In addition to providing industrial-grade plate heat exchangers with ASME U-Stamp certification, we also offer food hygiene grade plate heat exchangers certified by 3-A, FDA, and EHEDG.
  • Various plate material options: SS304, SS316, SS317, 254SMO, 654SMO, 904L, C22, C276, C2000, Nickel Alloy 200/201, Ti Gr.1, Ti Gr.11/Gr.17.
  • Maximum single plate area of 4.75m2 (approximately 4m high), maximum single interface diameter of φ500mm, maximum single processing flow rate of 4500 m3/hr.
  • Laser-welded semi-welded plate heat exchangers are also available.
  • With over 60 plate models, we can meet various heat exchange needs for liquid-liquid, evaporation, condensation, and gas-gas applications.

• Advantages of APV plate heat exchanger technology:
1. Reliable plate interlocking structure and added suspension function.
2. Advanced Easyclip embedded gaskets require no glue for fixing, saving installation and cleaning time.
3. Efficient bypass zone design ensures uniform fluid distribution between channels, reducing resistance and improving heat transfer efficiency.
4. Double-layer leak prevention technology prevents fluid mixing at corner holes and makes it easier to identify leak positions.
5. Combination of soft and hard plate channel assembly allows for flexibility in design with different types of corrugated plates.
6. Various corrugated plate designs provide greater design flexibility.

  • In the production process, the equipment used to achieve uniform emulsification or dispersion of products is called a homogenizer.
• Emulsification or dispersion refers to the phenomenon where solid-liquid or different phase liquids that cannot be mixed under normal conditions are subjected to fine mixing to achieve a uniform mixture. For example, the average particle size of fat globules in milk is typically 3μm to 22μm. After homogenization, it reduces to around 0.7μm to 1μm. Consequently, the buoyancy of fat globules disappears, and they can be fully mixed into the liquid (milk).
• A homogenizer consists of a positive displacement pump and a homogenizing valve. The pump forces the product to pass through an adjustable gap and valve seat under high pressure, causing turbulence and intense mixing, thus breaking down molecular structures to achieve emulsification or dispersion.

• Over 100 years of homogenizer experience.
• Specially developed and designed for high pressure.
• Operating flow rate = 11~60000 L/hr
• Operating pressure = 70~2000 Bar
• Diverse modules, can provide special equipment according to customer requirements, including general industrial grade, explosion-proof grade, or food-grade models.
• Homogenizing valve materials options: sanitary grade stainless steel, ceramic, tungsten carbide alloy, Stellite alloy steel.
• Equipment equipped with lubrication and cooling systems for lubricating plungers and plunger seals.
• The equipment can be cleaned online with cleaning solution or water using CIP.
• Available in production units or laboratory units.
• Sample experiment services are provided, please contact the Taiwan Heat Transfer Business Department if needed.

• Effects of high-pressure homogenization:
  • Reduce particle size
  • Improve product stability
  • Enhance viscosity and texture of products
  • Improve product hydration
  • Enhance product glossiness
  • Reduce the use of emulsifiers/stabilizers
  • Break down cells and extract intracellular substances
  • Increase chemical reactivity of substances
  • Enhance product absorption
  • Reduce molecular weight
