ASME SA516 Grade 70 Carbon Steel Baffle Plates for Heat Exchangers NACE MR0175 Compliant

ASME SA516 Grade 70 Carbon Steel Baffle Plates for Heat Exchangers NACE MR0175 Compliant

Our ASME SA516 Grade 70 Carbon Steel Baffle Plates are essential components in heat exchangers, designed to enhance thermal efficiency and optimize flow patterns. Baffle plates, also known as support plates, are used to direct fluid flow and increase turbulence, which facilitates better heat transfer.

Definition of Baffle Plates

Baffle plates are specially designed structural components that create barriers within heat exchangers. They promote the efficient distribution of fluids and ensure uniform heat exchange by directing the flow across the heat transfer surfaces.

Common Materials for Baffle Plates

Baffle plates are typically made from materials that offer durability and resistance to harsh conditions. Common materials include:

NACE MR0175 Testing

Our baffle plates undergo rigorous testing compliant with NACE MR0175, which sets guidelines for materials exposed to hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) environments. This testing ensures that our baffle plates resist sulfide stress cracking, ensuring longevity and safety in various applications.

The Role of Notches in Baffle Plates

It normally has the cut out to prevent a stagnant area between the support plate and the tubesheet.

1. Fluid Distribution: Ensures even distribution of fluids across the heat exchanger surface.
2. Pressure Drop Management: Helps to manage the pressure drop, optimizing the energy efficiency of the system.
3. Maintenance and Cleaning: Allows for easier access during maintenance, ensuring that the heat exchanger functions effectively over its lifespan.
