In the past, most centrifugal, absorption, and reciprocating condenser and evaporator vessels were constructed using prime surface and 19 FPI (fins per inch) copper tubing. Today's technology allows us to retube your unit and install newer high efficiency tubes with the same wall thickness but with 25-50% more surface area. When we retube a machine, we always try to upgrade it for you to provide more efficiency by specifying the highest possible FPI. Internal enhancements also improve heat transfer as it forces the water to spin thru the tubes creating a higher pressure drop across the heat exchanger.
We can provide internally and externally enhanced tubes in several alloys.
We carry an extensive inventory of Cal-Fin tubes, and can furnish any tube configuration you desire in a range of alloy materials. All materials meet commercial ASME B111, B543, B359, B-338 and Navy Mil-T22214 and Mil-T15005 specifications.
