Pelmar Engineering

Transferring Wasted Heat Into Efficiency

Everyone is looking for ways to be more energy efficient, particularly in an industrial or commercial setting. Noren heat exchangers transfer heat between two or more fluids or gases, without the two materials coming into contact with each other. This conserves energy that might be otherwise be wasted. It can also increase efficiency of engines and machines. Let Pelmar Engineering Ltd. help you find the right product for your application. We are among the leading heat exchanger suppliers in Canada.

Heat Exchanger Applications

Heat exchangers are used in many industries and applications.

  • Food service – breweries and other food processing plants
  • Marine – marine oil coolers
  • Plants – hydraulic oil coolers
  • Power generation – manifold heat exchangers and air cooled heat exchangers
  • Dairy heat exchangers

Choosing the Right
Heat Exchanger

There are many different types of heat exchangers on the market that work to transfer heat from one substance to another. When choosing an industrial heat exchanger, keep these factors in mind:

  • The type of substances that are flowing through the exchanger and their characteristics
  • The required output and temperature differentials
  • Size limitations of where the exchanger will be installed
  • Flow rate of the fluids involved
  • Costs – both installation and maintenance

Heat Exchangers Utilize
Wasted Resources

Heat exchangers can be customized to fit most any application. Ask our engineers to help you understand how a heat exchanger can fit into your process to increase efficiency. Pelmar Engineering Ltd. works with only the best heat exchanger suppliers, like Noren, to help your business find better ways to operate. Contact us to get more information.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Noren Heat Exchangers

Noren heat exchangers stand out for the following characteristics:

  • Energy Recovery: Capture and reuse wasted heat from machinery, boilers, or processes, reducing energy costs by up to 30%.
  • Hazardous Location Certification: UL-approved models (air-to-air and air-to-water) safely operate in volatile environments like chemical plants or refineries.
  • Customization: Large variety of sizes and dimensions, in NEMA 12, 4, 4X and hazardous location certified coolers.
  • Durability: Corrosion-resistant materials (copper, stainless steel, carbon steel) ensure longevity in harsh conditions, from marine applications to food processing.

Consider these factors:

  • Environment: Choose the cooler that is certified for your environment, whether it’s indoor, outdoor, or hazardous location.
  • Heat Load: The heat load needs to be calculated based on internal heat, outside temperature, and cabinet size.
  • Desired internal temperature: decide what maximum temperature is allowed inside the cabinet. Don’t go below what is allowed. It cost money. If the desired temperature is below ambient, you ‘ll need cooling water.
  • Maintenance Needs: Gasketed plate exchangers allow easy disassembly for cleaning, whereas brazed units are leak-proof but require system flushing.
