Aspen Stainless Steel Tube-Fin Heat Exchangers

Tube Material Stainless Steel; Fin Material Copper; 400-2,700 W; Liquid Pressure Drop 0.1-0.4 bar; Air Pressure Drop 12.46-37.37 Pa; Fan Plate Integrated

Aavid-Boyd’s (formerly Lytron’s) Aspen Series of stainless steel tube-fin heat exchangers combines low price and low pressure drop with excellent heat transfer and superior fluid integrity. These heat exchangers are ideal for applications where deionized water or corrosive fluids are used.

When a slightly lower performance/size ratio is acceptable, the Aspen Series offers better value with 80% of the performance of the 4000 Series at approximately 50% of the cost. The Aspen Series also has lower air and liquid side pressure drops than the 4000 Series.

Heavy-walled, seamless stainless steel tubes are expanded into copper fin with an extruded full collar. The copper fin and the excellent metal-to-metal contact between the tube and the fin collar ensure optimum thermal performance.

All wetted surfaces are 316L stainless steel, making them ideal for high purity and/or corrosive coolants such as deionized water. The welded stainless steel frame and fan plate offer durability and strength.

Aavid-Boyd’s Aspen Series of heat exchangers with 0.5 mm tube wall thickness are 100% leak tested to 150 psi (10.3 bar). The integrated fan plate acts as a plenum to ensure uniform air-flow distribution through the core, thus maximizing performance. It also enables easy fan installation.

With the Aspen Series, Aavid-Boyd’s proprietary manufacturing process expands the tubes into the copper fin without the use of oils and our liquid return design eliminates potential particle trapping sites which can contaminate cooling fluid. Argon-purged welded joints further ensure cleanliness.

Aspen heat exchangers can be manufactured in custom sizes and tube configurations to meet your thermal and mechanical specifications. Inlet/outlet positions, fittings, paints and other coatings are available. Assemblies including fans and other components can also be supplied. Please get in touch with the AMS Technologies thermal technology experts to discuss your customized heat exchanger solution!
