According to Alfa Laval, AlfaFusion is the result of years of research into materials and brazing technology, conducted in response to customer demands for exchangers offering a combination of compact size, greater mechanical strength, increased resistance to corrosion and higher levels of hygiene.
With its homogenous, all-stainless steel construction, the ability to withstand temperatures as high as 550C and pressures up 28Barg, the AlfaNova 400 is also suitable for a wide range of duties in areas such as refrigeration and sanitary processes where a combination of corrosion resistance and strength are essential.
This latest version also incorporates flanges instead of threaded connections to make it more suitable for use in the process industries.
