Abstract
A device for pressurizing a plate bundle which is arranged in a leakproof vessel (2) and comprises a stack of plates which are parallel to one another to form a first circulation circuit for a first fluid under pressure and a second circulation circuit for a second fluid under pressure. The device includes a first conduit (15) for connecting the vessel (2) to the delivery (10) of the first fluid continuously feeding the vessel (2), a second conduit (16) for connecting the vessel (2) to the delivery (12) of the second fluid feeding the vessel (2) in the event of stoppage of the delivery of the first fluid, and controls (20) for feeding of the vessel (2) with the second fluid.
Claims9
Device for pressurizing a plate bundle, especially for a plate heat exchanger, said plate bundle being arranged in a leakproof vessel and comprising a stack of metal plates which are parallel to one another to form a first circuit for circulating a first fluid under pressure and a second circuit for circulating a second fluid under pressure, said first fluid being at a pressure which is higher than the pressure of said second fluid, said device comprising a first conduit for connecting the vessel to a delivery of said first fluid continuously feeding said vessel, a second conduit for connecting said vessel to the delivery of said second fluid feeding said vessel in the event of stoppage of the feed of said first fluid, and means for controlling feeding of said vessel with said second fluid.
