By inserting "hiTRAN" into the tubular heat exchanger, we can reduce fouling inside the tubes and achieve long-term operation!

The CALGAVIN-produced "hiTRAN" is a heat transfer enhancement element designed to improve the performance of heat exchangers, particularly intended for use in tubular heat exchangers. By inserting hiTRAN into the tube, turbulence is generated within the tube, significantly improving heat transfer efficiency. The benefits obtained from the hiTRAN heat transfer enhancement element are as follows: ✓ Improvement and enhancement of heat exchanger capacity ✓ Increase in tube-side heat transfer coefficient (up to 16 times) ✓ Reduction in heat exchanger surface area and weight ✓ Reduction in maintenance costs due to decreased fouling ✓ Energy savings due to reduced energy requirements ✓ Lower maintenance and installation costs As fouling inside the tube increases, the performance of the heat exchanger decreases, leading to more frequent cleaning. This occurs because the flow velocity at the tube wall is slow, allowing dirt to accumulate there. As a result, additional energy is required to restore the performance of the heat exchanger, leading to a decline in production efficiency. Naturally, maintenance costs also increase. Here, we will introduce the mechanism of fouling reduction in the tube by hiTRAN. *For more details, please refer to the materials or feel free to contact us.*

The "Mechanical Stitch Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact to the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

"MI-170 series" With RS-232C communication, measurement result output and setting data input/output can be performed. Up to 8 types of condition settings, such as upper and lower limit settings, can be configured. Pressure sensors can be selected from 4 types based on accuracy, gauge pressure, and differential pressure. The mounting size conforms to the DIN96 standard. By combining with the separate type air leak tester LPU-100 series, it can also be used as an air leak tester. "DG-960 series" Pressure sensors can be selected from 4 types based on accuracy, gauge pressure, and differential pressure. The mounting size conforms to the DIN96 standard. "MIZ-0175 series" A new multi-indicator that enhances the functionality of the versatile and high-performance conventional model "MI-170," improving operability and visibility through downsizing and the adoption of an LCD display. It allows a maximum sampling rate of 4000 times per second for stable measurements and is equipped with various correction functions and noise cancellation features, providing a wealth of functionalities.

● What is a flow meter? Flow meters measure flow rates using mass flow meters or laminar flow meters and perform pass/fail judgments based on flow rate criteria. They are ideal for measuring airflow and conducting performance tests. "FMZ-1063 series" This is a flow tester equipped with a mass flow meter. It offers high precision of ± 3.5 % of R.D. ± 1 digit (in the normal flow range). It features a time-saving function (scan measurement). The FMZ-1063 is a compact, all-in-one flow tester with various functions. "FU series" This is a flow measurement unit that integrates laminar and differential pressure sensors, making it smaller and lighter. When connected to a display indicator (model: MI-170), it can provide direct flow readings as well as pressure and flow judgments. "FLF-110 series" This is a laminar flow meter capable of measuring a wide range of flow rates from 2 NmL/min to 500 NL/min.

What is an Air Leak Tester? An "Air Leak Tester" is a device that pressurizes the inside (or outside) of a sealed workpiece with air and determines the presence of leaks based on pressure changes. When a master with no leaks and a workpiece with leaks are pressurized, the pressure on the workpiece side decreases, creating a pressure difference between the two. By measuring this pressure difference, the presence of leaks can be determined. Generally, differential pressure air leak testing is widely used, but Fukuda also offers products that utilize direct pressure leak testing and flow meters according to the leak rate, in addition to differential pressure leak testers. Since the air leak tester uses air as the measurement medium, it incurs no running costs and is environmentally friendly.
