Heat exchanger rental – mobile plate heat exchangers up to 1,000 kW
Heat exchanger rental for temporary heating, cooling and system separation
We rent out mobile plate heat exchangers in titanium and 316 stainless steel – gasketed and brazed – ready for immediate delivery. Our units handle −20 to +160 °C and up to 30 bar, with heating capacities up to 1,000 kW and cooling capacities up to 500 kW per unit. Most fit on a standard European pallet and can be installed indoors or outdoors.
Every unit is delivered complete with couplings, transitions and hoses, and we can add a shunt to hit the exact temperatures you need.
Emergency heat exchanger rental: if a heat exchanger fails, we size a replacement from our rental fleet and add shunts and accessories to match your parameters – ready for dispatch at short notice.
When to rent a heat exchanger
- Temporary replacement while your own heat exchanger is cleaned, tested or repaired
- Hydraulic separation between two systems, or pressure relief
- Heating or cooling of seawater, brackish water and freshwater in aquaculture
- Test rigs and commissioning that need precise temperatures
- Emergency heat transfer when a permanent unit fails
Sized for your process
Cost and performance depend above all on LMTD – the temperature difference across the exchanger. We size each unit with dedicated software, based on capacity, temperatures, surface area, pressure drop and the media involved, so you get the smallest unit that does the job.
The choice of fluid matters too. In the food industry, non-toxic propylene glycol becomes viscous at low temperatures, which raises pressure drop and reduces performance. With non-toxic Kilfrost ALV, a much smaller exchanger can often do the same job.
Project example: Johan Castberg
For the Johan Castberg project, we delivered six mobile heat exchangers with a combined capacity of 4,600 kW for testing on board the vessel.
Cleaning while your unit is out of service
While your own heat exchanger is out of service, we can also clean it. Using mobile CIP equipment, we recently restored two large seawater heat exchangers that had lost heat transfer capacity.
Delivered across Europe
We deliver within 24 hours with installation support, and our emergency line is staffed 24/7/365. We are also a heat exchanger distributor and can supply a new unit if you decide to buy.
