AlfaNova-52-120P
The Alfa Laval S.p.A. AlfaNova-52-120P is a plate heat exchanger from the AlfaNova family and is listed for marine heat-transfer service. AlfaNova units use a compact all-stainless plate construction with fusion-bonded joints rather than conventional elastomer gaskets, making the family suitable where copper brazing or gasketed construction is undesirable. On board, such an exchanger may be installed in cooling, heating or heat-recovery circuits when its materials and approved operating envelope match the service. Heat passes through corrugated plate channels while the two media remain separated inside the plate pack. The suffix in the supplied model name distinguishes this configured variant from neighbouring AlfaNova entries, but plate count, heat-transfer area, pressure class and connection details must be confirmed from the exact unit documentation rather than inferred from the name. For allowable pressures, temperatures, cleaning chemistry and other exact limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Service & Maintenance
Trend temperatures, pressures and pressure drop and investigate gradual loss of thermal performance. Inspect external surfaces, connections, supports and adjacent piping for leakage, corrosion, vibration and excessive loads. Use an approved flushing or cleaning-in-place method compatible with the exchanger materials and deposits because the bonded plate pack is not normally opened for routine plate replacement. Investigate any indication of internal cross-contamination promptly. Refer to the manufacturer documentation for exact operating and cleaning limits.
