[lawrence1]

Hi to all,
I have been asked to quote to refrigerate 2 small coldrooms and one small freezer room,,,aboad a new 50 metre ocean going vessell,,,,,all rooms are around 5 square metres,,,,,can anyone advise as to which sea water condenser is best,,,s/s /Titanium?(shell in tube/brased plate?)i am fine with the evaporators/control systems but have no experience with salt water cooled condensers.
Thanks

I have for many years specified helical titanium units, for the aquaculture industry, and they have worked without fault.
In the aquaculture industry the product [clams, mussels crabs ect] add contaminants to the water which will eventually block a plate exchanger but not the helical.

Bitzer do a good range of sea water resistant tube condensers. check their website

Like Aupanner said, Bitzer does a good sea water resistant condenser.

Have about 800 in operation and no problems, some are 10 years old.
