What is stainless steel condenser tube?

Condenser tubes have an efficient design to condense the process fluid off of the tubes outside. The Stainless Steel Condenser Tubes are mostly found in heat exchangers. It is an eminent part of a condenser and evaporator refrigeration cycle and also can be found in a chiller for condensing steam in a surface condenser. Depending on the particular grade of stainless steel, the SUS 304L Tube And Fin Condenser offer a wide range of properties.

It can include good tensile strength, high corrosion resistance, etc. The choice of the grade actually depends on the particulars of the application. The SS Evaporator Tubes have a special role to play in heating, cooling, and reheating fluids and gases. The tubes are found in different sizes and they can be customized according to the client's requirements. They are widely used in thermal stations and nuclear power plants.

Testing performed by condenser tube manufacturers in india

There are different types of tests performed on the SS Solution Anneal Condenser Tubes by the manufacturers, like:

  • The leakage test helps to detect any leakage in the tubes.
  • The eddy current test lets you know if there is any discontinuity in the tubes.
  • The condenser test helps to confirm the thermal and hydraulic performances of the SS 304 Tubes .

Several other tests can be performed on these tubes according to the application needs and demands of the customers.

How many tubes are in a condenser?

A condenser can have 50,000 or more ASTM A269 Condenser Tubes. The total number of tubes required would depend on the overall heat transfer coefficient along with the diameter and suitable length of the tubes.

You can order SS solution anneal condenser tube and ASTM A269 condenser tubes in sizes from 6 mm to 219.1 mm OD
