Ecotherm's high capacity heat exchanger with patented free floating turbulator rods
Ecotherm heat exchangers with their patented free floating
turbulator rods are the most superior heat exchangers available.
They incorporate all of the advantages and non of the
disadvantages of other types of heat exchangers.
High capacity
Unlike conventional shell and tube heat exchangers,
Ecotherm's high capacity heat exchangers are equipped with
patented free floating turbulator rods for greatly increased
performance. The domestic water flows through the heat
exchanger at high speed, reaching final output temperature in
one single pass through the heat exchanger in less than 1
second.
Turbulent flow, contraflow
The turbulent flow of the thin film of domestic water greatly
increases the surface area mix of water in contact with heat
transfer tubes. Domestic water flows in the opposite direction
of the fluid in the primary circuit, resulting in the highest
possible temperature gradient across the tube walls over the
whole length of the heat exchanger. The exponentially
increased rate of heat transfer, coupled with the fast domestic
water flow speed of approximately 1.5 m/s greatly enhances
the overall performance to size ratio of the heat exchanger.
Compact
Due to increased performance thanks to the patented free
floating turbulator rods, Ecotherm's high capacity heat
exchangers are more compact than conventional shell and
tube heat exchangers.
Built-in anti-fouling
The high speed of water flow and the oscillating action of the
free floating turbulator rods prevent fouling deposits from
collecting in the heat exchanger. This feature ensures
maximum efficiency and optimum hygiene throught the lifelong
service of the heat exchanger.
Easily dismantled
The external configuration and maintenance friendly design of
the heat exchanger ensures minimum down-time for access
and inspection of internal parts.
Lifelong service
Ecotherm quality stainless steel AISI 316Ti ensures lifelong
service. TÜV-approved and certified industrial quality production
exclusively dedicated to stainless steel 316Ti ensures the
contamination-free purity of materials during fabrication.

Heat Transfer Technology
Patented free floating turbulator rods
The free floating turbulator rods are hard wearing and designed
for extremely long life. They fulfil many important functions:
z Efficient heat transfer - The free floating turbulator rods
in the centre of the heat exchanger tubes force thin films
of water to flow along the walls of the tubes. The high water
surface exposure per volume makes efficient heat transfer
possible. Thanks to the fast flow rate, Ecotherm High
Speed Heat Exchangers perform at around 3500 to 5000
W/m² K, which makes even low temperature output from
the boiler perfectly satisfactory for efficient operation.
z Turbulent flow - The free floating turbulator rods constantly
oscillate from side to side. This lateral movement causes
turbulent water flow in the tubes, which is beneficial for
z
z
efficient heat transfer. (Poor mixing caused by laminar
water flow would greatly reduce heat transfer efficiency).
High speed flow - The free floating turbulator rods cause
the water to pass through the heat exchanger at high
speed of approximately 1.6 m/s. This high speed and
turbulent flow prevents lime scale from depositing onto the
walls of the tube. The heat exchanger therefore remains
free of lime scale and maintains maximum efficiency over
a long period of time. (Lime scale deposits would act as
a heat insulator, greatly reducing the rate of heat transfer)
Self cleaning action - The constantly oscillating rods rub
any lime off the walls of the tubes, thus further ensuring
that maximum efficiency is maintained.
