Why are Stainless Steel Steam Heat Exchangers Commonly Used in Industrial Dryers?
Outstanding Corrosion Resistance
Core Advantage. The washing environment is humid, and chemicals such as detergents, bleaches (chloride ions), and fabric softeners may volatilize or enter the heat exchanger via lint, creating a corrosive environment. Stainless steel (commonly grades 304 or 316) effectively resists chemical corrosion and oxidation, offering a service life far exceeding that of copper materials.
Withstands High Steam Pressure and Temperature
Industrial dryers typically utilize higher-pressure steam (e.g., 0.8MPa or greater) to achieve elevated drying temperatures. Stainless steel's strength and pressure resistance make it ideally suited for these high-pressure, high-temperature industrial conditions.
Exceptional Structural Strength and Durability
Industrial equipment demands continuous, high-intensity operation. Stainless steel withstands fan vibrations, thermal expansion/contraction stresses, and potential physical impacts without deformation or damage.
Adaptability to Diverse Media
Beyond steam, certain designs accommodate high-temperature thermal fluids, offering flexibility for specialized processes.
Hygienic and Easy to Clean
Stainless steel surfaces are smooth, resisting lint and dirt accumulation. Any deposits are easily removed.
