Compabloc Condenser

• Large Gas Inlet
• Cross Flow design
• Short Flow Path

• Low pressure drop
• Good thermal optimization
• Self Draining (both sides)

Shell and Tube Condenser
With tube side condensing, condensate film
builds-up, and restricts the gas from contacting
the tube wall, lowering condensing efficiency.
