Aftermarket Spare Parts for Heat Recovery EquipmentSince Thermal Transfer Corporation's recuperators and heat exchangers have no moving parts, they do not require the customer to maintain an extensive spare parts inventory. However, spare tubes, spare tube bundles, or complete spare units can be provided upon request. Because of the long delivery time typically required to fabricate a recuperator or heat exchanger, we recommend purchasing replacement units in advance so they will be on hand when needed.

Convection RecuperatorsConvection recuperators (also referred to as "flue" or "canal" recuperators) are tubular heat exchangers that utilize convection heat transfer to preheat combustion air or gas for the purpose of saving fuel. By recovering heat from the hot waste gas exiting a furnace and transferring it to the combustion air feeding the burners, fuel usage can be reduced by an average of twenty-five percent (25%), and in many cases, greater savings are realized. Waste gas temperatures entering convection recuperators are usually in the 1500°F to 2000°F range, and combustion air preheat temperatures are usually in the 800°F to 1200°F range. |

Custom FabricationThermal Transfer Corporation employs a team of skilled fabricators, certified welders, and degreed engineers with an average of 15 years’ service. We have the expertise to handle most any large fabrication projects. We are specialists in high alloy stainless steel and tube assemblies as well as large carbon steel fabrications and assemblies. We build ammonia piping skid assemblies for the NOx reduction systems designed by Hamon Research-Cottrell. We also manufacture valve train piping systems and combustion control units. Our facility is ISO:9001 compliant and maintains ASME “U”, “S’, and “R” stamps as well as UL-508A for control panel fabrication. The quality of our products is assured through the use of every appropriate NDE testing process; including X-ray, dye penetrant, hydrostatic and pneumatic pressure testing. |

Fired HeatersFor over forty years, Thermal Transfer Corporation has supplied fired heaters for a wide range of industrial applications. Each is custom-made for the specific conditions involved, taking into account process and material temperatures, flow distributions, corrosion potential, plant space constraints and, of course, the degree of efficiency and reliability needed for optimal economic and safe service. Whether designed for atmospheric or high pressure, all of our indirect fired heaters utilize a two-step process: generating combustion gas, and subsequently heating the process fluid through a separate heat exchanger. |

Gas CoolersThermal Transfer Corporation gas coolers find the widest application in the area of environmental control, where hot dirty emissions from industrial processes must be cooled for entry into pollution control equipment. Most of our coolers employ ambient air as the cooling medium, although water-cooled units are furnished as well. A prime consideration in the design of all Thermal Transfer Corporation coolers is the necessity for keeping the heat transfer surfaces clean: arrangements are largely selected to allow continuous in situ cleaning utilizing soot blowers, shot or chain cleaning systems. Combined cleaning methods can be used for especially heavy carryover situations. |

Radiation RecuperatorsRadiation recuperators are high temperature heat exchangers that utilize radiation heat transfer to preheat combustion air or gas for the purpose of saving fuel. By recovering heat from the hot waste gas exiting a furnace and transferring it to the combustion air feeding the burners, fuel usage can be reduced by an average of thirty-five percent (35%), and in many cases, greater savings are realized. Waste gas temperatures entering radiation recuperators are usually in the 2000°F to 2500°F range, and combustion air preheat temperatures are usually in the 800°F to 1400°F range. |
