Open Rack Vaporizers (ORV)
Open Rack Vaporizers (ORV)
Cryonorm offers a full range of shop manufactured Open Rack Vaporizers (ORV).
In the Open Rack Vaporizer, seawater flows on the surface of panels with many heat exchanger tubes (star-fin tubes) to vaporize or heat up the fluid. Seawater used as a heat source can reduce the operating cost, and the simple open-rack structure brings easy operation monitoring, maintenance, and inspection.
Fluids vaporized or heated are LNG, ethylene, ethane, propane, butane, ammonia, LCO2, LH2 and other fluids non-corrosive to aluminum
With our design, we maximize shop fabrication and minimize field construction. No need for concrete buildings holding the tube panels, as per picture below a water drainage is sufficient.
Open Rack Vaporizer (ORV) contributes to the reduction of environmental impact as required heat for vaporization comes from sea or river water.
