SHELL & TUBE EXCHANGER - Seamless Weld, Uniform Flow for Chillers
Shell and tube heat exchangers offer compact construction, high pressure rating and easy cleaning, ideal for commercial refrigeration.
Kilterra customizes heat transfer area, connections and materials to customer operating conditions with stable batch delivery.
Kilterra heat exchangers are custom-engineered to customer operating conditions with stable batch delivery and technical support.
Six core advantages that keep your refrigeration system protected around the clock
A seamless steel-tube shell with no circumferential welds removes weld-leak risk at the source.
A unique internal baffle design distributes refrigerant evenly on the shell side, avoiding local poor transfer.
Passes 230,000 pressure-fatigue cycles, far beyond industry norms, for frequent start/stop duty.
The same unit works as condenser or evaporator by changing connection positions, lowering inventory.
Refrigerant side 4.2MPa / water side 1.5MPa for high-pressure refrigerant systems.
KLDS-25 to KLDS-130 cover 25-130kW for commercial and industrial duty.

Widely deployed across commercial and industrial refrigeration
Core heat-transfer component in industrial water-cooled chillers.
Stable transfer in chemical, pharmaceutical and process cooling.
Evaporation/condensing in water-source and ground-source heat pumps.
Shell-and-tube transfer in large cold and freezer rooms.
Kilterra delivers professional refrigeration component solutions with OEM/ODM support.
When specifying a heat exchanger for chillers or commercial refrigeration, confirm the duty in kW, refrigerant type, and the temperature approach required between water and refrigerant, since a tighter approach increases tube count and cost. Verify the shell and tube materials suit the fluid: seamless steel for standard R134a and R404A duty, or stainless steel where ammonia or corrosive water is involved. Check the pressure rating against your condensing pressure, and confirm connection sizes match existing pipework to avoid adapters. Kilterra supplies these units to OEMs across Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, with batch testing and documentation for export compliance.
