1. 316L has strong corrosion resistance. Plate heat exchangers are often used to handle corrosive media such as water and chemical solutions. 316L stainless steel is less susceptible to rust and corrosion when exposed to these media, preventing damage to the heat exchanger plates and extending the life of the equipment. But some ordinary stainless steels will develop rust after a short period of use, affecting heat exchange performance.
2. 316L has excellent thermal conductivity. The core function of a heat exchanger is to transfer heat. 316L stainless steel has excellent thermal conductivity, allowing for rapid heat transfer between media, improving heat exchange efficiency and meeting the heat requirements of applications such as industrial production and domestic water heating.
3. 316L also offers excellent toughness and ease of processing. The plates of the plate heat exchanger require a specific corrugated pattern to facilitate the flow of the medium and the heat exchange. 316L stainless steel has extremely high plasticity and is less prone to fracture and deformation when processed into these special shapes. This ensures the flatness and accuracy of the plates, enabling them to fit more closely together and reducing heat loss.
More, it is high temperatures resistance and stable at low temperatures. 316L stainless steel maintains stable performance, resisting cracking or performance degradation due to temperature fluctuations, making it suitable for heat exchange needs under varying temperature conditions.
