Hub Type Heat Exchangers
Basco/Whitlock Hub-Design Heat Exchangers
Similar to the API Basco Type 500 heat exchangers, API Heat transfer offers an extensive line of hub type heat exchangers that are pre-engineered to provide the cost and design advantages associated with standard heat exchangers. API offers hub replacement exchangers for their Basco, Whitlock and Ketema designs as well as other manufacturers. Sizes from 2” shell diameter to 8” with a variety of materials and tube diameters make Hub exchangers a very flexible alternative to custom designed heat exchangers.
