AlfaNovaM
Leverage Alfa Laval’s patented AlfaFusion technology with the AlfaNovaM marine heat exchangers. Each unit features fusion-bonded construction from 100% stainless steel—eliminating the need for gaskets, copper, or nickel. This advanced design delivers outstanding corrosion resistance and high thermal efficiency. AlfaNovaM is engineered for demanding ammonia applications, including reliquefaction and fuel supply systems.
100% stainless steel ideal for ammonia duties and biofuel preheating
- Marine classification even for higher classification levels in case of critical applications
- 100% stainless steel 316 makes AlfaNovaM suitable even for ammonia and biofuel duties
- Compact and efficient plate type heat exchanger
- Flexible temperature range from -196°C to 550°C
- Range includes: AlfaNovaM HP 27, AlfaNovaM HP 76 and AlfaNovaM HP 400
AlfaNovaM also provides consistent, reliable performance for biofuel preheating, supporting modern marine fuel requirements.
Alfa Laval’s fusion-bonded, all-stainless steel heat exchangers deliver reliable and robust heat transfer—perfect for applications where copper must be avoided. These exchangers handle pressures up to 50 bar and work across a broad temperature range, from cryogenic levels up to 550°C.
For marine operations, AlfaNovaM is a smart solution for ammonia and other aggressive media. Use it for heat recovery, gas cooling, condensing, sub-cooling, gas heating, and more.
Trust AlfaNovaM to keep your systems running smoothly, even in the toughest conditions.
Unique features to boost your performance
With more than 80 years of experience in heat transfer innovation, Alfa Laval knows what it takes to deliver high-performance solutions for any application. Our experts continuously develop new innovations that give our AlfaNova line of fusion-bonded plate heat exchangers more reliable and efficient performance.
PressureSecure
Unparalleled strength for demanding duties
Our innovative plate designs support the widest range of high-temperature and high-pressure applications. Units can run using thinner plates and fewer plates, which translates to less raw material, lower energy consumption, reduced refrigerant charge and a longer equipment lifecycle.
FlexFlow™
Superior thermal performance
Alfa Laval’s patented asymmetrical plate design is one of many unique innovations that gives you improved thermal efficiency thanks to optimized pressure drop and increased turbulence. In addition to cutting energy consumption, that means reducing refrigerant volumes and raw materials.
AlfaNova®
100% stainless steel
Built with 100% stainless steel, AlfaNova® is a solution that Alfa Laval offers for applications that use media not compatible with traditional heat exchanger materials. Not only is this advanced design optimized for use with natural refrigerants, it’s also completely recyclable.
How it works
Two media at different temperatures flow on either side of thin corrugated stainless-steel plates that are stacked on top of each other. The two media flow in a countercurrent flow through alternate channels and are held within the plate pack by a fusion-bonded seal around the edge of the plates. The points at which the plates are in contact with each other are also bonded with the same technology, reinforcing the pack against the pressure of the media inside.
The countercurrent flow makes it possible to extract heat efficiently even when there are only extremely small differences between the temperatures of the hot and cold media. This results in notable energy cost savings. In some systems, co-current flows re also possible. The product is optimized for marine applications.
