 The heart of your machine:
CIATs refrigeration heat exchangers
CIAT puts control over every stage of the refrigeration cycle into your own
hands. CIAT's ranges of evaporators and condensers are the culmination of
multidisciplinary know-how based on our expert thermal selection software
and leading-edge industrial resources. Each heat exchanger can be configured
with all the variations needed for easy installation at your site.

Industrialists working around the world in the diverse fields of industrial

refrigeration, food processing, marine applications and climatic engineering
(HVAC) put the reliability of CIAT's exchangers to the test. These decision-
makers benefit from all the advantages of a complete system: optimised
price/performance ratio and total compatibility.

 Evaporators 50 kW to 3000 kW
COREVA flooded and direct-expansion evaporators deliver very high heat exchange
efficiency levels to provide high transfer coefficients with a low refrigerant charge.

The materials are selected based on the application:

> copper or steel for cooling common refrigerants (fresh water, glycol/water mix,
alcohol, brine, etc.);
> stainless steel for corrosive fluids (deionised water, some thermal fluids, etc.);
> materials that withstand below-zero applications (-20C);
> corrosion-resistant polymer baffles.

Many options and variations are available for easier installation (number of refrigeration
circuits, compressor mounts, baffling on request, etc.)

 Condensers 50 kW to 7000 kW

The OPTIMA range is engineered and designed to meet the demands of refrigeration professions:
> its Very High Performance tubes withstand the lowest condensing temperatures possible,
resulting in more compact units and lower refrigerant charges;
> the flow of refrigerant promotes subcooling and thus high energy efficiency;
> these units are particularly well suited to desuperheating, which allows the highest heat recovery
levels possible.

The CORELIS range offers desuperheating and oil cooling functions and can be combined with the
OPTIMA range of condensers.
