Import Gasket Type Plate Heat Exchangers — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in Taiwan

The Kaori Heat Treatment Co., Ltd. of Taiwan manufactures gasket‑type plate heat exchangers that employ vertically swing‑out plates to maximise heat transfer surface in a compact footprint. The units can be configured for single‑pass or multi‑pass flow, allowing the hot and cold streams to move either in the same direction across all plates or to reverse direction for tighter temperature approach. Kaori highlights the design’s lower capital cost, easier cleaning and the ability to achieve close approach temperatures compared with shell‑and‑tube or spiral exchangers. The company, founded in 1970, holds JIS marking and McDonnell Douglas process certifications from the late 1980s.

Typical plates are fabricated from stainless‑steel grades such as 304 or 316, with a thickness ranging from 0.3 mm to 0.6 mm, and are sealed with EPDM or NBR gaskets that tolerate temperatures up to 200 °C. Standard heat‑transfer area per plate lies between 0.2 m² and 1.0 m², giving a typical total capacity of 10 m² to 200 m² depending on the number of plates selected. Connection sizes follow DN15 to DN200 nominal dimensions, and the design conforms to ASME‑PTE standards for pressure vessels. These typical parameters enable the exchanger to handle flow rates from a few hundred to several thousand L h⁻¹.

The exchangers are suited to water‑to‑water, water‑to‑oil and light‑chemical services in power generation, food processing and HVAC installations. Kaori states that it offers the lowest price among Asian manufacturers and can supply large‑scale units to agencies and corporations worldwide, though exact minimum order quantities and lead times must be confirmed directly. Prospective buyers should request detailed engineering drawings, certification copies and performance curves to verify suitability for their process. Trade is normally arranged under standard incoterms such as FOB Taoyuan, with payment terms negotiated per order.

Kaori Heat Treatment Co., Ltd. was established in 1970 by a group of metallurgical experts in Taoyuan, Taiwan (address: 5‑2, Chilin North Road, Chung‑li District, Taoyuan 320). The company is classified as an imported supplier with a harbour trust tier, and its platform data shows a current response rate of 0 %. It holds JIS marking and McDonnell Douglas process certifications awarded in 1988 and 1994, confirming compliance with recognised Japanese and aerospace standards.

Today Kaori positions itself as the leading gasket‑type plate heat exchanger manufacturer in Taiwan and one of the largest in Asia, supplying to organisations such as NASA, Taiwan Power Company and Formosa Plastics. The supplier’s catalogue emphasises modern heat‑treating technology, but the listing does not disclose specific production capacity, pricing or lead‑time details, which must be obtained from the company directly.
