ASME Limpet Coil Pressure Vessel for Heating and Cooling Applications in Chemical & Oil Industry

ASME Limpet Coil Pressure Vessel for Heating and Cooling Applications in Chemical & Oil Industry

Product Description
 

This equipment is a Limpet Coil Pressure Vessel, designed for efficient heat transfer through an external half-pipe coil welded onto the vessel shell.

It is widely used in chemical processing, oil & gas, and pharmaceutical industries for heating, cooling, and temperature control of process fluids.

Key Features

Limpet Coil (Half-Pipe Jacket) Design
External half-pipe coils ensure uniform heat distribution and high thermal efficiency.
Enhanced Heat Transfer Performance
Suitable for both heating (steam, hot oil) and cooling (water, glycol) applications.
High Mechanical Strength
Coil structure reinforces the vessel shell, improving pressure resistance.
Flexible Design
Coil pitch, diameter, and layout can be customized according to process requirements.
Easy Maintenance
Compared to full jacket vessels, limpet coil design is easier to inspect and repair

Applications
Chemical reactors
Storage tanks with temperature control
Bitumen and heavy oil heating
Pharmaceutical processing
Food industry (temperature-sensitive materials)

What is Limpet Coil Design?

A limpet coil consists of half pipes welded externally onto the vessel shell, forming a flow channel for heating or cooling media.

Compared with conventional jacket designs, it offers:

Better pressure handling capability
Reduced risk of leakage
More efficient heat transfer
