Custom Plate Evaporator | Serpentine Tube Refrigeration Coil
A plate evaporator is often selected when the refrigeration system requires a large heat transfer surface within a relatively thin and compact structure.
Unlike conventional finned evaporator coils, this design combines a serpentine refrigerant tube layout with a metal plate, allowing the available plate surface to become part of the heat transfer structure. The tube path, plate dimensions, connection positions and mounting configuration can be customized according to the equipment design.
Designed Around the Available Plate Area
For this type of evaporator, the plate is not simply a support component. Its size, material, thickness and contact with the refrigerant tubing directly affect how the evaporator integrates with the equipment.
The design can be developed around:
1.Required plate length and width
2.Available installation space
3.Refrigeration capacity
4.Refrigerant type and operating temperature
5.Tube diameter and tube length
6.Serpentine tube arrangement
7.Tube spacing
8.Refrigerant inlet and outlet positions
9.Mounting requirements
This makes the plate evaporator suitable for applications where a conventional fin-and-tube coil would be too thick, difficult to install or unnecessarily complex.
Serpentine Tube Layout
The refrigerant tube can be formed into a continuous serpentine configuration across the plate surface. The tube layout can be adjusted according to the required heat transfer area and available installation dimensions.
Tube spacing and routing can also be configured to suit different plate sizes and refrigeration circuit requirements.
For OEM applications, the tube path does not have to follow a fixed standard pattern. The configuration can be developed according to the customer's drawing, existing evaporator or equipment structure
Plate and Tube Combination
The performance of a plate evaporator depends heavily on the contact between the refrigerant tube and the plate.
A suitable tube-to-plate connection helps transfer heat from the refrigerated surface to the refrigerant circuit while maintaining the mechanical stability of the assembly.
Depending on the application, material selection can be discussed according to:
1.Plate material
2.Tube material
3.Plate thickness
4.Tube diameter
5.Surface treatment requirements
6.Operating environment
7.Refrigerant compatibility
For projects with specific material requirements, the construction can be reviewed based on the customer's technical specification rather than using a fixed material combination.
Where Plate Evaporators Are Used
Plate evaporators can be developed for refrigeration equipment where a thin, surface-integrated heat exchanger is preferred.
Typical applications include:
Refrigerators
Freezers
Commercial refrigeration equipment
Refrigerated cabinets
Cold storage equipment
Display refrigeration equipment
Refrigeration panels
Special-purpose cooling equipment
The final configuration depends on the required cooling capacity, operating conditions and available installation space.

Frequently Asked Questions
What dimensions can be customized?
+
-
The overall plate length and width, tube spacing, tube diameter, tube length, connection position and mounting configuration can all be customized according to the available installation space and refrigeration requirements.
Can the serpentine tube layout be customized?
+
-
Yes. The serpentine tube routing can be designed according to the required heat transfer area, plate dimensions and refrigerant flow path. This is particularly useful when the evaporator needs to fit a specific cabinet or equipment structure.
What materials are available for the plate and tube?
+
-
Material selection can be discussed according to the refrigeration system, operating conditions, corrosion requirements and cost target. Common configurations include copper tubing with aluminum or other specified plate materials.
Can you customize the refrigerant inlet and outlet positions?
+
-
Yes. The inlet and outlet positions, connection tube size and connection direction can be configured according to the customer's refrigeration circuit and assembly requirements.
How do you determine the tube spacing?
+
-
Tube spacing is selected according to the plate dimensions, required heat transfer area, refrigerant circuit design and operating conditions. It is not necessarily fixed across different plate evaporator models.
