In fact, WCR recently completed one of our largest single plate heat exchanger projects of Q2 2022 for a leading agricultural processor in the Midwest. In less than six weeks, we built, tested, and delivered a new 450-plate WCR A-1420 heat exchanger unit for supplemental cooling applications. Here’s how the WCR team made it happen:

Domestic Heat Exchanger Production Leads to Shorter Lead Times

As the leader in domestic heat exchanger manufacturing, WCR offers American-made heat exchangers for a wide range of industries and thermal transfer applications. In addition to producing drop-in heat exchangers for all major name brands, our own WCR-branded heat exchangers are available with 1-inch to 12-inch connections and can be custom-designed, manufactured, and optimized for nearly any application.

Because we produce our heat exchangers here in the U.S.A., we have the ability to turn around very large custom projects — such as this 450-plate, 150-lb ASME WCR A-1420 heat exchanger unit with 12-inch connections — in a matter of weeks, not months. It’s the WCR difference that sets us apart!

After-sales Support with Heat Exchanger Replacement Parts

Like all industrial equipment, heat exchanger components experience normal wear and need to be replaced over time. This is why WCR doesn’t just manufacture new heat exchanger units; we support our customers in the long term by stocking the largest selection of heat exchanger spare parts in North America. We have an inventory of over 200,000 heat exchanger plates and over 600,000 heat exchanger gaskets in stock and ready to order and ship anytime. WCR also offers convenient delivery, professional installation, and expert heat exchanger repair and maintenance services to minimize costly downtime and help our customers prolong the life of their heat exchangers.
