Flat Plate Cross Flow Heat Exchanger
Energy Cores — Series XLT
AIRotor Series XLT—Energy Recovery Core (Sensible Only) is an air-to-air cross flow heat exchanger. The core is constructed of specialized design corrugated aluminum plates. The energy from the
air path on one side of the plates is transferred to the air path on the other side. The core is generally configured square on one end and stretched to widely varying lengths.
Selection software provides recommended alternative model sizes, lengths, and number of plates within the structure. The cores are square on one end. The overall width equals the overall height and ranges to about 10’ square on the ends. The overall lengths differ within each of the model sizes but can be as long as 20’. Sizes accommodate flow capacities from 1,000 to 75,000 CFM.
