SPX Flow APV

SPX FLOW APV – Global Leaders in Engineering Solutions

APV is one of the most established names in heat transfer, and today the brand is part of SPX FLOW. Through APV, Eiken Maritime supplies plate heat exchangers, genuine spare parts and aftermarket service for the demanding cooling and heating duties found on board vessels and across aquaculture operations. As a certified sales agent and distributor for SPX FLOW APV, we combine world-class equipment with local expertise and service.

A Century of Plate Heat Exchanger Expertise

APV has shaped heat transfer for over a hundred years. Founded in 1910 as the Aluminium Plant & Vessel Company, it was here that Dr. Richard Seligman invented the plate heat exchanger in 1923 — the original ParaFlow that set the standard the industry still follows. Now part of SPX FLOW, APV brings that engineering heritage to the food and beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical, marine and aquaculture industries worldwide.

The APV ParaFlow plate heat exchanger range covers everything from minimal flows to ultra-large capacities of up to 4500 m³/h, with an extensive choice of plate materials, gaskets, connections and accessories. Proprietary ParaWeld and Paramine technologies extend the boundaries of what a gasketed plate heat exchanger can do — improving sealing performance, durability and operational range for the most challenging media.

Built for Marine and Aquaculture

For vessel owners and fish-farming operations, reliable heat transfer is critical to keeping processes running. APV plate heat exchangers handle cooling, heating, condensing and evaporation duties in compact, efficient units that are straightforward to maintain. With SPX FLOW's global production and service network behind them — and Eiken Maritime's support close to home — they are well suited to the conditions of Nordic marine and aquaculture operations.

Service, Spare Parts and Support from Eiken Maritime

Heat exchangers are only as reliable as the parts and service behind them. Eiken Maritime supplies genuine APV spare parts — designed to strict specifications and regularly tested — to reduce the risk of unscheduled stoppages from premature failure of non-original components.

Our service and onboard inspection covers the full maintenance cycle for plate heat exchangers: pre-cleaning inspection, gasket removal and replacement, mechanical or chemical plate cleaning, crack and pinhole detection, reassembly and pressure testing. For maximum uptime, the APV replacement plate-pack solution lets you swap a worn pack for one with identical specifications — "no surprises, no risk, full cost control." Our after-sales support goes further still — covering capacity adjustments, new thermal calculations, technical support and detailed drawings, plus genuine spare parts such as gaskets, liners and plates — to protect performance over the full service life of your equipment.
