ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a facade plate, method of assembly, assembled heat exchanger, and kit of parts therefor. The facade plate is adapted for securement to at least part of the tube plate of a heat exchanger, the facade plate having apertures conforming to openings in the said part of the tube plate, the facade plate being of a plastic material. The method of mounting the facade plate to the tube plate includes the steps of {i} securing a locking member within the end of each one of many or all of the heat exchanger tubes; {ii} placing the facade plate against the tube plate with the apertures aligned with respective tube plate openings; {iii} selecting a set of tubular inserts which have a part adapted for engagement with a locking member; {iv} passing a respective tubular insert through all or many of the apertures and into the corresponding tube so that the said part engages the locking member. The kit of parts for the repair or refurbishment of a heat exchanger comprises {i} a set of locking members for securement to respective tubes, {ii} a facade plate as herein defined, and {iii} a set of tubular inserts, each having a part adapted for engagement with a locking member.
