The main stream is divided into several partial pipe streams with the same operation mode as the monotube design. In contrast to a monotube heat exchanger, the SMXL Multitube heat exchanger has no restrictions with regard to product throughput or heat to be transferred.

The multitube mixer heat exchanger type SMXL is used mainly for heating and partly for cooling applications especially for heat-sensitive and/or viscous products. A special application is preheating of a polymer solution, where part of the product starts to evaporate already in the heat exchanger, for example prior to entering the devolatilization vessel.
