Our brazed plate heat exchangers are manufactured in 5 sizes in model series 12, 18, 25, 57 and 100. In model series 25 and 57, three plate types "H", "M" and "L" are available, whereas model series 100 uses "M" plates exclusively. In model series 18, "L" plates are additionally available.
Design and working principle
Brazed plate heat exchangers consist of pressed stainless steel plates which are brazed with copper in a vacuum process.
For brazing, every other plate is rotated by 180 degrees in the plane to produce to separate flow channels in which the products involved in heat transfer flow in opposite directions. The plate contours generate a highly turbulent flow allowing very efficient heat transfer even with low volumetric flows. Heat transfer depends on the angle of the V-shaped profiling of the individual plate types. The flow gaps produced in this way generate different degrees of turbulences which determines the heat transmission. Three different V-shaped profilings are available, referred to as "H", "M" and "L".
