Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers, made with SUS316 plates and copper or nickel brazing, offer high corrosion resistance against various fluids and can withstand pressures up to 45 bar. Their carefully designed corrugated plate patterns ensure high thermal efficiency in counter or parallel flow, supporting working temperatures up to 200℃. Compared to shell-and-tube exchangers, they are compact, weighing and sizing about one-fifth as much, making installation and replacement easier. The turbulent flow induced by the corrugated plates at low flow rates minimizes maintenance needs, enhancing durability and operational efficiency.
Brazed plate heat exchangers have a wide range of applications, a few of which are:
A brazed plate heat exchanger is engineered as a compact, efficient system comprising a stack of corrugated channel plates sandwiched between robust front and rear cover-plate assemblies. These assemblies include sealing plates, blind rings, and customizable cover plates equipped with connections tailored to meet diverse market and application demands, such as HVAC, refrigeration, or industrial processes. During the vacuum-brazing process, a strong joint is formed at every contact point between the base plates and the filler material—typically pure copper or nickel—resulting in a durable structure with two distinct channels or circuits for fluid flow, preventing any mixing of the fluids.
The channel plates feature varying herringbone patterns, which allow precise tuning of hydraulic and thermal characteristics. This flexibility enables brazed plate heat exchangers to maintain consistent pressure drops across both sides, even with differing flow rates, optimizing performance for specific applications. Fluid flow can be configured as co-current (parallel) or counter-current, with options like dual-circuit, two-pass, or dual-over-two-pass designs to suit complex thermal requirements. Standard plate materials include AISI 316 stainless steel, vacuum-brazed with copper or nickel-based fillers for corrosion resistance, while high-molybdenum SMO 254 stainless steel is available for harsh, corrosive environments. This combination of customizable design, material versatility, and high-efficiency heat transfer makes brazed plate heat exchangers ideal for demanding industrial, marine, and energy applications.
Unmatched Performance and Durability
Our brazed plate heat exchanger is designed for optimal thermal efficiency and long-term reliability, backed by 20 years of manufacturing expertise.
Saving resources:
Due to its efficient heat transferandcompact design, gasketed plateheatexchanger requires less cool-ing waterand footprint, reducing thewaste ofresources and helping theenvironment.
Compact structure:
Compared with traditionaltubeheat exchangers, plateheatexchangers have a more-compact structure and takeupless space.
Highly removable:
The design of the brazed plate-heat exchanger allows for easydis-assembly and cleaning, whichisparticularly beneficial whendealingwith viscous fluids or fluidscontain-ing solid particles.
High heat transferefficiency:
It uses a counter-current approach-to heat exchange, which enablesitto make better use of thermalener-gy and reduce energy costs.
