What are brazed plate heat exchangers? A brazed plate heat exchanger consists of corrugated plates that combine to create channels through which a hot medium and a cold medium (typically water) can be distributed.
Why use brazed plate heat exchanger?
Copper brazed plate heat exchangers provide efficient heat transfer with a small footprint. They are maintenance free, provide a long service lifetime and can withstand high temperatures and extremely high design pressures. They are used in a range of duties including cooling, heating, evaporation and condensing.
What material is a brazed plate heat exchanger?
corrugated stainless steel plates
Material The brazed plate heat exchanger (BHE) consists of thin corrugated stainless steel plates vacuum brazed together using copper as the brazing material. Design Brazing the stainless steel plates together eliminates the need for sealing gaskets and thick frame plates.
