Applications
The following is a list of typical processes that require brazed plate heat exchangers: HVAC, heat pumps, chillers, evaporators, condensers, oil cooling, hydraulic cooling, data center cooling, district heating, refrigeration, process heating/cooling, and heat recovery.
Sizes & Materials
Brazed plate units feature 316L stainless steel plates, copper or nickel brazing, and designs from compact 3×8" to large industrial frames. They handle pressures up to 2030 psi and temperatures from -196°C to 225°C. Asymmetric channels, high-performance plate patterns, and optional coatings optimize efficiency and reduce fouling.
Available in standard, all-stainless, and high-pressure models with multiple connection types and full compliance to ASME, PED, and other standards. Compact design and high turbulence make them ideal for space-limited and high-efficiency applications.
Standard Brazed Plate
Copper-brazed models offer excellent thermal performance and cost-effectiveness for most water, oil, and refrigerant applications with good compatibility and high efficiency.
All-Stainless Brazed Plate
Nickel-brazed or diffusion-bonded all-stainless designs provide superior corrosion resistance for aggressive media, high-purity processes, and applications requiring no copper.
