Brazed plate heat exchangers are constructed with a series of thin, corrugated stainless steel plates. These plates are carefully stacked and brazed together using a high-temperature process, creating a sealed unit with alternating hot and cold fluid channels.

Features of Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers

High Thermal Efficiency: Brazed plate heat exchangers (BPHE) offer excellent heat transfer efficiency, ensuring optimal energy utilization.

Quick Response Time: BPHEs have low internal volume, allowing for rapid temperature response and efficient heat exchange.

Versatile Application: These heat exchangers are suitable for various fluids, including refrigerants

Known for their efficient heat transfer, brazed plate heat exchangers are an excellent choice for industrial processes. This type of exchanger has a very high surface area to volume ratio and is highly versatile. It can BPHE be used in refrigerant evaporators and industrial oil cooling applications. Depending on the fluid, these units can be made of titanium or stainless steel. They also feature an extensive selection of gasket materials and inlet and outlet connections.

A brazed plate heat exchanger can be classified according to its design. Its volume and flow configuration depend on the fluid properties. For example, the aluminum surface area to coolant volume ratio in the most demanding terrestrial applications is 0.04 cm2/mL. In automotive applications, the surface area to volume ratio can be as high as 0.99 square inches per cubic inch.

Plate heat exchangers are composed of several thin corrugated plates that are bundled together. Each pair of plates provides a channel for one fluid. Plates can be stacked and attached together using a brazing, vacuum-brazed, or welded process.
