The heat transfer area of a gasketed plate heat exchanger consists of a series of corrugated plates, assembled between a frame and pressure plates to retain pressure. Gaskets act as seals between the plates. Fluids normally run counter-currently through the heat exchanger.
The heat transfer area of a gasketed plate-and-frame heat exchanger consists of a series of corrugated plates, assembled between the frame and pressure plates, which retain the design pressure. For the highest thermal performance and to enable a very close temperature approach, fluids normally run counter-currently through the heat exchanger.
Alfa Laval M-Series Gasketed Plate Heat ExchangerAn Alfa Laval M Series plate heat exchanger is an efficient solution for general heating and cooling duties in hygienic applications. In addition, the series is a perfect alternative for heating and cooling service media, including portable water, glycol, and chilled water tempering.
Plate Heat Exchangers, Gasketed. HRS Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers are manufactured as standard from either AISI 304/316 stainless steel or titanium to a thickness of 0.6mm, although plate thickness options of 0.8mm or 1.0mm are also available if required. The exchangers are fitted with EPDM or NBR gaskets with the frames constructed from painted carbon steel.
Gasketed plate heat exchangers - Alfa Lavalgasketed plate heat exchangers are also available as AHRI performance certified versions called Alfa Laval AQ-series. The performance certification is according to AHRI Standard 400 and is verified in the AHRI Liquid to Liquid Heat Exchanger certification program, LLHE. Easy and safe maintenance .
