The Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) is an advanced heat transfer device designed for high-efficiency thermal exchange between fluids. It consists of a series of corrugated metal plates stacked together, forming separate channels for hot and cold fluids. The plates are sealed with gaskets or permanently brazed/welded, ensuring leak-proof operation. PHEs are widely used in HVAC, power plants, chemical processing, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, and marine industries.
✅ Highly efficient heat transfer (Up to 90%)
✅ Compact & modular design – Easy to scale by adding/removing plates
✅ Energy-efficient & cost-effective – Reduces operational costs
✅ Easy maintenance & cleaning – Plates can be easily removed (for gasketed PHEs)
✅ Customizable for specific industry needs – Various plate materials & gasket options available
Features & Benefits
✔ High Heat Transfer Efficiency – Optimized plate design enhances thermal performance.
✔ Compact & Lightweight – Requires less space compared to traditional shell-and-tube heat exchangers.
✔ Easy Maintenance – Plates can be disassembled for cleaning and servicing.
✔ Scalability – Additional plates can be added to increase capacity.
✔ Customizable Design – Available in various plate materials (SS304, SS316, Titanium, etc.) and gasket options.
Technical Specifications
Parameter | Specifications |
Plate Material | Stainless Steel (SS304, SS316L), Titanium, Hastelloy |

Industry Applications
Industry | Application |
HVAC & Cooling | District heating, chillers, air conditioning |
Chemical & Petrochemical | Cooling & heating of process fluids, solvent recovery |
Food & Beverage | Pasteurization, dairy processing, brewing, fermentation |
Pharmaceuticals | Temperature control in drug manufacturing, sterilization |
Power Generation | Turbine cooling, lubrication oil cooling, heat recovery |

Structure & Working Principle
Main Components of a Plate Heat Exchanger
Component | Description |
Plates | Corrugated metal sheets that form heat exchange channels. |
Gaskets | Seals the plates to prevent fluid mixing (only for gasketed PHEs). |
Frame & Tie Bars | Holds the plates together, allowing assembly/disassembly. |
Connections | Inlet/outlet ports for fluid flow. |
How It Works
1. Two fluids (hot & cold) enter through separate inlets.
2. Fluids flow through alternating narrow channels without mixing.
3. Heat is transferred from the hot fluid to the cold fluid via the plates.
4. Cooled hot fluid & heated cold fluid exit through separate outlets.
5. Efficient turbulence flow ensures maximum heat exchange with minimal fouling.
Packaging & Logistics
✅ Secure Packaging:
• Wooden crates & protective wrapping to prevent damage during shipping.
• Labeling & documentation for customs compliance and tracking.
✅ Global Shipping & Delivery:
• Door-to-door delivery available for international orders.
• Express shipping options for urgent industrial needs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: How do I choose the right Plate Heat Exchanger?
A: Provide details such as fluid type, temperature range, flow rate, pressure, and application. Our engineers will recommend the best model.
Q2: Can PHEs handle high-pressure applications?
A: Yes, welded and semi-welded PHEs are designed for high-pressure environments.
Q3: How often should I clean my PHE?
A: Cleaning frequency depends on usage, but CIP (Clean-in-Place) maintenance is recommended every 6–12 months for optimal performance.
