AL Series Plate Heat Exchanger Unit Models M3 M6 M10 M15 M20 M30 And More

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

Structure & Working Principle

Main Components of a Plate Heat Exchanger

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.

Technical Specifications

Industry Applications & Case Studies

Case Study Example:

• Food Industry: A leading dairy company reduced energy consumption by 30% by switching to a customized gasketed plate heat exchanger for pasteurization.

• Power Plants: Implementation of welded PHEs improved efficiency in cooling turbine lubrication systems, extending equipment lifespan.

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.
