Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers
Compact, Efficient, Sanitary

What is a Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger?

Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers (BPHE) consist of thin, corrugated stainless steel plates brazed together with copper or nickel. The design allows for high heat transfer efficiency in a compact footprint, while eliminating the need for gaskets or seals. Ideal for liquid-to-liquid heat exchange, they reduce installation space and maintenance requirements.

Advantages of BPHE

• Compact design for space-saving installations
• High thermal efficiency due to corrugated plate design
• Maintenance-free: fully sealed brazed plates
• Sanitary construction: stainless steel compatible with CIP/SIP
• Wide application range: pasteurizers, cooling, and heating systems

Technical Specifications

BPHEs are available in multiple sizes and configurations to meet various flow, temperature, and viscosity requirements. Typical parameters include:

Applications

BPHEs are widely used in industries where hygiene, efficiency, and compact design are essential:

• Dairy pasteurization and cooling
• Beverage heating and chilling
• Food and pharma process water
• Hot water and heating systems
• Energy recovery and closed-loop systems
