The structure of a brazed plate heat exchanger Main data:
A brazed plate heat exchanger, consists of a series of thin, corrugated metal plates that are brazed together to • Min. temperature:
improve heat transfer efficiency. The plates are compressed together in a rigid frame to create an arrangement -196°C / -320°F
of parallel flow channels. One fluid travels in the odd numbered channels, the other in the even. • Max. temperature:
Brazing the plates together eliminates the need for sealing gaskets and thick frame plates. + 200°C / 392°F
Danfoss brazed plate heat exchangers can be copper- or nickel-brazed and are available with threaded or • Design pressure:
welded connections. 10-45 bar (145-652)
• Cooling capacity/heat load:
Environmentally friendly 1-500 kW
As a global leader in the field of refrigeration and air conditioning we continuously strive to provide our customers with
innovative components that are energy efficient and environmentally responsible, especially when it comes to Approvals:
the use of refrigerants. • CE certificate according to
Built compact to require less refrigerant Danfoss brazed plate heat exchangers are an environmentally friendly (PED) 97/23/EC
solution. • UL approvals
• ISO 9001:2000
Customized solutions • CSA
Having developed software that can select the most optimal models based on the working conditions of the
heat exchangers, we can offer OEMs solutions adapted to their exact needs.

Keep it comfortable Your benefits:

In the air conditioning industry, it’s not enough to keep up with • Easy installation
technology. You’ve got to fulfil complex demands. • High performance
• Low refrigerant volume
On the one hand people demand a comfortable climate where they • Long life-time
work, shop or meet with other people, but on the other hand they • Low operation costs
want energy solutions with low impact on the environment. • Reduced energy consumption
Air conditioning consumes a lot of energy. Therefore it is essential
that the technical solution behind it is energy efficient while it fulfils
its mission.
