Stainless Steel Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers

Heat pump applications, involving heat transfer with refrigerants and phase changes, require heat exchangers that provide high efficiency and reliability. HeatX’s brazed plate heat exchangers, made from 316L stainless steel with copper brazing, are engineered for these needs, offering superior corrosion resistance and precise temperature control. These units are ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial heat pumps, ensuring energy efficiency and consistent performance in heating and cooling applications.

Featuring advanced plate technologies, these exchangers support high-pressure operations up to 45 bar and temperatures from -196 °C to 200 °C. The compact, leak-proof design minimizes pressure drop, reduces energy consumption, and ensures durability in demanding heat pump environments. These exchangers are not suitable for sanitary or marine applications but are optimized for efficient heat transfer in heat pump systems.

HeatX’s brazed plate heat exchangers deliver a robust, energy-efficient solution for heat pump applications, ensuring low maintenance and long-term performance.

Operations for heat pump heat exchangers involve key steps to maximize efficiency and performance:

• Refrigerant Preparation: Refrigerants are conditioned to ensure compatibility with the exchanger, optimizing flow and composition for efficient heat transfer.
• Heat Transfer: Refrigerants undergoing phase changes flow through alternating channels formed by brazed plates, with a heating or cooling medium in adjacent channels, ensuring efficient heat exchange.
• Temperature Control: Precise temperature regulation optimizes heat pump cycle efficiency and maintains consistent heating or cooling performance.
• Pressure Management: Flexible designs handle high refrigerant pressures, minimizing energy losses and ensuring reliable operation.
• Testing: Post-process testing verifies refrigerant quality, temperature accuracy, and compliance with industry standards.

Each step leverages the precision and durability of HeatX’s brazed plate heat exchangers to ensure optimal performance in heat pump applications.
