Plate & Frame Heat Exchanger

Overview

Plate and frame heat exchangers use a series of corrugated metal plates to transfer heat between two fluids. The gasketed design allows for easy access, cleaning, and capacity changes by adding or removing plates — making them a practical choice for systems where maintenance access and flexibility are priorities.

Key Features

  • Gasketed plate design for easy disassembly and cleaning
  • Flexible capacity — add or remove plates as requirements change
  • Wide range of plate materials and gasket compounds available
  • Suitable for liquid-to-liquid heat transfer applications
  • Compact footprint relative to shell and tube alternatives
  • ASME Section VIII certified options available

Common Applications

Chilled Water Systems HVAC Heat Recovery Process Heating & Cooling Industrial Fluid Cooling Glycol Systems Water Treatment

Coilmen Support

Coilmen assists with plate and frame heat exchanger selections, replacement units, and application reviews. Whether matching an existing exchanger or evaluating a new system, we can help verify thermal performance, pressure drop requirements, connection locations, and material compatibility before equipment is ordered.
