The Alfa Laval gasketed heat exchanger

The gasketed plate heat exchanger (PHE) range from Alfa Laval is the result
of years of experience in heat transfer technology. At a quick glance the design
may seem traditional, but when studying the plates, gaskets and frames in detail
the superiority of the Alfa Laval PHE becomes obvious. As always, attention
to detail is what gives Alfa Laval the winning edge.

• Flexible design • Single-step pressing of all plates

• Efficient heat transfer • Clip-on or glued gaskets
• Compact design • Quickly and easily opened frames
