Nickel Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers
Nickel Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers covers plate packs using nickel braze for compatible fluid and thermal duties. Heat passes between fluid streams through a separating surface; channel geometry and materials shape heat transfer and pressure loss.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Brazed plate heat exchangers provide efficient heat transfer with a small footprint. They are maintenance free, provide a long service lifetime and can withstand high temperatures and extremely high design pressures. They are used in a range of duties including cooling, heating, and evaporation and condensing. Nickel (Ni) is characterized by its high corrosion resistance. When considering the corrosion resistance, we use nickel as the solder. Nickel brazed plate heat exchangers with high corrosion resistance, which is used widely in Pharma & Chemical industry and Food & Beverages industry.
The distinguishing feature is plate packs using nickel braze for compatible fluid and thermal duties. Check braze-material compatibility and the cleaning method before selecting a compact core. The channels cannot be opened like a gasketed plate pack, so feed fouling and pressure loss become critical. Thermal cycling and freezing risk must be evaluated for the installed circuit.
What turns activity into demand
Required thermal duty becomes a purchase after pressure loss, fouling, materials and cleaning access are resolved.
The commercial boundary
Separate exchanger core, complete skid and cooling system; area, capacity and unit count are distinct reporting measures.
What changes when a plate heat exchanger is permanently brazed?
