Gasketed Plate & Frame Heat Exchanger |

|
The Plate and Frame Heat Exchanger with gasketed plates is a very efficient heat transfer device.
The Plate & Frame heat exchanger consists of specially formed individual plates and are assembled to form the “plate pack”. A gasket of suitable material between the plates seals the liquid and directs the flow. The end frames and heavy threaded rods compress the plate pack to create a highly efficient heat transfer unit.
