Introduction to Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers:
Tipo Heat Exchangers produces the Brazed Plate Type Heat Exchanger that is made from SS ( Stainless Steel ) and copper/nickel Brazing materials. Brazed Plate type heat exchangers produce turbulent flow in a true counter-current direction, which results in high efficiency and very compact heat exchangers. It is the most economical heat transfer choice for some peoples.
Materials used for the brazed plate heat exchanger are SS 316 and copper brazing materials. By using these materials we can achieve more compact shell and tube designs hence it has become an obvious choice for food and beverage industries. It is also used in Pharmaceuticals and dairy industry.
