This sale includes
- 5"x12" Brazed 60 Plate Heat Exchanger [1-1/4" MPT]
- Insulation Kit
- Mounting Bracket
One common application for these plate exchangers is for use in conjunction with outdoor wood stoves when transferring heat to the existing indoor pressurized boiler system essentially keeping the two fluids separate with optimal heat transfer.
We give realistic heat transfer outputs using realistic flow rates. Any brazed plate heat exchanger can have higher or lower performance data based on temperatures, flow rates, and other variables.
BTU Rating
194,000 BTU/hr @ 10 GPM
Heat exchanger
- Material: 316L Stainless Steel plates with 99.9% copper brazing
- Type: Liquid to Liquid
- Connections: 1-1/4" MPT Ports
- Design Pressure: 435 psi
- Test Pressure: 652 psi
- Design Temperature: -256F - 437F
- Approvals: UL Listed
Insulation Kit
- R-Value: 4.4
- Includes: Top, bottom and (4) middle pieces
The top piece has four pre-drilled holes for the mounting studs to poke through.
The studs do not poke all the way through the top piece, but can still be used by adding threaded rod.
There could be some minor trimming of the insulation with a razor for optimal fit.
The kit is perforated where the four MPT ports are so they can be cut with a razor or exacto blade.
Advantages
- Wide port spacing to allow for easier installation (2-3/4" C-C)
- Four Mounting Studs on front cover for ease of installation
- 1" MPT connections available on all units, 1-1/4" MPT connections available on units 40 plates & larger
- Rated for use in high temperature (437F) and pressure applications (435 psi)
- The heat exchanger carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty
How it works
An extremely high heat transfer coefficient is attained due to the flow characteristics in each channel.
A specially designed and tested chevron pattern causes a turbulent flow of the fluid resulting in higher heat transfer and reduction of the amount of deposits inside the unit.
