- Brazed plate exchangers fuse stainless plates with copper or nickel under vacuum, with no gaskets and no frame bolts. Gasketed plate exchangers clamp plates between a fixed and moving frame using elastomer gaskets, allowing plates to be added or removed.
- Factor Brazed Gasketed Max temperature or pressure Higher Moderate Maintenance Sealed, service-free Plates can be cleaned or swapped Fouling duty Limited access Easy to inspect Footprint Very compact Larger with frame Best use Closed loops, refrigeration Changing or dirty duties
- Choose brazed for closed-loop hydronic duties, refrigeration and compact skids where leakage is unacceptable. Choose gasketed when fluids may foul, must be swapped, or when duties change seasonally. 26YC supplies both formats for heat-recovery loops.
