Plate heat exchangers
04 October 2015
A hot water system using a plate heat exchanger (PHE) does not store hot water. The water is heated instantaneously and only when required.

Available from Stokvis' extensive portfolio, a PHE consists of a pack of plates (usually stainless steel) to transfer heat from the primary fluid to the secondary fluid. The plates and gaskets are arranged to form alternating channels between the primary and secondary fluids and arranged in this way, the plates have an extremely large heat transfer surface area and therefore considerably high loads are achieved from a very compact Plate Heat Exchanger.
For large commercial applications a PHE is ideal as it is capable of producing hot water instantly and constantly at peak times.
