Windust Hydraulics stock the HEX range of heat exchangers from Hydac. The design and construction of these brazed plate heat exchangers are particularly compact and efficient. The heat transfer plates are made in stainless steel and are brazed with copper as standard. For use with corrosive media, nickel braze can also be used.
Copper brazed plate heat exchangers are pressure resistant up to 30 bar, nickel brazed up to 10 bar. Special models are however also suitable for higher pressures.
With plate heat exchangers, the heat from the fluid being cooled is transferred to a cooling fluid. The advantage is that they can maintain the fluid temperature at a very low and stable level – depending on the temperature of coolant. Brazed heat exchangers therefore ensure efficient heat transfer combined with compact dimensions and low weight.
