Gasketed plate heat exchangers deliver uniform, gentle heat transfer

THE FrontLine gasketed plate heat exchangers from Alfa Laval ensure gentle treatment of hygienic products to prevent damage from burning or over-processing.

The heat exchangers are suitable for products with up to 5000 cPs viscosities, small particles, and limited fiber lengths or products that require up to 21 bar (290 psi) pressure. They can come with stainless steel frames and clip plates to suit different processing tasks.

The plate material and unique herringbone pattern with optimized pressing depths provide gentle and uniform heat transfer. Their press depths and relatively few contact points extend operating times. The unique distribution area ensures a uniform flow over the entire plate surface with no stagnant flow zones and lower fouling build-up risks.

The plates are easy to clean with increased Cleaning-in-Place efficiency and less fouling. They offer longer time between cleaning cycles.
