Cross-flow & Counter-flow Plate Heat Exchangers

HEATEX plate heat exchangers are fixed recuperators: supply and exhaust air pass through separate channels formed by thin aluminium plates, so there is no moving part and almost no air carry-over. Typical leakage is below 0.1 % of nominal airflow, so no leakage contribution needs to be assumed in EATR calculations for the AHU.

Cross-flow heat exchanger features

All HEATEX cross-flow heat exchangers share these features:

  • Extruded aluminium corner profiles · stainless steel is optional.
  • Double sealing · gluing plus a mechanical fold prevents leakage and contamination.
  • Corrugated plate pattern · more turbulence and heat transfer without stagnation points.
  • Flat or folded end plates · for every mounting interface.

Options for cross-flow heat exchangers

Besides size and performance, each heat exchanger can be configured with options to suit the application.

HEATEX option: Epoxy plates and corrosion-protected frameworkCorrosion Protection

Epoxy plates & corrosion-protected framework

Epoxy-coated heat transfer plates, a corrosion-protected framework and lacquered plate edges for demanding applications such as coastal environments.

HEATEX option: Bypass and dampersTemperature & Flow Management

Bypass & dampers

Dampers protect the heat exchanger when it approaches the freezing point. HEATEX dampers suit close/open bypass sections connected to a cross-flow plate heat exchanger.

HEATEX option: AquaSealExtra Tightness

AquaSeal

All plate crevices are filled with a special polymer for water-tightness and an even higher air-tightness, for high humidity or direct water exposure.

Counter-flow heat exchanger features

Counter-flow heat exchangers are particularly effective because they make use of even small temperature differences. With a robust build and high thermal performance they suit electronics cooling, demanding environments and energy-efficient heat recovery.

  • High efficiency · two counter-flowing airflows maximise heat transfer.
  • Wide range of applications · telecom cooling and inverter / converter cooling.
  • Technical reliability · robust materials and stable performance in continuous operation.
  • HEATEX Model M · a lightweight counter-flow core developed for thermal management such as enclosure cooling.

Options for counter-flow heat exchangers

Each counter-flow exchanger is configured to the project’s size and performance requirements, with these options:

HEATEX counter-flow option: Corrosion protectionEpoxy Coated Plates

Corrosion protection

All HEATEX aluminium heat exchangers are available with epoxy-coated plates for better corrosion protection in demanding applications such as coastal environments.

HEATEX counter-flow option: Airflow configurationAirflow Management

Airflow configuration

Model M is built to order with a double L-flow, double U-flow or L+U-flow configuration to suit the unit layout.
