Installation
Plate heat exchangers should be assembled in a way that there is sufficient space to perform mainte-
nance. The position for installation should be selected so that the plate heat exchanger can be ventilated
and emptied. The minimum distance for the mounting on the thermal insulation is 40
mm. As for heat-
technical applications, a vertical mounting position is most effective. Any other position for installation
could lead to power loss.
Refrigeration applications such as evaporator or condenser systems always require vertical installation.
Never assemble the heat exchanger with the connections in a downwards position. The heat exchanger
should be preventively mounted on a console. A support only on the ports is not sufficient. Make sure
that there are no vibrations and/or pulsations affecting the heat exchanger.
If necessary, you install expansion joints to ensure that there are no forces acting directly on the ports.
Connection to the pipe network
A – Primary side heating technology: primary in / out
B – Primary side refrigeration: refrigerant in / out
Heat exchangers are connected in reverse flow. The system needs to be rinsed before installing the
heat exchanger.
ATTENTION:
Pipelines should be routed the way that movements inside the pipes or improper
forces to not act on the plate heat exchanger!
