  • Page 4: Intended Purpose

    ITEM A-03-343 DATED NOVEMBER 2012 SUPERCEDES MARCH 2011 Usually single-pass plate heat exchangers are used (shown below). In the case of single-pass plate heat exchangers, all feed and return pipes are connected to the fixed pressure plate. Close temperature differences between the media may demand the use of multipass plate heat exchangers.
  • Page 5 ITEM A-03-343 DATED NOVEMBER 2012 SUPERCEDES MARCH 2011 The pipe connections can be attached to the fixed pressure plate system resulting in “leak ports”. These leak ports divert the or to the loose pressure plate. The pipe connections on the fixed leaking fluid to the outside via gaps in the gasket webs (leak and pressure plate are positioned as follows: grooves), and thus make leakages identifiable immediately.
