Sanitary High-Efficiency Heat Exchangers
Quickly heat or cool beverages and condiments using these heat exchangers, which have a sanitary design certified by 3-A. Also known as plate and frame heat exchangers, they run your product through stacked, corrugated plates and send a liquid of a different temperature in the opposite direction. They’re more efficient than shell and tube heat exchangers because they have a larger surface area for heat transfer. Made of stainless steel, the plates and frame won't rust or corrode from contact with liquids. Oil, water, and salt won’t break down their Buna-N gaskets. The interior gaskets clip onto the plates instead of being glued, so they’re easy to remove for cleaning. Connect these heat exchangers to sanitary quick-clamp fittings using a gasket and a clamp.
Btu/hr. cooling capacity and maximum flow capacity are based on cooling 212˚ F beer wort to 68˚ F using 55˚ F water.
Heat exchangers with mounting feet stand free, or you can mount their frame to the floor using bolt holes in the feet.
Add plates and gaskets to increase heating and cooling capacity or replace existing plates. When replacing your plate, choose one with the same maximum flow capacity. Flow plates have two blocked ports to create extra passes, which makes heat transfer more efficient. Pass plates have four open ports for liquid to flow through.

High-Pressure Copper Tubing for Drinking Water
This Type K tubing has the thickest walls of all our copper tubing for drinking water to handle the highest pressures. It is also known as copper pipe. Tubing has good corrosion resistance and excellent heat transfer qualities. It is seamless, so it has a smooth interior for unrestricted flow. It meets NSF/ANSI 61 safety standards for use with drinking water systems.
Coiled tubing can be flared without splitting.
Note: Copper tube size is an accepted industry designation, not an actual size.
