The easy way to reduce your energy costs and increase energy efficiency
A refund is just the start of your savings potential with the new exchange programme. Alfa Laval’s innovative heat exchanger technology will significantly increase the energy efficiency of your processes. That means drastically lower power consumption and carbon emissions, along with a significant reduction in your long-term operating costs.
Minimum risk. Maximum thermal performance.
Introducing our new generation of double-wall brazed heat exchangers. Built with our three-barrier technique, the new Alfa Laval double-wall brazed plate heat exchangers give you the greatest protection against media mixing. Unlike traditional double-wall designs, there is limited loss to efficiency, ensuring your system achieves the highest possible thermal performance.
Reduce your charge. Increase your potential.
Discover hitherto untapped potential for greater sustainability in commercial refrigeration, ground source heat pumps and more. Alfa Laval CB24 is the market’s first compact condenser fully optimized for propane (R290). With advanced engineering – including our patented asymmetrical channel plate design – it’s possible to minimize the refrigerant charge while boosting thermal efficiency. You get a safe, reliable, sustainable solution that’s fully compliant with the strictest regulations.
Modern thinking for more possibilities
Introducing the Alfa Laval CB210 brazed plate heat exchanger
CB210 combines all of Alfa Laval leading heat exchanger innovations into one
new, groundbreaking design. With higher capacity, improved efficiency and superior
thermal performance, you get more possibilities for today’s heating and cooling duties.
Key applications
Residential heating
CB units can be used in a variety of residential positions, including for domestic hot water and solar heating applications.
Heat pumps
Alfa Laval brazed heat exchangers can be used as condensers, economizers, evaporators and more.
Engine cooling
The efficient, robust and compact design of CB units is ideal for demanding engine duties.
AHRI for HVAC
Alfa Laval CB heat exchangers are available with certification according to the Liquid-to-Liquid Heat Exchanger programme of The Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI). For heat exchangers used in HVAC applications, this programme offers independent, third-party verification of thermal performance according to manufacturers’ published specifications.
How it works
Thin, corrugated stainless steel transfers heat, while copper brazing seals the media in the plate pack. The result is a high-efficiency heat exchanger that consists solely of surfaces that actively contribute to heat transfer. Contact points between the plates are also brazed, which improves resistance to pressure and temperature fatigue.
The arrangement of the channels formed between the plates ensures that media flow through alternate channels, generally in a countercurrent pattern, which further optimizes the efficiency of the heat transfer. A co-current configuration is also available.
