Installation:
The DN800 / 32” Vapour connection makes it possible to cover
many duties in a single pass solution. All connections will be on
the head of the heat exchanger, which is of big advantage
during service work.
The plate pattern and inlet area are also designed for CIP
cleaning making the service of the PHE easy.

Plates:
Standard material:
AISI 304 and AISI 316

Not standard:
254 SMO, hastelloy and other pressable materials.

Gasket:
The gasket is the unique ”Sonder Lock” gasket.
The ”Sonder Lock” gasket locks the plates together with strong
rubber buttons, so that the plates are strongly guided during the
assembling of the plate heat exchanger.

Standard material:
Nitrile and EPDM.

Not standard:
Viton.

 Laser Welding- Technology

A laser weld is build up out of a resonator in which an active medium (like gas) is present. To
activate this medium a energy source is present on the outside, like a high frequent generator
which increases the activity of the electrons, true which the light intensifies. True mirrors on
both sides of the resonator the light concentration increases, and finally is ready to be used for
many applications.

 Why Laser Welding?
Advantage against the half-pipe, spot resistance welding and dimple-jacket:

• Less labor hours

• Less material cost
• Flexibility welding process
• Good heat transfer
• Quality product-side of vessel
