High-efficiency brazed plate heat exchanger
Optimize your thermal processes with compact, high-efficiency heat exchangers, designed to tackle space constraints while ensuring maximum energy savings and reliable performance under demanding high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.

Enhances Heat Transfer and Thermal Efficiency
The Alfa Laval CB line of brazed plate heat exchangers is designed to maximize thermal efficiency in constrained environments. Utilizing an innovative copper-brazed, gasket-free construction, these exchangers offer robust performance under high pressure and temperature conditions. The asymmetric FlexFlow plate design optimizes heat transfer with a minimal refrigerant charge, catering to applications such as HVAC, refrigeration, and industrial cooling. With a compact footprint, these units seamlessly integrate into existing systems, reducing installation space. Models like the CB24 and CB210, optimized for specific refrigerants like propane (R290), ensure compliance with strict environmental regulations and sustainability goals. Available in pressure ratings from 32 to 90 bar, the units are AHRI-certified and recognized with multiple pressure vessel and marine approvals. With reduced energy consumption and improved performance, Alfa Laval’s heat exchangers are engineered for longevity and efficiency, supported by extensive customization and engineering expertise.
