Alfa Laval CB brazed heat exchangers offers several advantages over traditional heat exchangers used in industrial, HVAC and refrigeration installations. Increased thermal efficiency within a compact unit makes it possible to tackle large-capacity duties where installation space is limited. The gasket-free design also allows for reliable performance in high-pressure and high-temperature applications. With a huge range of available sizes, capacities, plate patterns and connections, along with single-, dual- and multi-pass configurations, the available duties are practically endless. Additionally, CB units are available with AHRI certification as well as major pressure vessel and marine industry approvals.

Unique features to boost your performance
PressureSecure
Unparalleled strength for demanding duties
Our innovative plate designs support the widest range of high-temperature and high-pressure applications. Units can run using thinner plates and fewer plates, which translates to less raw material, lower energy consumption, reduced refrigerant charge and a longer equipment lifecycle.
REFuture
A future-proof investment for tomorrow’s refrigerants
As an innovative driver in the development of solutions for natural refrigerants, Alfa Laval brings years of experience working with products that enable the use of new-generation and low-GWP refrigerants to help you meet sustainability goals and any legislative requirements.
FlexFlow™
Superior thermal performance
Alfa Laval’s patented asymmetrical plate design is one of many unique innovations that gives you improved thermal efficiency thanks to optimized pressure drop and increased turbulence. In addition to cutting energy consumption, that means reducing refrigerant volumes and raw materials.
IceSafe
Controlled, non-destructive freezing
For applications that require it, we can supply plate heat exchangers designed to allow ice crystals to form under certain operating conditions, but displaced from sensitive areas. This ensures both reliable performance and a long product life.
Industries
Alfa Laval provides energy-saving heating solutions for the requirements of apartments, houses, commercial premises, industrial facilities or public buildings.
Renewable power generation can contribute to long-term sustainability of our planet and provide substantial benefits for our climate, health, and economy.
Thermal power generation increasing demand and stricter regulations call for finding new ways to supply electricity in an dependable, environmentally sound
Low GWP and efficiency are essential when it comes to air conditioning and heat pumps. Afla Laval offer heat exchangers that meet all the new requirements and regulations.
Alfa Laval helps customers around the world to cool down and/or filtrate hydraulic oils and lube oils for maximum performance. Fluid power uses fluids or air under pressure to generate, control, and transmit power.
With most cooling solutions involve one or more heat exchangers, Alfa Laval experts identifies solution for your specific cooling needs, customised from our range of comprehensive heat exchangers that are performance-certified to ensure reliable performance.
