AlfaNova
Manufactured with Alfa Laval’s patented AlfaFusion technology, AlfaNova is a heat exchanger consisting of corrugated stainless steel plates bonded together without any copper or nickel. The unique design means that AlfaNova can withstand more extreme temperatures and pressures with greater fatigue resistance than conventional brazed plate heat exchangers. It is also suitable for duties with very high hygiene demands.

AHRI for HVAC
AlfaNova heat exchangers are available with certification according to the Liquid-to-Liquid Brazed and Fusion-Bonded 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
Two media at different temperatures flow on either side of thin corrugated stainless steel plates that are stacked on top of each other. The two media flow in a countercurrent flow through alternate channels and are held within the plate pack by a fusion-bonded seal around the edge of the plates. The points at which the plates are in contact with each other are also bonded with the same technology, reinforcing the pack against the pressure of the media inside.
The countercurrent flow makes it possible to extract heat efficiently even when there are only extremely small differences between the temperatures of the hot and cold media. This results in notable energy cost savings. In some systems, co-current flows re also possible.

Unique features to boost your performance
With more than 80 years of experience in heat transfer innovation, Alfa Laval knows what it takes to deliver high-performance solutions for any application. Our experts continuously develop new innovations that give our AlfaNova line of fusion-bonded plate heat exchangers more reliable and efficient performance.
PressureSecure
Oöverträffad styrka för krävande arbetsuppgifter
Vår innovativa plattdesign supporterar det bredaste utbudet av högtemperatur- och högtrycksapplikationer. Enheterna kan köras med tunnare plattor och färre plattor, vilket betyder mindre råmaterial, lägre energiförbrukning, minskad kylmedelsladdning och längre livscykel.
FlexFlow
Överlägsen termisk prestanda
Alfa Lavals patenterade asymmetriska plattdesign är en av många unika innovationer som ger bättre termisk effektivitet tack vare optimerat tryckfall och ökad turbulens. Förutom att minska energiförbrukningen innebär det också att minska volymerna och råvarorna i kylmedel.
AlfaNova®
100% stainless steel
Built with 100% stainless steel, AlfaNova® is a solution that Alfa Laval offers for applications that use media not compatible with traditional heat exchanger materials. Not only is this advanced design optimized for use with natural refrigerants, it’s also completely recyclable.
Ett bränslecellssystem, byggt med Alfa Lavals plattvärmeväxlare är hållbart, säkert och kostnadseffektivt
När HEE Technologies GmbH, som är en tysk leverantör av förnybar energi, konstruerade bränslecellsystem för kombinerad värme och energi (CHP) var det ett lätt val att använda Alfa Lavals plattvärmeväxlare för kylning av staplade bränsleceller och avgasvärmeåtervinning. Systemet använder väte som energikälla, vilket gör det hållbart, säkert och kostnadseffektivt.
