Heat Exchange Area: 2.400m²
A 5/4" heat exchanger with a plate length of 526mm. This device consists of 40 plates with a nominal power of 440 kW (a high parameter). It can be used with almost any heat source, such as larger boilers or a combination of heating boilers, but it is most commonly utilized as a heat exchanger for monoblock heat pumps. It is a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger designed for connecting heat pumps in a water-glycol system, particularly units requiring a large water charge and low pressure losses (-->which will be ensured by the 5/4" connections).
Technical details:
Ba-60-40 is a heat exchanger designed for transferring thermal energy between fluids. It should not operate with high-pressure media (above 30 bar) such as freon or gas, which have the potential for sudden pressure spikes or work at pressures higher than 30 bar. If you are looking for a plate heat exchanger for refrigerant - to work as a heat pump condenser and you are interested in a model similar to this one - check out the Ba-68-40-F model.
The heat exchange surface area is the most important and only objective factor that determines the efficiency of a heat exchanger. The above model of heat exchanger has 40 steel plates, each with a surface area of 0.60m², totaling 2.40m². This is a surface area that allows for cooperation with numerous models of heat pumps, if they need to be connected to central heating (e.g. in a glycol/water or water/water system). If you need a heat exchanger with a larger surface area, you can find additional models from the Ba-60 series in the above diagram, which are also available in our store.

(D) - 73 mm
The above heat exchanger is very often used to connect a heat pump working on glycol with a central heating system (which works on water). The 40-plate model is perfect for this due to the fairly large heat transfer surface - i.e. 2.40 m2.
In practice, 40-plate heat exchanger can handle heat pumps from 10 to 20 kW - and it depends primarily on the supply temperature of the system by the heat pump. It should be remembered that heating systems in which the heat pump is to operate at extremely low temperatures (e.g. based on underfloor heating) require a larger heat exchanger than systems powered by high temperature (e.g. based on radiators).
