Pillow Plate Heat Exchangers

United Cooling Systems Pvt. Ltd. is a leading manufacturer specializing in pillow plate heat exchangers. The business is well known for its proficiency in providing superior, dependable, and effective heat exchange solutions that are customized to satisfy the various needs of its customers.

What is a Pillow Plate Heat Exchanger?

A pillow plate heat exchanger is a type of heat exchanger made from two thin metal sheets that are laser-welded together in a special pattern. When fluid flows between these plates, the sheets expand and form a pillow-shaped surface, which increases the heat transfer area.

Hot and cold fluids flow on opposite sides of the plate, allowing heat to move efficiently from one fluid to the other without mixing. Request a Quote
