Tempco’s spare parts ordering guide for plate heat exchangers

To ensure high thermal performance and long-lasting durability, choosing original spare parts for plate heat exchangers is essential. To support users in the correct selection of original spare parts for plates and gaskets, Tempco has developed a dedicated Manual that allows customers to always ensure the highest levels of efficiency and operational safety for their thermal management plants.

The Tempco Service team provides technical support for component identification, compatibility verification, and the supply of appropriate spare parts. First, it is necessary to identify the exchanger model, which is the basis for any spare parts request.

The exchanger model can be found from:

  • Identification plate attached to the exchanger
  • Technical drawings or thermal calculation sheets
  • Tempco supply documents

It is also helpful to provide:

  • Number of plates installed
  • Gasket type
  • Year of supply or serial number

The two tables below therefore offer valuable support when requesting spare parts for heat transfer plates and gaskets.

Finally, some helpful further tips:

  • Send clear photos of the plates and gaskets for quick identification.
  • Indicate the process fluid and operating conditions.
  • Tempco can provide plate reconditioning and regeneration with leak testing.
  • Keeping a spare set of gaskets reduces system downtime.
  • Observe recommended tightening torque values when reassembling.
