Plate-Fin Heat Exchangers (PFHEs)

Linde Engineering is a global leader in the field of plate-fin heat exchanger technology, supplying over 12,000 units since production started in 1981.

Our aluminum plate-fin heat exchangers (PFHEs) are key components in many process plants. Their compact footprint helps save space and costs in a wide range of facilities, including air separation plants, petrochemical and gas treatment plants as well as natural gas and helium liquefaction plants.

Our PFHEs are brazed in vacuum furnaces without using flux. This means that all cores are delivered completely free from corrosive residue and post-brazing cleaning steps are not required.

Linde Engineering is also one of the founding members of the Aluminum Plate-Fin Heat Exchanger Manufacturers Association (ALPEMA).
