Schmidt-Bretten Sigma

Gasketed plate heat exchangers with high efficiency in the food, pharmaceutical, chemical and energy industries.

Key specifications

  • Flows up to 4500 m³/h
  • Pressure up to 30 bar

Description

The Schmidt® SIGMA gasketed plate heat exchanger features a unique plate corrugation pattern that maximizes heat transfer efficiency by promoting turbulent flow and uniform fluid distribution. Designed for true counter-current operation, it handles demanding temperature conditions with outstanding thermal performance.

Custom-fit, clip-on gaskets provide a secure seal and simplify maintenance without adhesives, while a double-seal system between flow channels prevents fluid mixing and allows for safe external leak detection.

Low-volume flow gaps enable rapid thermal response and minimize the use of costly process media. The modular design supports easy expansion and reconfiguration to meet evolving process needs.

Available in a wide range of plate sizes and profiles, the SIGMA series is ideal for applications across industry, HVAC, energy, and food processing sectors.
