PLATE STYLES
Unlike all other SUPERCHANGER models, the GX series of
plates is based on a diagonal fl ow pattern. On a typical one-by-
one pass unit, nozzle numbers 1 and 3 will be the hot inlet and
hot outlet connections. Nozzle numbers 2 and 4 are the cold inlet
and cold outlet located lower right and upper left, respectively.
Unlike other plates, GX series can also be designed for parallel
fl ow. The fl ow direction is always designated in the model number
by a “P” (parallel) or “D” (diagonal) after the letters “GX.”

ULTRAFLEX (GX) and WIDE-GAP (GF) plates differ from
conventional plates in another aspect. Because the gasket groove
lies in the plate’s neutral plane, additional confi gurations are
possible with a given plate. This feature allows the heat exchanger
to be more precisely designed for each application.
