Plates Chevron pressed
Service Full lifecycle
01
Pressed chevron plates
Embossed herringbone plates force turbulent flow, multiplying heat transfer in a minimal footprint.
02
Sealed gasket channels
Alternating gaskets route hot and cold media through adjacent channels without ever mixing.
03
Clamped plate pack
Tie bolts compress the pack between the frames — fully serviceable, expandable and pressure-tested.
02 What we do
Complete plate heat exchanger services
Design, supply, servicing and replacement parts — from new heat exchanger selection to cleaning, regasketing and full rebuilds, tailored to each application.
01
Workshop servicing
Strip-down, acid wash and high-pressure clean, crack testing, re-gasketing and rebuild at our Granville workshop.
02
On-site servicing
Condition checks, leak detection, dimensional checks and tie-bolt adjustment at your facility.
03
Cleaning & regasketing
Remove fouling, including clean-in-place options, and renew gaskets selected for your media.
04
Rebuilds
Replacement plates or complete plate packs to return an older unit to service.
05

06
Design & supply
New gasketed and brazed units selected and sized for your duty.
Compatible & OEM parts
Parts to keep your unit at peak efficiency
Replacement plates, gaskets and plate packs for many makes and models — high-quality compatible parts that match or exceed OEM specification, with genuine OEM available on request.
03 Industries we serve
Trusted across demanding sectors
Heat-transfer solutions wherever reliability matters — from oil & gas and mining to food processing and marine.
04 Why Brantec
Minimising downtime, maximising transfer
We keep things straightforward — understand the real duty, build from robust materials, and back every unit with preventative and remedial service so your process keeps running.
Application-specific design
Every plate heat exchanger is sized and configured to your thermal, pressure and fluid conditions rather than an off-the-shelf compromise. We work with your technical staff to define the right plate configuration and materials.
Minimised downtime
Preventative and remedial servicing — on-site inspection and troubleshooting, or full refurbishment at our Granville workshop. We plan maintenance around your scheduled shutdowns to limit disruption.
Fast parts turnaround
High-quality compatible plates and gaskets that match or exceed OEM specification, for many makes and models — genuine OEM available on request. Gasket materials such as NBR, EPDM and Viton; plate materials including stainless steel and titanium.
Robust construction
Frames and plate materials selected for demanding industrial environments — including titanium and corrosion-resistant alloy options for aggressive media.
Cross-industry experience
Practical application experience across manufacturing, food and beverage, energy, mining and other industrial sectors helps us recommend fit-for-purpose solutions.
05 How we work
A simple, documented process
Whether the work happens at your site or in our workshop, every job follows the same steps — and finishes with a written service report.

- Assess
- Service or redesign
- Test
- Return to operation
06 Insights
From the workshop
-
Preparing a plate heat exchanger for a service inspection
A short checklist that makes the visit faster and more useful.
-
How fouling affects plate heat exchanger performance
A thin layer of deposit insulates the plate and narrows the channels.
-
Repair, redesign or replace? Deciding what to do with an ageing plate heat exchanger
Frame condition, plate condition and whether the duty has changed usually decide it.
