Alfa Laval CB110-100M brazed plate heat exchanger, G 2", 100 plates, PN 27
- Application: primary/secondary loop separation — district heating, DHW, process
- Heat capacity: ~234-514 kW (depending on flow rate and ΔT)
- Nominal pressure: PN 27 (27 bar)
- Connection: G 2" external thread (both sides)
Where CB110-100M is used
This 100-plate brazed heat exchanger with a "M" (Medium theta) profile — medium chevron angle — balanced Δp and heat transfer. The CB110 series comprises compact, hermetic units that reliably separate primary and secondary loops in large commercial and industrial systems (district heating stations, process heat). The brazed gasket-free construction requires no periodic maintenance that gasketed exchangers would need — this reduces operating costs across the equipment lifecycle.

Heat transfer capacity — quick calculation
Capacity depends on flow rate, ΔT and logarithmic mean temperature difference (LMTD). General formula: P = Q × ΔT × 1.163 (kW, Q m³/h, ΔT °C).
Example for heating mode (primary 90/70 °C → secondary 65/40 °C): at Q = 10 m³/h and effective ΔT ≈ 20 °C → P ≈ 233 kW. With Q = 15 m³/h and ΔT ≈ 25 °C → P ≈ 436 kW.
When to choose CB110-100M

Frequently asked questions
What does "M" mean in CB110-100M?
"M" (Medium theta) — medium chevron angle. Balanced heat transfer and pressure drop. Suits most HVAC and DHW regimes.
Can glycol mixtures be used?
Yes. CB110 series exchangers are compatible with ethylene glycol and propylene glycol solutions up to 50 %, when appropriate inhibitors are used. For DHW — only potable-grade fluids allowed.
What maintenance is required?
Brazed gasket-free construction requires no periodic disassembly maintenance. Recommended only CIP (Clean-in-Place) flushing every 3-5 years if fouling signs appear (rising pressure drop or falling heat transfer).
Is it suitable for potable water?
Yes. Stainless steel plates and copper brazing meet potable water system requirements (WRAS, DVGW and similar certifications, depending on country).
Is it suitable for regions with aggressive water?
In some regions, district heating water contains elevated chlorides or ammonia — in such systems, copper brazing may shorten the exchanger's service life. In these cases we recommend the Alfa Laval AlfaNova series (stainless steel brazing, copper-free). For hard water with elevated Ca/Mg carbonate content, limescale gradually builds up on the plates and reduces heat-transfer efficiency; for such systems gasketed (plate-and-frame) exchangers are preferable, as they can be periodically opened for mechanical or CIP cleaning. Contact us — we will select the model best suited to your water conditions.
How to choose the right plate count?
Plate count is determined by required capacity, flow rates and allowable pressure drop. The same CB110 series with different plate counts covers different capacity classes — from small user branches to large primary loops. Contact us — we will provide a specific selection based on your project data.
