<p>A plate heat exchanger (1) comprises a plate package (2) of permanently connected heat exchanger plates that defines a surrounding wall (4). Two mounting plates (7) are permanently connected to an end surface (5) of the plate package (2), in spaced relation to each other. Each mounting plate (7) comprises opposing flat engagement surfaces connected by an edge portion that extends along the perimeter of the mounting plate (7). Each mounting plate (7) is arranged with one of its engagement surfaces permanently connected to the end surface (5), such that the perimeter of the mounting plate (7) partially extends beyond the surrounding wall (4), to define a mounting flange, and partially extends across the end surface (5) in contact with the same within the perimeter of the surrounding wall (4). The perimeter of the mounting plate (7) defines a concave shape comprising two concave portions (15) as seen in a normal direction to the end surface (5), the concave portions (15) being located to intersect the surrounding external wall (4).</p> |
