Plate heat exchanger

摘要

The invention relates to a plate heat exchanger and a method for manufacturing a plate heat exchanger. The plate heat exchanger includes a number of heat exchanger plates ( 1 ), which are substantially parallel to an extension plane and arranged adjacent to each other in a plate package ( 2 ). A first end plate ( 8 ) and a second end plate ( 9 ) are arranged on a respective side of the plate package. A first tie sheet ( 10 ) and a second tie sheet are arranged on a respective side of the plate package substantially perpendicular to the extension plane. At least one connection member ( 17 ) extends between the tie sheets outside one of the end plates ( 9 ) and at least one beam ( 16 ) extends outside the second end plate ( 8 ) in parallel to an extension plane in engagement with the attachment of each tie sheet ( 10 ).
