In a plate heat exchanger (2) comprising a stack of plates (4) pressed together to define flow spaces (24) between pairs of adjacent plates, the stack being compressed together between a head (10) and a follower (14) by means of load bearing rails (6, 8), the head (10) and the follower (14) are urged together by tie bars (16). To obtain even compression of the plates (4) the tie bars (16) are as close as possible to the flow spaces (24). In one embodiment, at least one tie bar (16) extends through a cut-out (15a) formed within a plate area, the cut-out being bounded at the outer periphery of one of the plates. |
