Bell Gossett BP415-34 Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger

Product Description

The BELL GOSSETT BP415-34 is a brazed plate heat exchanger designed for hydronic heating, cooling, and process fluid transfer applications. It delivers up to 15 gallons per minute at 5 psi differential and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 435 psi and a maximum working temperature of 435 degrees F. The compact stainless steel plate-and-braze construction provides high thermal efficiency in a small footprint, making it well suited for residential and light commercial mechanical rooms. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians are the primary installers for this type of equipment.

This brazed plate heat exchanger is used in hydronic radiant heating systems, domestic hot water generation, geothermal ground-loop isolation, chiller-to-loop applications, and similar fluid-to-fluid heat transfer installations. Its 1-inch connection size accommodates standard threaded or sweat fittings common in residential and commercial piping systems. The unit is packaged individually and ships as a single assembly ready for installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or HVAC technician in accordance with local mechanical codes and ASHRAE guidelines. Isolate and depressurize both fluid circuits and shut off all associated pumps before removing or installing the unit. Use thread sealant or approved fittings appropriate for the system operating pressure and temperature. Inspect all connections for leaks during initial system pressurization before returning the system to service.
