Brazed Plate Heat Exchanger

This Revit family provides a technical representation of a brazed plate heat exchanger, featuring four connection ports for HVAC. The model represents a compact, high-efficiency brazed plate heat exchanger designed for thermal transfer applications within building services. It features a rectangular, monolithic body with rounded vertical edges and four circular connection ports located on the front face. The geometry is simplified for efficient BIM integration, focusing on accurate port placement and overall dimensions rather than complex internal plate patterns. The assembly is finished in a neutral grey, suitable for MEP coordination models where clear identification of mechanical plant and equipment is required for clash detection and spatial planning.

The download is a 399 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Engineers should load this family into the mechanical template and place it within the plant room or HVAC equipment schedule. Use the connection points to snap pipework runs directly to the component, ensuring that the system browser correctly identifies the flow and return paths. Parameters allow for the adjustment of port diameters to match project-specific pipe sizing requirements, assisting in the generation of accurate equipment schedules and coordination drawings within the Revit environment for mechanical services design coordination.
