Product Spotlights
Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory (established in 1998) is proud to present our Pillow Plate Heat Exchanger 316L Stainless Steel with 20 Bar Pressure Rating and Sanitary Finish. Designed for demanding hygienic processes, this heat exchanger combines high thermal efficiency with excellent corrosion resistance. Our factory has been manufacturing precision metal components for over 25 years, and we bring that expertise to every pillow plate unit we produce.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- High-Pressure Capability: Rated for 20 bar working pressure, suitable for steam, hot water, or thermal oil applications.
- Sanitary Finish: Surfaces are polished to Ra ≤ 0.8 µm (mirror finish), meeting hygienic standards for food, dairy, and pharmaceutical industries.
- 316L Stainless Steel Construction: Offers superior resistance to chlorides, acidic media, and high-temperature sterilization (CIP/SIP).
- Efficient Heat Transfer: Pillow plate design creates turbulent flow, enhancing heat transfer coefficient up to 30% compared to conventional flat plates.
- Compact & Lightweight: Reduces installation space and structural load; ideal for retrofitting existing systems.
- Fully Welded Construction: No gaskets in the main flow path – eliminates leak points and contamination risks.
- Customizable Ports: Available with Tri-Clamp, flanged, or threaded connections per your requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the maximum pressure for this pillow plate heat exchanger?
A: The standard design is rated for 20 bar (290 psi). Higher pressure ratings (e.g., 30 bar) are available upon request with reinforced plate thickness.
Q2: Can this heat exchanger be used for CIP (clean-in-place) applications?
A: Yes, the 316L stainless steel with sanitary finish (Ra ≤ 0.8 µm) is fully compatible with CIP chemicals and steam sterilization at up to 150°C.
Q3: What connections are available?
A: We offer Tri-Clamp, sanitary flange, NPT threaded, and even custom port configurations. Please specify your requirement when ordering.
Q4: Is the heat exchanger suitable for heating viscous fluids?
A: The pillow plate design creates turbulence, which helps improve heat transfer to viscous media. However, we recommend a process evaluation for extremely high viscosity fluids.
Q5: Do you provide certificates of material (EN 10204 3.1)?
A: Yes, we can provide mill test certificates for 316L stainless steel upon request. Third-party inspection is also acceptable.
Q6: What is the typical lead time?
A: For standard sizes, lead time is 15–20 working days. Custom designs require 25–30 days. Rush orders are possible.
Q7: Can you supply pressure vessels with ASME U stamp?
A: ASME stamped vessels are available as an optional upgrade. Please contact us for details on certification and additional costs.
Q8: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: MOQ is 1 piece for sample orders. For bulk orders, we offer volume discounts. Feel free to inquire.
