Abstract

The plate heat exchanger has a number of plates (1,1') positioned one after the other for forming a stack, with alternating closed channels for a heat dissipation medium and a heat reception medium formed by elastic seals (4) inserted between the adjacent plates. The seals have integral elastic nipples (25) fitted in holes (26) in the plates, each nipple having a cross-section which is less than the cross-section of the hole, but projecting beyond its periphery at several points.
