  • Fig. 5 a third embodiment of the heat exchanger 6 is shown.
  • the frame profile 17 covers a in the end region in cross-section T-shaped first insulating member 5 a the cavity 22 partially from.
  • the corrugated fins 21 are attached directly to the first insulating 5 a without a heat conducting plate 16.
  • Fig. 6 is an exploded view of the heat exchanger 6 without the second electrical insulating element 5 b shown, several PTC elements 1 are fixed or fixed in recesses of a fixing plate 25.
  • the first insulating 5 a, printed circuit boards 3, 4 and corrugated fins 21 with heat conducting plates 16 are arranged one above the other like a layer.
  • the two printed circuit boards 3, 4 are connected only by means of electrical contacts 26 or electrical lines to the surroundings of the heat exchanger 6 in order to be able to conduct electrical current through the two printed circuit boards 3, 4 and thus the PTC element 1.
  • the PTC element 1 and the two printed circuit boards 3, 4 are substantially completely electrically isolated from the environment, so that the high voltage can not pose any danger to the environment.
