B8LASHx30/1P-SC-M 4x3/4"&16(20)

The B8LASHx30/1P-SC-M 4x3/4"&16(20) is a 30-plate build of the SWEP B8LAS. The H plate is the obtuse chevron: it gives the most heat transfer per plate and the most pressure drop, so it suits duties where approach temperature matters more than pump head. The /1P-SC fields read as single pass, with 316/316L stainless steel plates and a copper braze. The closing M is the pressure class: up to 45 bar at 135 C, fatigue tested. Connections are listed as 4x3/4"&16(20), in port order. The B8LAS plate pack measures 317.7 x 76.2 mm (12.51 x 3.00 in) on 278 x 40 mm port centres, and by SWEP's published weight formula a 30-plate unit comes to about 2.6 kg (5.8 lb) dry. The frame is published to 4 m3/h (17.61 GPM) - a port limit rather than a design flow. Depth is the one dimension that changes across the plate counts of a series, so measure the space behind the unit before moving to a larger pack.
