BX8THx20/1P-SC-S 4x3/4"&16 designates a SWEP BX8T brazed plate heat exchanger with 20 plates in the pack. Its H plates are the high-theta pattern - the choice when the leaving temperature is tight and the pump has head to spare. Reading the string: /1P is single pass; -SC is 316/316L stainless steel plates joined with copper. The closing S is the pressure class: 31 bar at 155 C. Connections are listed as 4x3/4"&16, in port order. The BX8T plate pack measures 315 x 73 mm (12.4 x 2.87 in) on 278 x 40 mm port centres, and by SWEP's published weight formula a 20-plate unit comes to about 2.0 kg (4.5 lb) dry. Maximum flow for the frame is 4 m3/h (17.61 GPM); that is a ceiling for the ports, not a duty point. Treat each side as an independent circuit when you ask for a quote: give both flows and what each fluid is.
