Abstract: The invention describes a method for producing a plate heat exchanger 1. Wavy profiled sheets 9 and separating sheets 10, together with sidebars 11, are stacked one above the other, provided with solder and soldered together in such a way that a block 2 is obtained. The block is closed off outwardly by means of the cover sheets 12. The contours of the intermediate pieces 3 are milled out at the respective positions 4 on the block 2 thus obtained. In a refinement of the invention, frames are used as intermediate pieces 3. The frames 3 are positioned in the milled-out portions at the positions 4, provided with solder and tacked on by means of spot welding. Subsequently, in a second step, the frames 3 are soldered onto the heat exchanger block 2. The headers 5a and 5b are in each case welded onto the frames 3.

Abstract: A plate heat exchanger includes a heat exchanger block having a plurality of heat exchange passages. On the heat exchanger block, a header is mounted that extends over at least one part of one side of the heat exchanger block and establishes a flow connection between the heat exchange passages. The plate heat exchanger is provided with a fluid connection, which is formed by the header-side end of a pipeline. The fluid connection is essentially perpendicular to the side of the heat exchanger block over which the header extends. Within the pipeline directly in front of the header, there is a flow guide.
