About this machine
This GEA M10-MBASE is a used plate heat exchanger — sometimes referred to as a plate-and-frame heat exchanger — designed for efficient thermal transfer in beverage processing and related industrial applications. GEA is a well-established German engineering group with a long history of supplying process equipment to the food, beverage, dairy, and chemical industries worldwide. Plate heat exchangers of this type are used to heat, cool, or pasteurise liquid products by passing fluids through a series of corrugated metal plates arranged to maximise surface contact and thermal efficiency while keeping the two media separate.
The unit carries a heat transfer area of 2.6 m² and operates with a total internal volume of 13 litres. Its plates are manufactured from stainless steel Alloy 316 at 0.50 mm thickness, making them suitable for food-grade and corrosive-media applications. The gaskets are NBRFF Clip-On type — nitrile rubber — which allow straightforward removal and replacement without specialist tooling, simplifying maintenance and cleaning-in-place (CIP) procedures. The plate pack has a compressed thickness of 63 mm, and the frame is secured with M20 tightening bolts measuring 360 mm in length.
Overall dimensions are 672 mm in height, 618 mm in width, and 530 mm in depth, with a total weight of 232 kg. Connections are to DIN NW100 standard. The exchanger is designed for a working pressure of 10 bar, with a test pressure of 14.3 bar confirming structural integrity, and is rated for operating temperatures between 0 °C and 120 °C.
Datasheet flow examples illustrate the unit's performance across typical beverage applications: wine can be processed at 2,000 L/h while being heated from 12 °C to 17 °C at a pressure drop of 47 kPa; hot water circuits can be handled at the same 2,000 L/h flow rate, cooling from 30 °C to 24 °C at 22 kPa; and fruit juice can be heated from 21 °C to 75 °C using 90 °C hot water at a flow rate of 240 L/h, with a pressure drop in the range of 40–50 kPa. These figures reflect the unit's suitability for pasteurisation duties covering wine, juice, and beer, as well as general process heating and cooling roles.
The design incorporates parallel flow channels across the plate pack for high thermal efficiency and low pressure drop. A notable feature is the unit's expandability: up to 17 additional plates can be installed within the existing frame, allowing capacity to be increased without replacing the unit. The A/B plate marking system aids correct assembly during servicing. The exchanger is located in Germany and is offered in used condition.
