GCD Series plates are ideal for applications with very small temperature difference, GCD-016, GCD-044 and GCD-054 plates are designed with a conventional herringbone pattern, a diagonal flow direction and with the gasket groove in the bottom plane. Standard gasket materials are NBR, EPDM and Flouroelastomer. Standard plate materials are EN 1.4301(304SS), EN 1.4401(316SS), and Titanium, but requirements for Hastelloy C-276, 254SMO or other cold-formed alloys can be accommodated. This allows the flexibility to satisfy a wide range of applications. Both high and low theta versions are available in all three GCP Series plates. Due to the deeper draw depth and the pattern in the flow distribution area, the GCP Series plates yield a significantly lower pressure drio than the corresponding GX Series plates. The plate design uses parallel flow direction, in contrast to the GX Series, which features diagonal flow across the plate. GCP Series plates are designed with a conventional herringbone pattern, with the gasket groove in the bottom plane.

The maximum temperatures used for sealing heat exchangers are between 80℃ and 200℃ while pressures can reach 25 bar. Gaskets, in addition to their sealing effect, serve to direct the flow of the fluids, and are placed along the grooves at the edges of the plates. In the PHE the plates create a frame where the plates are pressed with headers and tie bars, and the seal is guaranteed by gaskets.
