VPE PRODUCTS

VPE creates high quality products.

Diffusion Bonded Microchannel Heat Exchangers (MCHEs)

VPE Thermal LLC, a subsidiary company of VPE, manufactures custom diffusion bonded microchannel heat exchangers (MCHEs), also known as printed circuit heat exchangers (PCHEs), for a diverse range of industries.   Furthermore, these compact heat exchangers are ideally suited for extreme pressure and temperature service applications.

Hydrogen Pre-Cooling Heat Exchangers (H2PC®)

VPE THERMAL® applies the same technology used to fabricate its diffusion bonded microchannel heat exchangers on its hydrogen pre-cooling heat exchangers (H2PC®).   Furthermore, these heat exchangers are ideal for high-pressure hydrogen applications where compact size is advantageous.

(Off-the-Shelf) Compact/Miniature Heat Exchangers

VPE THERMAL® offers its diffusion bonded microchannel heat Exchanger technology in a wide selection of smaller sized, commercial off-the-shelf models.  In addition, these compact/miniature heat exchangers outperform and compete with the standard products such as shell & tube, brazed plate, as well as welded plate heat exchangers.

High Temperature Retro-Reflectors

Retrolite brand high temperature retro-reflectors or retro-reflective targets are ideal for use as a permanent photoelectric target where ambient temperatures are as high as 900°F.  In addition, the target will retro-direct light in the entire visible spectrum as well as in the infrared.

Laminated & Clad Metal Sheet

VPE’s laminated & clad metal sheet is a composite of metals that have been bonded together at the atomic level.  Hence, VPE utilizes diffusion bonding and occasionally other methods to manufacture laminated clad & metal sheets.  In addition, they come in a wide range of alloys and configurations.  Furthermore, laminated & clad metal sheet provides a means of creating a composite material with performance properties not available from a single metal.
