Vicarb V Series Plate Cross-Reference
Identify your model first, then request the right replacement plate, gasket set or complete unit — this page indexes all 18 V Series models in one table, from V4 to V280. ACME builds replacement plates and gaskets in-house and works as an all-brand heat exchanger supplier, so a single inquiry can cover every vicarb plate heat exchanger designation on your site.

Plates, gaskets, or a complete unit?
Most V Series inquiries start with one of three symptoms. Pick the row that matches what you are seeing at the unit, then send the items listed.
Worn, cracked or fouled plate pack
Damaged plate edges, pinholes found during cleaning, or a pack that no longer restores performance after washing usually points to plate replacement rather than a gasket issue.
Send us thisModel number, plate count in the pack, number of plates required, and photos of the damaged plates.
Leak at the gasket line
Visible weeping between plates, hardened or compressed gasket edges, or a leak that returns after re-torque are the classic signs that the gasket set needs renewing.
Send us thisModel number, number of plates, the gasket position being replaced, and the media the unit handles.
Frame at end of life or a new duty
When the frame, bars or tie bolts are no longer serviceable, or the process duty itself has changed, a complete gasketed unit can be configured instead of rebuilding.
Send us thisDuty description, media and flow on both sides, connection requirements, and any drawing or nameplate photo.
Match the duty to the request you send
The same V Series model number can sit in a comfort-cooling plant, an evaporator train or a heavy process loop. The application changes what you should specify in the inquiry, not the model lookup.
Comfort cooling and chilled-water duty
Standard gasketed units dominate here, so the decision is usually gasket set versus plate pack after each cleaning cycle.
Decision to makeReplace now during a planned shutdown, or hold a spare gasket set on site — the model number is the key both ways.
Plate evaporator and plate condenser duty
The V Series is named for duty that reaches from HVAC through to plate evaporator and plate condenser service, where plate-to-gasket fit matters most.
Decision to makeMatch the original plate pattern exactly — send the model, plate count and the media on each side so the pack is checked against the right mold.
High-pressure and demanding process loops
Where gasketed construction is the limiting factor, a different frame type may be the better answer than another gasket change-out.
Decision to makeCompare a replacement gasketed pack with a plate and shell construction before committing to the rebuild.
Fitment and interchangeability notice
OEM brand names and model designations, including Vicarb and the V Series references (V4 through V280), are used on this page for identification and cross-reference only. Replacement plates and gaskets are produced by ACME and are not manufactured by the original equipment manufacturer.
Model names are the reliable starting point, not the final confirmation. Plate pattern, plate count and gasket geometry are checked against the model and details you supply before any replacement part is quoted, so an unverified order is never placed on a name match alone.

What comes back with your quote
Every V Series inquiry is handled as a plate-and-gasket job, and the support work around it is what turns a model number into a part that fits.
- Coverage across the full seriesV4, V7, V8, V13, V20, V28, V45, V55, V60, V85, V100, V110, V120, V130, V180, V205, V260 and V280 are all listed for this range.
- Design supportVicarb plate heat exchanger design support is offered alongside the replacement parts themselves.
- Gasket installationGasket installation is a listed service, useful when the pack is being rebuilt on site rather than exchanged.
- Dye penetrant testingDye penetrant testing is available for plates where a documented inspection is required.
- Inventory management and custom configurationStock planning for spares, plus custom heat exchanger configuration for duties that no longer match the original build.
Why the mold library matters more than the brochure
Replacement fit depends on tooling. ACME runs a dedicated production line for heat exchanger plates and gaskets, and the breadth of that tooling is what makes a model lookup useful instead of a dead end.
The same all-brand service desk covers gasketed, brazed and welded plate heat exchangers, so a mixed plant can be quoted in one pass rather than one vendor per nameplate.

Plate and Shell Heat Exchangers for High-Pressure Process Duty
A plate and shell exchanger splits two jobs that gasketed plate units normally merge, with the plate bundle handling heat transfer and a cylindrical shell taking over pressure containment.

Gasketed and brazed plate heat exchangers differ mainly in how the plate pack is sealed, and that choice decides whether a unit can be opened for cleaning.
