VEMO V15-61-0017 Heating

VEMO V15‑61‑0017 Heating

The VEMO V15‑61‑0017 is a high‑performance heat exchanger designed for automotive interior heating systems. It delivers reliable warmth to the cabin by transferring heat from the engine coolant or exhaust gases to the air that circulates inside the vehicle. Its compact design and robust construction make it an ideal choice for modern cars, especially those requiring efficient cabin temperature control.

Key Design Features

• Compact Plate Structure: The unit employs a series of finely machined plates that maximize surface area while keeping the overall size minimal. This allows it to fit into tight engine bay spaces without compromising airflow.
• Durable Materials: Constructed from high‑grade stainless steel and reinforced with titanium alloys, the V15‑61‑0017 resists corrosion, thermal fatigue, and mechanical stress over long service periods.
• Optimized Flow Paths: The internal geometry ensures smooth coolant flow on one side and efficient air passage on the other. This dual‑channel design reduces pressure drop and improves heat transfer efficiency.
• Integrated Mounting Flanges: Standard mounting flanges allow for straightforward installation in a variety of vehicle platforms, including those from major manufacturers such as Audi and Volkswagen Group.

Performance Characteristics

The V15‑61‑0017 is engineered to handle high coolant temperatures while maintaining low air outlet temperatures. Its thermal conductivity exceeds 200 W/(m·K), enabling rapid heat exchange even under demanding operating conditions. The unit can operate continuously at engine temperatures up to 120 °C, providing consistent cabin warmth without overheating.

Installation and Compatibility

Designed for seamless integration, the V15‑61‑0017 fits into most existing heating system architectures. Its modular design allows it to replace older heat exchangers or be added as an auxiliary unit in vehicles that require additional cabin heating capacity. The standard flange sizes match those used in many European and North American models, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of vehicle makes.

Maintenance and Longevity

One of the standout qualities of this heat exchanger is its low maintenance requirement. The stainless steel construction resists scale buildup, while the robust plate design prevents corrosion at critical junctions. Routine inspections typically involve checking for coolant leaks or air blockage; otherwise, the unit can operate reliably for thousands of miles with minimal intervention.
