Autoclave heat exchanger?

[spareparts]

Would it hurt a plate heat exchanger to autoclave it?

I just received one from dudadiesel on Ebay and it says the operating temp is 225F. Autoclaving is easy and convenient for me cause I can just have one of the labs run it through when they do their daily autoclaving.

Some people bake them int he oven. I don't see a problem with it.

I just received a reply from dudadiesel and he said that the max operating temp is 220C not F, so autoclaving should be just fine.
