Abstract

A heat exchanger has a plurality of flat tubes which alternate with fins, and the tubes and the fins are disposed one on another. Both ends of each tube are connected to a pair of right-hand and left-hand headers, in fluid communication with them. The headers have their ends closed with caps, and each cap has a pin integral with it so as to hold in place a bracket which is used to mount the heat exchanger on a structural base. The integral pins protrude upwards or downwards from the caps.
