Abstract

A device which is used to replace heat, for a motor vehicle, includes at least one first collecting and/or distribution device for at least one fluidic medium. The collecting and/or distribution device is fluidically connected to a plurality of through-flow devices, through which the medium flows at least in parts. The collecting and/or distribution device includes at least one base device, a covering device and a separating device, which divides the collecting and/or distribution device into at least two partial areas. The base device includes at least one projection which protrudes in an inward manner from a predetermined plane of the base device in relation to the collecting and/or distribution device and at least one section of the separating device is in contact with at least one lateral side of the projection, and at least one section of the plane of the base device is in indirect contact.
