The invention relates to a plate heat exchanger (1) and a method for manufacturing a plate heat exchanger. In a plate heat exchanger according to the invention, baffle plates (7, 7') have been arranged between the outer surface of the plate pack (6) and the outer casing surrounding the plate pack, which baffle plates form a flow channel (9) between the outer surface of the plate pack and the outer casing for at least one heat-yielding and/or at least one heat-receiving heat exchange medium from the inlet connection (4, 5) to the plate pack and a flow channel (9') from the plate pack to the outlet connection (4', 5').
