The present invention discloses a heat exchanger (4) according to claim 1. The heat exchanger (4), in particular for use in a traction battery (1) of an electric vehicle, comprising at least one fluid distributor (8) for connection to a heat transport fluid supply line of a heat exchange circuit, at least one fluid collector (10) for connection to a heat transport fluid return line of the heat exchange circuit, and multiple heat exchanger channels (5), which interconnect the at least one fluid distributor (8) and the at least one fluid collector (10) and which provide a passage way for a heat transport fluid from the at least one fluid distributor (8) to the at least one fluid collector (10), wherein the heat exchanger channels (5) are provided with at least one common contact surface (6) for contacting a heat exchange target, in particular battery cells (3) of the traction battery (1). The heat exchanger (4) is characterized in that,—the heat exchanger channels (5) are compressible upon exertion of a force in a direction perpendicular to the contact surface (6) from their normal shape to a compressed shape, and-the heat exchanger (4) is provided for being mounted with the heat exchanger channels (5) compressed into their compressed shape. The present invention further discloses a traction battery (1) according to claim 15. The present invention further discloses a method according to claim 16.
