Heat Exchanger: Cleaning guidelines for heat exchangers
Heat
exchangers are used during
processing to optimize heat flow from one gas or liquid to another. Its failure
can be extremely costly to the company, resulting in shutdowns. Cleaning
and maintaining heat exchangers are also vital for upholding systems running
smoothly. We are leading Heat Exchanger Suppliers in India.
Fouling has a direct
effect on heat flow through the heat exchanger surface, and hence on the
process's overall operating efficiency and economics. Heat transfer systems will accumulate mineral
scales or oily contamination during assembly and operation which greatly reduce
the heat transfer performance of heat exchangers. Regular servicing keeps them
in good working order and tends to avoid emergency repairs.
This blog post
includes a variety of cleaning tips, saving you money & optimizing its
performance.
· -> Maintain a Timetable
Over time, certain processes allow heat exchangers to scale or foul.
Corrosion, pollen, soil, etc all contribute to fouling which reduces its
efficiency. It is important to maintain a cleaning regimen for them. Cleaning & maintenance
routines can be combined to ensure the machinery follows regulatory
requirements and is completely operational.
· ->High-Pressure Jetting
This is the most efficient way to clean the heat exchanger because of its
effectiveness in removing particles & deposits from the device. When
washing them, make sure all sediment is cleaned so the bare metal is seen. This would
increase the lifetime. Also, polishing the insides of the pipework can help
eliminate blemishes and thereby increase liquid throughput.
· ->External Tube Cleaning
External tube cleaning is usually more difficult, due to problems
accessing the area needed for cleaning, but it is usually easier from a fouling
side. Cleaning its exterior surface facilitates optical checks
