Assembly, reconditioning and cleaning of heat exchangers

In addition to assembly of plate heat exchangers, LubeTeam Hydraulic takes you its assistance so that the performances of heat exchanger are efficient. This by the time tend to shrink due to the dirt or loss of sealing of the gaskets, causing unexpected interruptions to the production process.

The maintenance begins with the verification of the system and continues with the cleaning of the exchanger which can be done by CIP (Cleanin in Place) or chemical washing or with the dismantling and the complete washing.
A severe deformation or corrosion of the plates, then, involves the replacement of the same or the gaskets that age due to time and thermal stress.

LubeTeam Hydraulic’s technicians will examine the conditions of your heat exchanger and show you the most appropriate solution.

The plant verification takes place:

• Determining the type of dirt to choose the appropriate detergent to use;
• Evaluating the degree of clogging of the exchanger;
• Checking the treatment and discharge possibilities of the used detergents;
• Evaluating the size and number of exchangers for the choice of the washing unit;
• The presence of appropriate threaded fittings.
