Mechanical cleaning of heat exchangers covers a wide range of measures to maintain performance and reliability. It includes internal cleaning – either on the tube side (carried out at the factory or directly on site) or on the housing side (at the factory).
Depending on the application, high-pressure cleaning or brush cleaning of the tube side is applied to remove deposits effectively. By cleaning both the inner and outer sides, the thermodynamic performance of the equipment can be significantly improved. This process not only optimises efficiency, but also contributes to corrosion protection, ensuring long-term durability and safe operation of your heat exchangers.
Key Service Solutions
Kelvion’s recoating service restores and protects heat exchangers exposed to fouling, corrosion, or aggressive operating conditions. After a thorough inspection and surface preparation, we apply advanced protective coatings that significantly improve resistance against corrosion and chemical or biological attack.
Spare parts and replacements play a crucial role in maintaining equipment reliability, performance, and longevity.
When your equipment reaches the end of its lifecycle or no longer meets your operational requirements, our replacement service provides a seamless transition to a new, optimised solution.
An effective spare parts management strategy ensures minimal downtime, optimised maintenance schedules, and cost-efficient operations. By keeping critical spare parts readily available, companies can respond quickly to unexpected failures and maintain continuous production. Additionally, using genuine or high-quality replacement parts helps preserve system efficiency, safety, and compliance with technical standards.
Upgrading or replacing heat exchangers improves energy efficiency, reliability, and system performance. Modern designs enable higher thermal efficiency,reduced pressure losses, and better integration into existing systems.
When upgrades are no longer sufficient, replacing aging heat exchangers provides a sustainable long-term solution, lowering maintenance needs and supporting current efficiency and regulatory requirements. Both options represent a strategic investment in operational performance and energy efficiency.
MORE SERVICES FOR COOLING TOWERS
Regular inspections and maintenance will ensure that your cooling towers remain in peak condition. We offer annual or periodic inspections and providedetailed reports on the condition of the cooling towers, plus recommendations for any improvements. This avoids unnecessary repair costs in the futureand unscheduled downtime. We have the skills to service all cooling tower types and brands. If an overhaul or revamp is needed, you can rest assuredthat the work will be done to the highest standard, with minimum disruption, resulting in equipment that is as good as new.
