TIMELY CLEANING OF HEAT EXCHANGER FOR BETTER
PERFORMANCE

• Cleaning the exchanger is indeed a strenuous work
  that should be done under the assistance of
  professionals. It is also considered as a
  time-consuming as well as a costly process.
  However, you cannot really skip the bit. To make
  sure that the heat exchanger always remains in
  excellent working condition, you have to clean
  and maintain it within a scheduled time.

What Affects an Exchanger the Most?

• Well, the most common cause because of which the
  heat exchangers get affected the most is
  undoubtedly the heat or high temperature. To put
  it more clearly, it is the fluctuations in the
  temperature that affects the machinery or
  equipment. And, the harm gets doubled up if the
  machinery does not get cleaned up.

How Often Should You Clean the Heat Exchanger?

• Thats the most common question that pops up when
  it comes to the topic of heat exchanger cleaning.
  Sadly, most of the people usually take the
  cleaning job for granted. As a result, the dirt
  gets piled up, and the heat keeps on affecting
  the machinery, making the efficiency of the
  machine drop radically.
• Well, honestly, you dont need to clean up the
  exchanger regularly. Also, it depends on the type
  of fluid used for the machine or the level of
  using the machinery - these factors often bring
  some change in the maintenance protocol.

• According to the heat exchanger manufacturer, you
  should be cleaning up the machine once every 4-6
  years. However, if the equipment is quite old or
  requires more frequent servicing, it is advised
  to increase the frequency.

The Process of Cleaning Heat Exchangers

• There are two basic methods of cleaning and
  maintaining this special equipment. There is a
  reactive method and the proactive method. The
  proactive maintenance method involves checking up
  the equipment following a regular routine. On the
  other hand, reactive means in-assembling the
  entire machine and carrying out a thorough clean
  up.
• Evidently, the proactive cleaning for the
  different types of heat exchangers may be done
  following the DIY method. Still, for the reactive
  process of cleaning, you will undoubtedly need
  the help of professionals.

• Proactive cleaning is counted as the first stage
  of equipment maintenance. Through this process,
  you can check out the irregularity or probable
  faults in the equipment. Thus, you can take note
  of the damage probability and take the necessary
  steps to fix those up.
• Its basically a process of analyzing the
  performance of the heat exchanger after the
  necessary cleaning is done where monitoring the
  changes in pressure and temperature is being
  considered.

• Whereas the proactive maintenance takes place on
  the site, the reactive cleaning and maintenance
  process is done off the site. In this process,
  gaskets, nozzles, plates, tubings, and frames of
  the machine along with the other parts depending
  on the types of heat exchangers are being
  examined thoroughly and make sure that the device
  is in its perfect working condition for a long
  time.
• So, now you have understood the essential facts
  regarding the maintenance of this particular
  machine in question, its time to have a
  consultation with the heat exchanger manufacturer
  and get to know more tips on the cleaning and
  maintenance procedure closely.

• A traditional disperser obviously can not reach
  the same dispersion rate nor can it accommodate
  this difficult process of mixing. The Ultimate
  High Speed Twin Shaft Disperser is a great
  alternative to high-pressure homogenizers when it
  comes to making fine food emulsions such as
  mayonnaise, mustard sauce, peanut butter,
  ketchup, etc.
