Reconditioning of a Compabloc

Here we would like to give you an insight into the complete reconditioning of a Compabloc plate heat exchanger. Here we show you the following steps (by clicking on the respective area you will get there directly):

> Dismantling

> Pollution

> Cleaning

> Re-gasketing

> Assembly

> Pressure test

 

An overview of the general reconditioning of plate heat exchangers can be found here:

Reconditioning Compabloc

Disassembly of the cover plates

First, the cover plates of the Compabloc plate heat exchanger are disassembled, so that the actual cleaning can take place.

Contamination in circuit A and B of the plate heat exchanger

Contamination in the circuit A | acid water

The pollution in the circuit A consisted of a deposit of sour water, a mixture of hydrogen sulfide and ammonia.

Pollution in the cycle B | cooling water

Pollution in circuit A consisted of a mineral deposit.

Cleaning the plate heat exchanger

Before cleaning

After cleaning

Re-gasketig – appling new gaskets

Assembly of the plate heat exchanger after cleaning
