Maintaining Heat Exchanger Tubes Clean

ATCS-Industrial conserves the heat exchange efficiency of tube and shell heat exchangers by maintaining the exchanger tubes free of fouling. Rubber balls are recirculated at set time intervals to capture deposits accumulated in the heat exchanger tubes.

ATCS-Industrial reduces plant downtime and optimizes efficiency

ATCS is the most efficient automatic on-line solution for keeping heat exchanger tubes continuously clean and providing optimal heat exchange:

  1. Maintains process efficiency by optimizing the heat transfer capacity of heat exchangers.
  2. Increases plant productivity by preventing stoppage days otherwise required for manual cleaning of the tubes

How ATCS Works

The CQM ATCS is installed on steam condensers and keeps tubes clean without human intervention. The system periodically injects into the tubes sponge balls that are slightly larger in diameter then the tubes themselves. The natural pressure head pushes the balls through the tube, which is thus rubbed clean. The balls are then trapped in the outlet of the condenser, where they are prepared for the next cleaning cycle.

Typical industrial installations take less than 50 man hours, and require only a few hours of process shutdown.

Trapping units are available in a variety of shapes and flow configurations to accommodate piping routes design and available space for installation
