Thermal Systems

Plate Heat Exchanger Restoration

Fast CIP restoration for complex corrugated plates, costly gaskets and critical HVAC heat exchangers.

Materials compatibility

Titanium, SS316, SS304, copper, brass, cast iron, EPDM, Nitrile, Viton and PVC

The operating challenge

Reopen plate channels. Renew thermal performance.

Narrow corrugated plate channels trap mineral scale, silt and bio-film. Even a thin deposit restricts flow, raises differential pressure and compromises thermal conductance.

Restores approach temperature
Reduces outage duration
Protects plates and gaskets

Coordinated chemistry

The two-stage restoration system

Stage I · Product DI

Descale & inhibit

PRODUCT DI uses bio-based chelators, botanical wetting agents and organic corrosion inhibitors to dissolve mineral scale, iron deposits and hardness residues without aggressive metal erosion.

Stage II · Product DF

Flush & neutralize

PRODUCT DF is a clarifying neutral flush that removes suspended residue, returns the circuit to a neutral pH and conditions metallic and polymer surfaces for restart.

Clean-in-place protocol

A measured path to restart

  1. 01Isolate the exchanger and install bypass circulation hoses.
  2. 02Circulate DI at 1:10–1:20 for 3–6 hours below 45°C.
  3. 03Drain and circulate DF at 1:20 for 30–60 minutes.
  4. 04Complete a freshwater rinse and safely re-engage valves.
