Comprehensive Plate Heat Exchanger Cleaning & Regasketing

Plate heat exchanger cleaning / maintenance is essential to keeping your system up and running.  Your system can experience buildup, port fouling, heavy scale, which leads to reduced efficiency, and ultimately slowly down your operations.  This is where preventative maintenance from North Road Service Center can help!

Cleaning & regasketing will get your system back to original performance.

Our step-by-step process includes:

1. Recording customer information, plate count, and gasket type of dirty plates received
2. Removal of old gaskets
3. Plates are pre-washed to remove loose debris
4. Plates are dipped in a hot caustic bath to remove any oils
5. Plates are removed from caustic and power washed
6. Plates are dipped in a non-corrosive acid solution to remove any buildup and staining
7. Plates are removed from the acid and power-washed again
8. Plates are manually cleaned for any leftover stains or fouling
9. Old gasket adhesive is removed from the gasket groove
10. Plates are coated with a dye penetrant and test for cracks and/or holes
11. Plates are pressure washed again to remove dye penetrant
12. Plates are inspected and new gaskets are installed (Adhesive bonded or clip-on)
13. Gasketed plates are inspected and crated for shipment or delivery
