Frequency of cleaning for air-cooled systems
Thread Content
Is your equipment cleaned once per production cycle or once a year?
Cycle ‘ One start-up cycle’
Clean it once before summer, and then just check its performance
Clean once per production cycle: lol
Clean it once during each shutdown, checking the cooling effect in between; clean the finned tubes by oneself – generally, one cleaning session during maintenance is sufficient.
What do you use to clean it with? Fire water?
Should it be done using the high-pressure nozzle on a fire truck, or should the employees use fire hoses to carry out the flushing?
Having one’s own employees use a water hose to clean the finned tubes doesn’t yield very good results, after all, there is only a little dust on those tubes.
I clean it about once every two weeks since the start of summer; after cleaning, the temperature drops by around 4°C
