1. General description
The heat exchanger is a "shell and tube" type. Baffles are fitted to direct fluid radially over tubes and for stiffening of tubestack. The tubes are roller expanded into tube sheets at both ends. One tube sheet is fixed to shell and sealed with jointings, the other end is free to expand and sealed with pair of O-rings, separated by gland ring.
The shell is made from mild steel, and covers are from cast iron.
Tube sheet, baffles and tubes are generally made from alloyed copper.
2. Storage Bare surfaces must be treated with rust inhibitor if storage period exceeds 3 months. Special precautions must be taken to protect heat exchanger from corrosion damage if left out of service for extended periods.
3. Installation
The heat exchanger is intended for horizontal mounting.
Fixation is by bolting through holes in mounting brackets.
Important: The heat exchanger must be mounted in such a way that it is possible to withdraw tube stack for inspection and service.
4. Start-up
During start-up always make sure that coolest fluid is flowing before applying the hot/warm fluid to heat exchanger.
Check that trapped air is vented.
5. Maintenance Zinc or soft iron anodes must be inspected at least every third month until rate of consumption is established.
Rate of anode consumption is dependent on fluid quality, pipe system and machinery connected to the heat exchanger. No. 1400-0172-4 Instruction manual / Spare part list Date/sign.: 26 Jun 1995 Hydraulic oil cooler DPK406 Page: 3 of 5 Rev.: B 14Jun01/SG
Damage caused by insufficient anodic protection is not covered by guarantee. The heat exchanger may need cleaning at regular intervals based on service experience.
Yearly inspections in order to establish fouling rate are recommended. Flushing with chemical detergents for cleaning must be followed by thorough procedure for removal of detergents.
Make sure to use only chemicals compatible with material in heat exchanger. Mechanical brushing of tubes, using metal brushes, must be done with care in order not to damage tubes.
6. Disassembly / Assembly
If heat exchanger must be disassembled for inspection or service it is recommended to
work according to following sequence:
- Close off all pipe lines.
- Open air vent plugs on top of heat exchanger. - Remove drain plugs and drain off all fluid. - Remove end cover / water boxes. - Remove stuffing ring and o-rings. - Push tube bundle out so far that a strap can be secured to "fixed end". - Pull tube bundle out while using straps around stack to carry the weight.
Before assembling the heat exchanger:
- Check that flanges and other sealing surfaces are clean and unharmed. - Check that seals, gaskets and O-rings are in good shape. - It is not recommended to re-use gaskets or O-rings, since these may have lost elastic properties due to service temperature and ageing.
