Treatment measures after leakage of stainless steel tube heat exchanger
Anyone who has been engaged in the chemical industry for a long time will be familiar with the leakage of stainless steel tube heat exchangers, and product leakage can also cause serious consequences. So, what is the solution when it is leaked?
When a leak occurs, the feed water pressure is reduced and the amount of feed water sent to the boiler is reduced. Therefore, when leakage in the equipment piping system is discovered, the operation must be stopped immediately to reduce the number and degree of damage to the pipes. When the unit is out of service, you should check whether there is any leakage of Gaojia and find ways to eliminate it.

Stainless steel tube heat exchangerFor port leakage, the original weld metal should be scraped off and then repaired, and appropriate heat treatment should be performed to eliminate thermal stress. For leaks in the pipe itself, the form and location of the leakage in the pipe bundle should be first identified, and a suitable pipe plugging process should be selected to block the two ports of the pipe. No matter what pipe plugging process is used, in order to ensure the quality of the pipe plugging, the end of the plugged pipe must be well treated to make the tube plate and tube hole round and clean, and have a good contact surface with the plug. If there are cracks or erosion at the connection between the pipe and the tube sheet, the original pipe material and weld metal at the end must be removed to ensure that the plug is in close contact with the tube sheet.
