Before CleaningAfter Cleaning

Warco Industrial Heat Transfer offers its customers a very comprehensive, cost effective and safe heat exchanger program. One that is proven and allows customers to focus on their core business all the while knowing that their assets are being restored to the highest levels the industry has to offer.

Planning and execution:

  • Warco offers its customers a single point of contact from the pre-planning sequence of events to deliverable job scope
  • Isolation and blinding
  • Bundle extraction, installation &transportation
  • Our aerial extractors are late model Idrojet’s with a bundle weight capacity of  up to 100,000 lbs.
  • Our QC department works directly with our managers, clients and governing body to ensure all policies, procedures are the highest standards and reflect best practices of industry.

Heat Exchanger Bundle Transportation:

  • Warco’s process allows for the loading of bundles directly from our bundle pullers onto specifically designed bundle hauling trailer.
  • Our unique purpose-built bundle hauling trailer reduces the risk of injury and damage to customer assets and eliminates the risk of contaminant spills while in transit.

Heat Exchanger Bundle Cleaning:

Combining heat, chemistry, Ultrasonics, and high pressure in a controlled environment has provided our customers with significant cost saving, improved safety, reduced environmental liability and less waste. Returning heat transfer assets to full heat shed capacity allows for more efficient profitable operation. This is a game changer in heat transfer services

  • Warco’s facility layout is designed in the most efficient manner to process equipment safely and expediently.
  • Warco Industrial can help your business cut costs and downtime, our expertise in ultra-sonic and high-pressure cleaning ensure that your heat exchangers are cleaned to the highest levels possible increasing production and profitability..
  • Our exchanger program is backed by customer testimonials and their confidence in awarding us with long term maintenance agreements.
  • Our experience has allowed us to explore the use of new technology and implement best practices that have proven effective for our customers
  • The thicker polymer deposits become, the longer and more difficult they take to clear using traditional methods. The importance of regular, routine cleaning and maintenance is made more efficient using Ultrasonic cleaning methods.
  • Conventional high-pressure cleaning can use more than 20,000 Gal (76,000 litres) of water per exchanger and this wastewater requires treatment.
  • Performing this service in our shop reduces the cost of high-pressure cleaning alone significantly and lowers the risk of serious injury to personnel. Our process combines ultrasonic cleaning and reduces environmental disposal waste on site.
  • Warco offers a full array of cleaning methods that allows us to bring your process equipment back to the highest level of operational condition as quickly and as safely as possible.

Inspection Services:

  • Warco doesn’t have inspections service but provides space in its cleaning facility to execute inspections by the customers chosen service provider. This further helps in maintaining scheduled downtime.
  • Once inspections are completed bundles can be wrapped and transported or moved into the repair phase of the program.

Heat Exchanger Bundle Repairs:

  • Another benefit to off site cleaning is when repair work is identified resources are often readily available reducing downtime.
  • Warco is an ABSA registered heat exchanger repair specialist both in shop and field.
  • All inspections and repairs can be completed in our shop with safety and efficiency by our technicians and 3rd party contractors, or firm of your choice.

Ultrasonic Cleaning Technology

 Before Cleaning After Cleaning

Ultrasonic cleaning particularly with thickness mode ultrasonic transducers provides a much more efficient way to clean heat exchangers. Sound wave implosions, called cavitation separates the contaminant from the surface without damaging a component. Warco Industrial expertly applies patented technology to achieve unparalleled results.

  • Effectively removes all forms of hydrocarbon contamination and refinery-grade by-products compared to conventional cleaning processes.
  • Cleans components and equipment once deemed unrestorable.
  • Extending exchanger service and reducing cleaning cycles. Cleaner surfaces + Increased flow rates = Greater utilization.
  • Ultrasonic cleaning reduces risk of injury to personnel and equipment compared to high pressure cleaning method alone.
  • Superior cleaning efficiency of ultrasonics increases a facility’s uptime and reduces the total cost of ownership.
  • Our process and technology have proven to increase flowrates, reduce risk and harm to personnel, and eliminate environmental liability to our customers.

High Pressure Industrial Cleaning

 

  • When cleaning heat exchangers and other process equipment, it is important to remove all deposits and sediment, restoring assets to as close to like new condition as possible. Failure to remove all fouling will not deliver the benefits of this effort reducing the return on investment. Warco Industrial has the right people, processes, and tools to execute high pressure cleaning, whether it is on-site or off-site at our purpose-built facility. Our high-pressure operators receive industry recognized training and meet the requirement of Water Jet Technology Association (WJTA)

High Pressure Services

  • Heat exchanger tube cleaning
  • Heat exchanger shell cleaning
  • Line and drain cleaning
  • Flex lancing, as well as ridged lancing for cleaning fixed exchangers,
  • Aerial cooler cleaning
  • Evaporators
  • Drill pipe cleaning
  • Downhole screen cleaning
  • Our portable self-contained high-pressure units supply 10,000 psi to 40,000 psi at various GPM
