Optimize your gasketed plate heat exchanger for the future

A gasketed plate heat exchanger is a stationary piece of equipment without any moving parts, but they still require routine maintenance to optimize performance - just like any other critical process equipment in your production facility. However, heat exchanger maintenance intervals can vary widely, depending on various factors, such as: media, temperature and pressure. Which is why it is important to assess the performance of your gasketed plate heat exchanger.

Alfa Laval Visual Condition Assessment will give you a quick overview of the state of your gasketed plate heat exchangers. You will gain insights about the actual condition of your equipment its detailed mechanical condition, need of repair and remaining gasket lifetime prediction. 

We will also provide you with a report, containing:

• Unit data including any changes and adaptations
• Pictures and description of problem areas 
• Thermal image of your unit with an interpretation

• Our summarized findings and recommendations 

With a Visual Condition Assessment we work closely with you to identify and resolve any issues that require attention. Using a thermal imaging camera enables us to evaluate the thermal performance and make recommendations to maintain your heat exchangers in top operating condition based on our findings and analysis. With our recommendations you can plan the maintenance at your convenience and Alfa Laval can give safety advice on the spot.
