In addition to repair, our Service Center heat exchanger experts can provide your operations and maintenance teams with training and advice toward attaining maximum possible performance and uptime.

Training services include:

  • Resolution of operational issues
  • Top to bottom maintenance procedures

Energy Consumption Auditing

If you suspect that your energy efficiency and thermal process control are not what they should be, a Tranter Service Center team can pinpoint the causes with an on-site Heat Exchanger Audit.

Here is what they do:

  • Collect or measure operating data for each of your heat exchangers
  • Compare this with your design process data
  • Note any variances
  • Investigate causes of variances, ranging from capacity/throughput changes, control issues, misapplied exchangers to maintenance needs
  • Recommend remedies to bring performance to best practices efficiency and control

If exchanger misapplication or maintenance needs are indicated as causes, the Tranter team will provide you with an alternate exchanger configuration that will resolve the issue, or a cost-efficient PM Service Program to address maintenance issues.

Service Centers are backed by Tranter worldwide engineering resources, including design, applications and materials engineering.
Technical specialists at Tranter Service Centers have the experience and know-how to refurbish all brands of plate heat exchangers in our shops or in your facility.
