Oil Cooler Application with HydroFLOW®
HydroFLOW® enhances the efficiency of oil cooling systems by treating limescale and minimising biofilm buildup, improving heat transfer, and reducing maintenance requirements. It helps maintain optimal cooling performance, extends equipment lifespan, and minimises downtime in industrial applications.
Optimising Oil Coolers with HydroFLOW®
Oil coolers play a critical role in heat dissipation for industrial machinery, power plants, and marine applications. The high temperatures involved make these systems even more prone to limescale accumulation than water-to-water heat exchangers, which reduces cooling efficiency and increase maintenance costs.
HydroFLOW® offers an innovative, non-chemical solution to protect oil coolers from scaling and biofouling. By ensuring clean heat exchanger surfaces and improving water quality, HydroFLOW® helps maintain consistent cooling performance, lower energy consumption, and extend equipment longevity.

HydroFLOW® Solutions for Oil Coolers: Cleaner Performance, Reliable Cooling, and Minimised Fouling

Treats Limescale & Fouling in Heat Exchangers
Limescale deposits form on oil cooler heat exchangers, reducing heat transfer efficiency and forcing cooling systems to work harder. HydroFLOW® treats mineral buildup by disrupting crystallisation, ensuring that calcium and magnesium remain in suspension instead of forming hard deposits.
Treats scaling on oil cooler surfaces
Ensures consistent heat transfer efficiency
Reduces the need for chemical cleaning and maintenance
Lowers energy consumption and operating costs
Enhances Equipment Longevity & Performance
Maintaining clean and efficient cooling surfaces is essential for the longevity of oil coolers in industrial and marine environments. HydroFLOW® protects cooling systems from scale-related wear and tear, reducing the likelihood of overheating and system failures.
Extends the operational lifespan of oil coolers and heat exchangers
Improves cooling consistency for critical machinery
Reduces unplanned maintenance and costly downtime
Supports sustainable, chemical-free water treatment solutions
