UBC Baton Rouge: Chemicals Replaced, 3x Longer Intervals

The Challenges

• FWG opened roughly once per month
• Cleaning typically took around 24 hours
• Hard scale deposits held plates together
• Plate removal required significant force

The Solution

One HM100 unit was fitted to the FWG inlet pipe about 1 metre before the heat exchanger during dry dock at Constanta, Romania, in November 2015. The signal disrupts the conditions that bond scale to surfaces, replacing chemical dosing and extending cleaning intervals.
