Introduction to the operation and maintenance of plate heat exchangers


1. First, fill the entire system with treated softened water.
2. The heat source connected to the plate heat exchanger unit, the outdoor heating network, and the heating project must be inspected and accepted after construction and installation. The entire system must be unobstructed and leak-free before the unit can start operation.
3. Before starting the plate heat exchanger unit, all valves should be closed. First, fully open the return water valve, start the circulation pump, and then gradually open the outlet valve and water supply valve. At this time, pay attention to whether the starting current exceeds the rated value. Gradually open the heat source inlet valve and outlet valve when the system becomes stable.
4. After the system reaches stable operation, regularly record various temperature, pressure, and flow rate values.
5. When stopping operation, first close the heat source inlet valve, stop the circulation pump five minutes later, and close the water supply valve.
7. During winter shutdown, it is necessary to close all interface valves and drain the water.
8. During normal operation of the unit, regular maintenance and cleaning should be carried out to check whether the water pump is operating normally.
9. Regularly or irregularly lubricate the rotating parts of various connecting valves of the plate heat exchanger unit.
10. Regularly wipe off dirt from the surface, valves, and equipment surfaces, and repaint the peeling parts of the equipment.
11. Regularly remove any dirt that may be present in the Y-type filters at various inlets of the equipment.
12. Remove any rust and dirt that may accumulate inside the descaling device in front of the equipment's water inlet.
13. Regularly inspect or replace various valves connected to the unit.
14. Regularly inspect the unit's surface and safety valve. The surface indication is correct, the safety valve opens sensitively, and the action is reliable. Ensure the safe operation of the equipment.
