KSS machining centers
Cleaning of coolant lines with supply lines (flow) to the machining centers at a manufacturer of diesel engines
The customer order
Task
- Cleaning of the pipelines with the Comprex® process; with low wastewater volume and time window specified by the client
- Remove deposits and metal abrasion from the system's supply lines (malfunctions due to clogged filters on the machining centers).
- Remove "Microbiology" from the system
- Restore operational safety and performance
Technical data
- Piping system DN 500, DN 350, DN 150, DN 125 and DN 50
- issued over several levels in the plant
- Supply lines to approx. 20 machining centers
Cleaning with the Comprex® process
Implementation
- mechanical cleaning with compressed, treated air from Comprex® unit
- Cleaning with 2 synchronous Comprex® units
- Access to the system via adapter connections
- Use of filtered emulsion as rinsing medium
- Recycling and recirculation of the rinsing emulsion by means of rented additional technology to minimize waste water
- 9 technicians, 3-shift operation (non-stop), approx. 60 hrs.
- On-site meetings necessary to determine alterations, schedule, etc.
Result of Comprex® cleaning
Advantages of regular Comprex® cleaning
Deposits, metal abrasion and coarse particles mobilized and removed from the system
Performance of the pipelines restored
System ready for filling with fresh KSS
No further interruptions of operation due to clogged filters to be expected
