Under pressure?

Hydroblasting (high pressure cleaning) damages the fragile cooling fins and compacts dirt and debris into the center of the cooling unit, thus significantly reducing cooling efficiency.

FINFOAM uses a low pressure cleaning method which gently soaks away dirt and debris throughout the entire heat exchanger unit.

The Benefits

Are You Satisfied With Your Rate of Exchange?

Dirty fin fans increase production costs. Heat exchanger units cooling at a slower rate have a dramatic effect on your production capability and consequently, on your company’s bottom line. Our unique cleaning process returns your equipment to peak performance and allows you to produce at optimal levels.

We’ve redefined methods specified by supervisors and engineers for externally cleaning heat exchanger coils. FINFOAM's cleaning method is safer, more efficient and more cost effective than all other cleaning services available.

Testimonials

"We had a project to clean all the Malongo Aerial Cooler on Fox, Delta, Hotel and Terminal. We also most recently cleaned them on Takula ALP. We used a company from Prairieville Louisiana called Global Process Diagnostics Inc. alternatively (FINFOAM) Results were good. This depended upon the soak time to the cleaning agent and availability of the fans. Overall we got a 10 to 25 degree F delta T increase. Some areas experience a larger delta T increase as the more dirt and crude removed, the higher the delta T increase. Overall, Operations was quite satisfied with the cleaning and want to make it a once every two year event. One of the problems we had as clean water offshore for the mixture and rinsing. You should not have that problem there. The chemical used is a bio-degradable product and when finished cleaning can be drained into the storm water drain system. When I was there, I had the fin fan maintenance and I would recommend doing this there. I think with the sand and dust situation you have, your results would be more substantial. Call me if you have any questions but below is the contact information if you want to discuss with the Contractor in more detail. "

Major Refiner - Angloa Africa

Case Study - Coker Unit

Eight exchangers with 2 fans each were severely plugged with coke fines and limiting the entire refinery in the southeast. Taking about 1 1/2 hrs per fan FINFOAM finished the job in 2 days and gave operations an additional 25 degrees on their outlet. Previous cleaning attempts by other companies had routinely taken a week and improvements were minimal.
