Heat Exchanger Fouling and Cleaning
Plate heat exchangers foul over time depending on the system and fluids in service. Professional cleaning restores heat-transfer performance. Fouling often increases differential pressure and reduces efficiency, and is commonly seen as sediment buildup, calcification, or oil and grease contamination.

Oil and Grease Fouling
Possible problems in plate heat exchangers
Plate heat exchangers get dirty over time. Fouling raises differential pressure and reduces heat transfer. Professional cleaning restores former performance.
- Performance decrease due to calcification
- Clogging from sediment and dirt in the installation
- Excessive pressure losses due to clogging
- Reduction of heat transfer due to fouling
- Gasket wear and loss of sealing properties
- Plate deformation due to corrosion
