6.3.2 Opening procedure

1

Shut down the heat exchanger.

2

Close the valves and isolate the heat
exchanger from the rest of the system.

3

Drain the heat exchanger.

NOTE

Avoid vacuum in the heat exchanger by
opening vent valves.

4

Remove the protection sheets, if any.

5

Dismantle pipes from the pressure plate and
the connection plate(s) so that the pressure
plate and the connection plate(s) are free to
move along the carrying bar.

6

Inspect the sliding surfaces of the carrying
bar and wipe clean and grease.
