The advanced automatic tube cleaning system, ACCS comes installed with the recently manufactured heat exchangers and is used to keep the tubes clean without taking up a lot of time which eventually results in an enhanced performance of the same. It consists of specialized cleaning balls which at times inject at set intervals right into the cooling water flow. The balls then rub the tubes clean and happen to get trapped at the outlet of the heat exchanger where they are up for the next cleaning cycle.

Typical installations that consist of central chilled water plants which are installed in hospitals or universities can be made more efficient with the use of ACCS as then the man power would also reduce and the work would be done at a faster pace than ever before. The ball traps that you would find in the ACCS can be availed in different sizes shapes and sizes that would ensure about the flow configurations that can easily be integrated with the existing pipe runs and the space for installation. With the help of ACCS you would permanently be able to solve the fouling and scaling problem and can avoid frequent cleaning of the chiller condenser tubes again that might disrupt the chiller operation and make it clean completely.

The automatic tube cleaning system is essential to ensure about saving the energy , feasible tube cleaning for larger industries, power plants and commercial purposes. Over time, the traditional cleaning methods have proven to be quite inefficient as they require the use of harmful chemicals along with process shutdown. What make ACCS the best today, are reasons given below:

Improve Energy Efficiency by up to 25%

The ACCS prevents the heat exchanger tubes to accumulate mud, scale, or biological fouling. Earlier, these deposits used to get accumulated over time and would eventually degrade the performance of the heat exchanger. With the introduction of ACCS, many clients are able to gain around 10-15% of energy and can save up to as much as 25%.

Rapid Monetary Returns

Not just the ACCS results in the improvement of energy efficiency, the entire tube cleaning system tends to eliminate the manual task of condenser cleaning. Also, with this, the life expectancy of the heat transfer equipment also increases rapidly which results in low cost of investment as well. The ACCS can be of great value if you put it to use regularly and would work well for the longest possible time.

Bring About Top-Notch Hotel Energy Efficiency with ACCS

Ever wondered what those big noisy boys (usually found in the basement area) meant for? These are the units that could run up your overall electricity bill up to 70 percent when you are running a hotel. These are the chiller units and these are used for generating cold water (4 to 7 Degree Celsius) that gets circulated to the guests & function rooms in the hotel building. These chiller units are used for cooling down the spaces as per the required comforting temperature in any hotel building.

The cooling system of your hotel building is made out of the same component like any refrigerant. The refrigerant gets evaporated in the evaporator and heat gets absorbed. This evaporated heat then condenses in the condenser unit & helps in releasing heat from the hotel building & different units. The condenser unit needs to be cooled, probably brought about by water that keeps circulating over the cooling tower.

Over the passage of time, mineral deposits & pollutants from the surroundings tend to accumulate over the cooling tower. Gradually, these deposits tend to hamper the overall energy efficiency & performance of the condenser unit as more running hours are required to ensure compensation from the compressor. A wastage or an increase of around 20 to 40 percent of electricity per cooling unit (measured in refrigeration ton) turns out to be an easy reach.

Eventually, the progression of fouling & scaling tends to unacceptably lower the overall performance. As a result, the guests at your hotel start complaining because of the overall failing of the cooling system. Vast amounts energy gets wasted between such cleaning interruptions due to the activity of the compressor. As such, an advanced Automatic Tube Cleaning System – ACCS or an on-line tube cleaning system can help in easily lowering this energy wastage as it will aid in keeping the condenser tubes clean throughout during operation without any human intervention. Moreover, a high-tech ACCS unit also helps in keeping the overall energy consumption per cooling unit at its lowest possible rate –throughout the year.

With an average energy saving of around 20 percent on the overall electricity consumption by the compressor in your hotel unit, you can bring about effective cost minimization for ensuring top-notch operation. The total savings of the energy over the functional lifespan of the chiller unit in your hotel (around 10 years) will be equal to the investment needed for the next brand-new chiller unit.

Why Automatic Tube Cleaning is Essential For Shell and Tube Type Heat Exchangers?

For all we know, fouling in shell and tube heat exchangers is more or less, inevitable. But have you ever wondered what can be the impact of this fouling? Let’s take a look!

Once started, the fouling in the heat exchangers keeps increasing in thickness, eventually reducing the performance of heat transfer. This, in turn, does not allow a proper heat transfer and increases the running hours of Chillers. This can lead to a loss in business profitability since it leads to increased spending on energy bills as well as decreased revenues due to production loss.

So, what exactly is the solution for all of it?

The answer is rather simple – Automatic tube cleaning system or ACCS. No matter your business type – Chemical manufacturing, HVAC, refinery process or power plant, ACCS is one tried and tested method that will surely do the trick for you!

Wondering why the hoopla around ACCS? Well, let us introduce you to some of the benefits that this system offers.

It reduces energy bills by up to 20%.
Bring the heat exchangers to their original cooling capacity.
Diminishes production loss and downtime.
Extend the life of equipment by over 20%.
Reduce the cost of maintenance.
Increase the power output, especially in case of a power plant.

How fast the ACCS pays back for itself?

Well, yes! In fact, more often than not, the cost of the installing the system is recovered in a matter of few months or a year at max.

The system often pays for itself in less than 1 year. In some cases, its cost is recovered in few months by saving production loss on account of avoiding a compulsory shutdown.

So, how exactly does it work?

CET-Enviro’s Automatic Tube Cleaning System comprises of specialised balls which are infused into the cooling water flow at regular intervals. The balls travel through the tubes while cleaning them, and are then collected at the outlet. That being done, they are then prepared for the consequent cleaning cycle. Depending on the available space as well as pipe runs, ball traps can be availed in a wide range of shapes as well as flow configurations.

What makes CET-Enviro ACCS worth your while?

To begin with, you can rest assured that you won’t need to instigate process shutdowns. In addition, with CET-Enviro ACCS your plant will be free from the use of any chemicals for the cleaning process, thus relieving you from any work related to the disposal of such chemicals. Then again, we offer you a guarantee for zero lost balls, thus ensuring that you enjoy tremendous value for your money.

Now that you’re aware of some of the impressive benefits of ACCS, we are more than sure that you will soon deploy the same for the maintenance of your shell and tube type heat exchangers.
