Chiller descaler
Chiller Descaler
Why descale your chiller?
Chillers, condensers and even cooling towers require maintenance due to the harsh mineral deposits such as calcium, lime, mud and rust that rob heat transfer efficiency. For instance, most major manufacturers of chiller equipment generally design chillers to operate with a maximum "thermal resistance" or "fouling factor" of 0.0005 inches of buildup. As a result, with only 0.0360 inches (about 1/32'') of deposit corresponds to an increase in energy costs of over 30%! Now ask yourself, "Can I afford not to do a RYDLYME cleaning on the chiller tower"?
How to use RYDLYME descaler to descale your equipment:
When isolating and cleaning the barrel on a tube chiller or cooling tower, RYDLYME will circulate through the water side and completely dissolve the scale in to a liquid suspension (like sugar in coffee), easily cleaning the hard to reach areas such as tube enhancements. Typically, cleanings can be accomplished in 4-6 hours depending on the severity of scale and volume of the barrel. RYDLYME can even be circulated via cooling tower to eliminate the need to shutdown the system! Preventative maintenance cleanings with RYDLYME will ensure optimal efficiency, bringing approach temperatures and pressures down to "as designed" specifications AND will help extend the life of the equipment.
