TEALON™ TF1580 CASE HISTORY

This equipment often suffers internal leakage and clogging of its channels due to the fragmentation of the original gasket, affecting its thermal performance. A skived PTFE gasket presents a fragile behavior when compressed by the ends of the heat exchanger. Steam injection was a frequent practice to maintain the required level of steam necessary for the equipment operation, resulting in a typical operational cost of $225,000.00 every 6 months.
