Air Cooled Heat Exchangers (ACHE)

Plant operators today face the pressures of increased productivity goals and ambitious profit targets that contrast today’s reality of rising energy costs, swelling operational expenses and diminishing operating budgets. Moreover, plant conditions can change very quickly, for instance, due to sudden increases in production requirements; or progressively perhaps, because of gradual wear and corrosion causing system degradation. The ELBRONS team of technical specialists literally wrote the book on equipment improvement and is proud of its unparalleled track record in providing highly effective and profitable solutions. We strive to consistently deliver the highest quality support through the combination of extensive hands-on experience, profound mechanical and materials engineering. Dedicated to delivering the highest quality support, ELBRONS  integrates extensive hands-on experience, mechanical and materials engineering knowledge with creative operating and business solutions to enable the following:

  • Improve equipment reliability and performance
  • Reduce energy consumption
  • Noise reduction
  • Vibration reduction and analysis
  • Inventory optimization
  • Increase Air Fin Cooler (AFC), Air Cooled Condenser (ACC) and/or Cooling Tower (CT) availability and output
  • Develop and enhance workforce knowledge
  • Improve the safety and environmental impact of operations

ELBRONS experts are trained to rigorously evaluate the total life cycle implications of every customer issue. First and foremost, we precisely assess each situation to quantify the current economic impact of the customer’s specific problem. From there, our team takes measurements and analyzes data to provide a foundation for improvement recommendations. And with a flexible, customizable commercial approach, ELBRONS contracts with customers to execute programs to successful conclusions.

We can fully assess the performance of your Air Cooled Heat Exchanger (ACHE) regardless of OEM make or type.

The service comprises a full onsite survey using the latest measuring techniques to determine the actual performance of Your Air Cooled Heat Exchanger (ACHE) comprehensively. After carrying out this survey, ELBRONS is in a position to evaluate the possible improvements on Your Air Cooled Heat Exchanger (ACHE) accurately. We are also a member of HTRI® and use their thermal simulation program to simulate actual Air Cooled Heat Exchanger (ACHE) performance versus design data (‘IS’ versus ‘SHOULD BE’).
