COMMON TYPES OF EQUIPMENT
DAMAGE
• Gasket destruction > One fluid circulated at a
high temperature (always circulate the cold fluid
FIRST and the hot fluid LAST).
• Gasket destruction > Sudden changes in
pressure or temperature (monitor the control).
• Gasket destruction > Overrun of operating
conditions (check the operating parameters).
• Plate destruction > Corrosion or erosion (check
the type and speed of the fluids being circulated;
install filters).
• Plate destruction > Overpressure (check the
pressure of the fluids; watch out for sudden or
frequent changes in pressure or temperature).
• Plate destruction > The heat exchanger has
frozen (either make sure that the room temperature
does not drop below 0°C while the system is not in
use or drain the circuits).
• Leaks > The tightening dimension is wrong
(check the tightness of the plate pack).
• Leaks > The frame or a number of plates are
dented (contact Atlantic ).

1.5 - Receiving the unit
• Upon delivery, check the contents for missing or
damaged items. Note any missing or damaged
items on the delivery slip. Inform Atlantic I of said
damaged or missing items by registered letter
within three days of delivery and forward
a copy to Atlantic .
• The front of each heat exchanger is fitted with a
nameplate listing a serial number. Please state this
number in all correspondence.
1.6 - Handling
• The handling and unloading equipment is for the
account of the recipient.
• Follow the rigging instructions (Figures 1a, 1b
and 2).
• Use web slings (no metal chains). Insert them in
the designated notches on the head and follower.
• The unit's weight is stated on the delivery slip
and the shipping note.
• When moving and handling the heat exchanger,
make sure that it is properly supported and
secured as its high centre of gravity may cause it to
tip over easily.
• Never lift the unit by its guide rails, compression
bolts or pipes, as doing so can cause them to
bend.
• Shield the plates from impacts as they could
cause irreparable leaks.
