Faqs:
Is the A179 U-tube suitable for corrosive environments?
Not recommended. The A179 is made of mild steel with limited corrosion resistance and is suitable for non-corrosive environments like fresh water or steam. For corrosive environments, stainless steel or copper alloys are recommended.
How to clean A179 U-type heat exchange tube?
Chemical cleaning with acid or alkaline agents can dissolve scale, followed by thorough rinsing. Mechanical cleaning with scrubs or high-pressure water guns is also effective. Regular maintenance is advised to prevent scaling.
How long is the life of A179 U-type heat exchange tube?
With proper maintenance, the A179 U-tube can last over 10 years. Life may be shorter in corrosive or high-temperature environments.
Can I customize the size of A179 U-type heat exchange tube?
Yes. The A179 U-tube can be customized in outer diameter (6 mm to 50.8 mm), wall thickness (0.5 mm to 15 mm), length, and bending radius to meet specific design requirements.
