Process flushing
Contamination of Oil Systems: A Critical Issue
Welding slag, dirt, debris, and water can easily contaminate the interior of tubes and pipelines in hydraulic, lubrication, and fuel oil systems. This contamination can lead to system failure, costly downtime, and premature component wear.
Solution: High-Speed Flushing
GGS utilizes high-speed flushing equipment to generate a “turbulent flow” that effectively removes any contamination from the piping. This method meets or exceeds the stringent cleanliness specifications set by leading manufacturers.
The Importance of Clean Piping
Moisture, particle contamination, and debris can clog the pipelines and feed lines of critical fuel systems, leading to power loss, reduced performance, and system failure.
Flush and Maintenance for Optimal Performance
To ensure the performance and reliability of fuel systems, GGS offers a high-speed purging service. This method is similar to oil flushing and is essential for backup diesel generators and large diesel engines.
Cleaning of Flowlines and Tanks
Our team of experienced technicians specializes in cleaning industrial water and oil tanks of all sizes. We use advanced techniques and biodegradable products to ensure complete removal of contaminants, including harmful bacteria.
GGS takes care of everything, from planning the cleaning to obtaining the necessary permits. We also conduct a final inspection of the tank and provide you with a comprehensive cleaning report.
Inerting and Purging
Inerting involves using an inert gas, such as nitrogen, to reduce or prevent undesirable chemical reactions with oxygen. Purging, on the other hand, involves introducing an inert gas to displace atmospheric gases and create an inert atmosphere.
These two techniques are employed to protect products sensitive to oxidation, corrosion, or other undesirable chemical reactions. They are utilized in various fields, including the chemical, petroleum, and gas industries, as well as pharmaceuticals and food.
Seal Testing
The traditional leak detection technique – the pressure drop method – has significant limitations. With this method, the container is first filled with air at a predetermined pressure, sealed, and then allowed to stabilize for 30 seconds to 10 minutes. The pressure is then measured again, and if it decreases, it indicates that some of the air has escaped. The size of the pressure drop is correlated with the size of the defect, making it possible to detect holes approximately 250 to 500 μm in size.
