Air-Cooled Chiller Heat Exchanger Tube Replacement – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we provide specialized heat exchanger tube replacement services for air-cooled chillers, ensuring restored performance, improved energy efficiency, and extended equipment lifespan. The heat exchanger tubes in air-cooled chillers play a critical role in transferring heat between refrigerant and air. When these tubes become corroded, fouled, or damaged, they reduce system effectiveness and can lead to costly failures. Our experienced team delivers precise, efficient tube replacement to get your chiller operating at its best.

When to Replace Heat Exchanger Tubes

• Noticeable drop in cooling efficiency or heat transfer

• Visible tube corrosion, pitting, or leaks

• Tube blockages from scale, sludge, or debris buildup

• Cracks, pinholes, or structural damage from thermal cycling or pressure stress

• Frequent refrigerant leaks and system imbalance

Our Heat Exchanger Tube Replacement Services Include

Inspection & Diagnosis

We perform a thorough assessment of your heat exchanger, including visual checks, pressure testing, thermal imaging, and leak detection to pinpoint damaged or underperforming tubes.

Tube Removal & Coil Preparation

Damaged tubes are carefully extracted from the heat exchanger coil without disturbing the surrounding structure. The coil assembly is then cleaned to remove any residual contamination or corrosion.

Custom Tube Fabrication & Installation

We supply and install high-quality copper or aluminum replacement tubes, matched to original specifications or upgraded for improved corrosion resistance. Tubes are cut, shaped, and fitted with precision.

Brazing & Leak Sealing

New tubes are sealed using high-strength brazing or welding techniques to ensure long-lasting, leak-proof connections capable of withstanding high pressure and temperature cycles.

System Testing & Recommissioning

After installation, we carry out full leak testing, refrigerant charging, and performance validation to ensure the heat exchanger is functioning efficiently and reliably.
