Air-Cooled Chiller System Tube Overhaul – EKG M&E Sdn Bhd

At EKG M&E Sdn Bhd, we provide comprehensive air-cooled chiller system tube overhaul services designed to restore your chiller’s performance, efficiency, and reliability. Over time, the tubes in evaporators and condensers can become fouled, corroded, blocked, or damaged, resulting in reduced heat transfer and higher energy costs. Our complete tube overhaul service addresses these issues head-on with a tailored, end-to-end solution.

What Is a Chiller Tube Overhaul?

A system tube overhaul involves the inspection, cleaning, repair, and replacement of critical heat exchanger tubes in your air-cooled chiller. It is a cost-effective alternative to full unit replacement and is ideal for facilities experiencing:

• Frequent refrigerant leaks or pressure issues

• Reduced cooling output and poor temperature control

• Increased energy consumption

• Scaling, pitting, or internal tube corrosion

• Aging systems in need of rejuvenation without full replacement

Our Tube Overhaul Process

System Inspection and Tube Assessment

• Complete diagnostic of tube conditions using thermal imaging, pressure testing, and visual inspection

• Identification of fouled, leaking, or structurally compromised tubes

Tube Cleaning and Fouling Removal

• Mechanical brushing or chemical descaling to remove buildup

• Cleaning of both internal and external tube surfaces to restore efficient heat transfer

Tube Repair and Replacement

• Brazing, plugging, or TIG welding for localized damage

• Full replacement of corroded or cracked tubes using high-grade copper, aluminum, or stainless steel

• Custom fabrication for non-standard or aged systems

Leak Testing and Sealing

• Comprehensive leak checks and pressure testing post-repair or replacement

• Sealing of all tube joints for leak-free, long-lasting performance

System Recharging and Recommissioning

• Refrigerant charging, temperature calibration, and full functional testing

• Verification of heat exchange efficiency and system pressure stability
