Mechanical Systems Hazardous Molds & Fungi Veterinary Services NASCAR Pictures Mechanical Systems Inspection Services Applications: Conditions Detected: Potential Problems: Refrigeration HVAC Systems Electrical, air leaks, energy loss, heat exchanger efficiency, clogged condenser/heat exchanger tubes. Cooling/hot water/steam leaks, pumps, air locks. Inefficient operation, wasted energy, shut down. Pumps/Compressors Fans/Blowers High compressor discharge temperature, over heated bearings. High oil temperature, broken or defective valve. Loss of bearings, damage to shaft and internal parts with possible damage to driving object. Kilns Refractory break down, high bearing temperature, high gear temperature. Wasted energy, over heating and warping of shell, loss of bearings, gears or both. Repairs; $5,000-$100,000 Replacement; $1,000,000.00. Process Fired Furnace Tubes, Burners, Refractory/Insulation Flame impingement, coke build-up on internal tube surface, faulty burners. Wasted energy, process inefficiencies, low production capacity, tubes over heating and warping or complete failure, which could cause explosion with tube replacement or furnace replacement. Safety considerations. Boiler/Steam Systems Inspection Services   Applications: Conditions Detected: Potential Problems: Boilers/Furnaces Refractory/Insulation breakdown, blocked cast. Iron deposits/scale buildup. Hot gas leaks, furnace tube blockages, internal scale buildup, and safety valve leakage. Wasted energy, cracked CI section. Replacement unit $ 1,200.00-$5,000.00; Replace boiler $8,000.00-$30,000.00, furnace tube and/or boiler replacement. Safety considerations. Steam Traps Trap malfunction, wrong size trap. Trap failed to open, loss of steam. Back up from malfunctioning trap down stream. Wasted energy-annual energy cost for one failed trap up to $30,000.00, depending on size of discharge line, steam pressure, cost of steam. Trap failed to close-carry over of water, air, and non-condensable gases to equipment; Repairs $100.00 - $50,000.00
