5.5 CONDENSER MANAGEMENT AND RheoVac TRAINING
Intek conducts Condenser Operations and Management workshops to educate professionals on
RheoVac and Rheotherm instrumentation as well as condenser operations and theory. During
these workshops, degraded condenser performance is discussed including root cause analysis for
poor performance and condensate chemistry issues. Solutions are presented and discussed.
Several training tools and reference material can be found on our website,
www.MyCondenser.com . Tutorials can be found in the help menu, included are presentations on
condenser theory, instrumentation, case studies, and condenser services provided by Intek.
Posted case studies show events and conditions captured by the RheoVac condenser monitor and
how the instrument helped troubleshoot or solve upset conditions. Case studies include
information on pump issues, air in-leakage events, steam jet air ejector problems, and general
condenser performance troubleshooting. Case studies captured by the Rheotherm Circulating
Water Flow and Fouling Meter are also presented and discussed in the website. Macrofouling,
thermal stratification, circulating water pump degradation, and identification of condenser design
deficiencies are highlighted.
