HEAT EXCHANGER MAINTENANCE
Tube Bundle Handling for Refinery & Petrochemical Projects
A tube bundle extractor, also commonly called a bundle puller, is used to support the controlled removal and installation of removable tube bundles from shell-and-tube heat exchangers. Jingchen provides both diesel tube bundle extractors and electric tube bundle extractors for refinery, petrochemical, power and industrial maintenance environments.
Equipment selection should not be based on pulling force alone. Bundle weight, bundle length, bundle diameter, exchanger layout, working space, access route, available power and the planned maintenance sequence all affect the practical configuration. For projects that use the equipment only occasionally, our tube bundle extractor rental page provides another option; for existing equipment, see maintenance and repair.
