Flushing

Achieving Turbulent Flow for Particulate and Residual Removal

Flushing is a hydrodynamic cleaning process used to remove particulates, installation debris, corrosion products, and chemical residues from process piping and mechanical systems. AEKS applies high-velocity water flushing and chemical flushing to reach Reynolds numbers that ensure turbulent flow and effective cleaning action.

Key flushing capabilities include:

• High-velocity pump skid
• Temporary loop setup to bypass sensitive equipment or reach dead-ends
• Flow instrumentation for real-time velocity and pressure monitoring
• Inline filtration to capture dislodged debris
• Conductivity, turbidity, and particle count monitoring to define flushing end-points

We flush:

• HVAC chilled water and heating systems
• Clean utility lines (WFI, PW, CS, CIP loops)
• Fire suppression systems
• High-purity and solvent pipelines

Protocols follow international standars and internal acceptance criteria based on system specifications or client-defined requirements, with customized method statement and risk assessment (RAMS)
