What We Do
Ring Heat Exchanger offers a full-service for charge air coolers and provides the following services:
Professional Cleaning
We offer both chemical and high-pressure professional cleaning services. We use these techniques to eliminate dirt, scale, rust and other contaminants which would otherwise affect the efficiency of your charge air cooler. We focus on both internal and external cleaning and flushing which will leave your charge air cooler looking and performing as good as new.
Leak Repairs
Charge air coolers can leak air and detecting pin-hole leaks is difficult. With the tools, equipment and test tanks we have on-site, our experienced team makes quick work of identifying leaks that are present and proposing cost-effective repair solutions. We ensure we will catch all leaks as we recognize the loss of power and fuel mileage that can result from these leakages is important to our customers.
To resolve this issue and return the CAC core to operate at optimum efficiency, we can repair leaks at the tube or replace the CAC core with a new module. This service always includes an overall professional cleaning and refinishing service to ensure that the finished product both looks and operates as close to new as is reasonable.
Re-coring
Re-coring is an effective refurbishment technique that will add years of service to your charge air cooler. Our team is well-equipped to carry out re-coring service for charge air coolers in addition to the more minor repairs discussed above. This service always includes an overall Professional Cleaning and Refinishing Service to ensure that the finished product both looks and operates as close to new as is reasonable.
Full Replacement
Even if your CAC is beyond repair, we will help you with the supply of a new replacement. We will use your existing parts to identify a direct replacement, create a custom designed unit or propose a similar charge air cooler that will get your equipment working again.
