SSE Service Package for Plate and Frame Heat Exchangers
Separator Spares & Equipment, LLC offers a total plate heat exchanger service package. Whether it is replacement gaskets, reconditioned plates in either Stainless Steel or Titanium, new or reconditioned frames or just a service.

- GEA
- SWEP
- SONDEX
- Other Brands Available upon Request
Our service package consists of the following steps:
Frame Handling
Ship your entire heat exchanger assembly to SSE. Plates will be removed, cleaned, tested and regasketed. The frame and other components can also be reconditioned. After reassembly, the unit will be hydro-tested. The completed unit can be quickly reinstalled and put into service with the assurance of leak-free operation.
Cleaning
Complete non-abrasive cleaning through a series of chemical washings removes product buildup and water deposits and restores your plates back to like-new efficiency.
Dye Penetrant Testing
Every plate is tested with our dye penetrant system to ensure there are no cracks or pinholes. Early detection of plate defects eliminates cross-contamination concerns and saves you costly down-time later.
Regasketing
The proper adhesives are selected for your gasket and service conditions. Each gasket is cleaned and the plate groove is prepared just prior to bonding. Oven curing of the adhesives in tightened frames provides a strong and secure bond. Adhesive curing with the gasket compressed in the plate groove ensures trouble-free service.
