Cross-Bar cooler inspection

Inspection during
operation and standstill

Key benefits An inspection by FLSmidth ser-

- Optimised hydraulic system
performance
- Electronic data logging and
evaluation of both operation
and standstill conditions
- Optimal cooler availability
- Uninterrupted production
- Makes maintenance costs
more predictable
- Professional evaluation
and assistance for your
maintenance team
vice specialists who have indepth
knowledge of the SFTM Cross-Bar
cooler, the Multi-MovableTM Cross-Bar
cooler and the Cross-Bar cooler is
your best guarantee for ensuring
optimal, trouble-free operation. These
coolers must work flawlessly with
the kiln system in order to maintain
clinker production, reduce downtime
and minimise production costs.
Performing an external and internal
inspection during standstill is the best
way to form an accurate picture of the
coolers overall condition. This will allow
us to identify parts that need to be
replaced and detect potential threats
before they become a problem, such
as worn out moving parts and leaks
in hydraulic systems.
Obtaining data
Data for cooler evaluation is collected
during operation and standstill. This
gives our specialists an accurate idea
of potential problem areas, as well
as important information for post-
inspection analysis and evaluation.
FLSmidth cooler specialists check every
part of the cooler, including:
- Hydraulic systems
- Operational parameters
- Material and oil leaks
- Wear
- Hammer crusher/
heavy duty roll breaker
- Vibrations
- Air blaster system
- Cooler fans

Training session
In addition to the cooler
inspection, we also offer a
two-day training session for
predictive maintenance on
the cooler, including trouble-
shooting and operation of
the hydraulic system.

The session consists of

theoretical as well as
practical training.

Inspection
of cooler
inlet
During the inspection the cooler inlet is
checked for heat damages as well as the
air blaster system and mechanical flow
regulators are examined. Our inspection
gives you all information necessary to
conduct full maintenance and repairs
according to FLSmidth recommendations.
Final report
When inspections of cooler components
have been carried out, all data collected
during the inspection are evaluated
and our specialists will provide a final
evaluation and analysis report as well
as recommendations for repairs, spare
parts and adjustments.
The report will include suggestions
for optimisations to obtain better
performance and be an essential
document to assist your maintenance
department plan future maintenance
activities, such as ensuring that the right
spare parts are available and most
importantly avoiding unscheduled,
costly shutdowns.
