Capillary Pipe Repair On A Nilfisk Delta Booster For An Abattoir In Telford
What they needed
We were called out to repair a Nilfisk Delta Booster multi-pump system at an abattoir in Telford. The system had begun experiencing issues due to corrosion on the capillary pipes connected to the pressure manifold.
Problem / Requirement
- Machine type: Nilfisk Delta Booster multi-pump system.
- Issue: Several capillary pipes on the pressure manifold had become heavily corroded.
- Risk: The corrosion was causing weakening of the pipes and potential leaks within the pressure monitoring system.
- Environment: The machine operates from a plant room in an abattoir
If left unattended, the damaged pipes could lead to pressure control faults or leaks within the system.
Our Solution
- Removed the corroded capillary pipes from the manifold assembly.
- Fabricated, bent into shape, and installed new replacement capillary pipes.
- Ensured all fittings were correctly sealed and secured.
- Checked the manifold system for leaks and confirmed correct operation.
The Result
- The Delta Booster system is now operating reliably again with new corrosion-free capillary pipes installed.
- The pressure monitoring system is working correctly with no leaks present.
- Replacing the damaged pipework has improved the reliability of the system in a demanding washdown environment
