They also include alloys for high-temperature service. STOP THROWING YOUR MONEY DOWN THE TUBES! The Shield/Seal™, besides repaiing tube-end erosionicorrosion, will restore tube-to-tubesheot hole integrity, permit proper mechanical tube cleaning and in many cases restore leaking, plugged tubes to full operation. “Shields” meet the strict regulations ofthe nuclear power industry and the United States Navy ‘Once expanded ~ either mechanically, hydraulically or a hybrid of the two — the Shields then become integral with the parent tubes. Because material and installation are only a fraction of the cost, this restoration technique saves precious repair dollars versus retubing or bundle replacement. The thin-wall construction, expansion and I.D. chamfer eliminate the possibility of end-step erosion which has been historically associated with other tube inserts. Why replace the entire ube when only the first few inches need repair?

Since 1976, CTI has installed over 6 milion Shields throughout the world. From condensers to air coolers to HP feedwater heaters, CT! has the answers that will SAVE YOU MONEY.CTI FULL LENGTH TUBE LINERS ™ For those units that suffer from full-length erosion/corrosion, pitting and/or an overage of plugged tubes. The CTI Full Length Tube Liner™ may be a cost-effective solution to keep your exchanger running at maximum ¢ capacity. “Liners” (thin-walled tubes) are hydraulically expanded into existing tubes, resulting in a full restoration.

CTI has been of service to the electric utility, commercial marine, U.S. Navy, petroleum refining, chemicals/petrochemicals production, desalination, paper mill and fertilizer industries in over 45 countries throughout the world. Paco eit In 1976, CTI developed a tube repair technique that today is recognized as the most widely used cost-effective system in the world. The thin-walled tube insert — the CTI SHIELD/SEAL™ — propelled our success in offering cost-effective solu- tions for equipment life extension. The information herein describes our turnkey “restoration systems”, which also include Full Length Tube Liners™, inspec- tions, retubing, coatings and cleaning. CTI-NEW SOLUTIONS TO OLD PROBLEMS.Don’t take our word for it...... “The first condenser which was sleeved was intended to be a short term five (5) year fix. These same tubes are still in service after 22 years with no problems” Bill Stroman San Diego Gas & Electric *...Il took four weeks to install all the inserts (Shield/Seals”) compared with an estimated 240 weeks to partially retube 120 units. The cost comparison for partial retubing of the exchangers versus the actual cost for using inserts was dramatic.” Dave Kaiser The Arabian Sun (ARAMCO) “After several years of technical research and numerous market surveys we have established that there are only two means by which to repair condenser tubes reliably. The first method is to replace the tubes. The alternate method of Shield/Seal"tepair has proven to be the most effective and technologically sound means of not only repairing, but also significantly extending the service life of condensers.” HEADQUARTERS CTI Industries, Inc. 283 Indian River Road Orange, CT 06477 USA Phone: 203-795-0070 Fax: 203-795-7061 Email: ctius@cti-ind.com Website: www.cti-ind.com EUROPE/ASIA CTI (G.B) Limited 4 Honister Dr. Kendal, Cumbria LA9-7PD, UK Phone: 44-1539-738-040 Fax: 44-1539-738-202 Email: kcox@cti-ind.com J.J.
