Case Study: a large mining company averts downtime with Valin and Eaton duplex basket strainers

a large mining company averts costly downtime with Valin Corporation and Eaton 950B Duplex Basket Strainers

A project engineer from a large mining company faced a critical challenge with debris clogging the cooling water supply lines for sulfuric acid heat exchangers. This blockage risked costly unscheduled downtime and potential equipment failure for the major copper, gold, and molybdenum producer. They contacted Valin Corporation for a solution involving industrial strainers.

Valin partnered with Eaton to implement Eaton 950B Duplex Basket Strainers. This solution allowed for continuous operation during maintenance, practically eliminating related downtime and protecting downstream equipment. Valin's solution helped the mining company avert downtime, prolong the life of their heat exchangers, and achieve significant cost savings.
