Retrofit/Upgrades

The Fountain of Youth for Water Purification Equipment.

The critical nature of producing water demands that your plant always run at its optimal capabilities. A task that gets more and more difficult as it ages. Normal wear and tear, along with technological advancements, have lead companies to rely on MECO for our retrofit and upgrade services.

New Life for Older Equipment.

MECO extends the life of distillers and other water treatment systems by offering control system upgrades and refurbishments. The benefits of this service include:

  • An extension of the distiller's life, which reduces the capital outlay for new equipment.
  • Improved operation of the plant through more accurate operating control, higher equipment reliability and reduced maintence.
  • An updated system to meet higher quality assurance and validation standards.

Consistency With Controls.

MECO offers the upgrades below. Other upgrades are available upon request. To order these upgrades or request a quote, please contact MECO MASTERsupport™, at 1-800-421-1798 or online at the MASTERsupport™ Online Service Center.
 


The MECO Lube Lock Seal System (LLSS) greatly reduces the chance of leakage. It has been engineered to utilize straight thread O-ring connections on all joints instead tapered pipe thread connections. The use of replaceable O-Rings for sealing rather than the interference and challenges of formed threads provides a much tighter, more reliable, maintenance-free seal.

Systems can be disassembled and reassembled numerous times with no additional make-up required. And all existing equipment can be upgraded with this new system.

This upgrade significantly reduces the chance for leakage at the compressor's joints. Straight thread, O-ring connections per SAE J514 are utilized on all joints instead of standard tapered pipe thread connections. The SAE connections depend on simple, replaceable O-rings for sealing rather than the interference of perfectly formed threads. Systems can be disassembled and reassembled numerous times with no additional make-up required.
