Our Process for Overhaul and F.A.A. Re-Certification includes these 25 steps:

1. Upon receipt, each oil cooler (or fuel heater, valve assembly, heat exchanger, condenser, or evaporator, herein after referred to as "unit") is checked for serial numbers and part numbers against customer purchase order or core / purchase documents.

2. Pacific Oil Cooler Service, Inc. work order number and green tag are assigned and attached to each unit.

3. Unit is pre-inspected by a certified technician for overall condition, reparability, A.D. status, and correct part number identification.

4. Unit is drained and disassembled.

5. Unit is cleaned in a vapor-degreaser, both inside and outside.

6. Outside areas are cleaned with compressed air to remove any contamination.

7. Appropriate hoses are attached to mate each unit with our flushing benches.

8. First pressure check is performed.

9. Unit is inspected for cracks and signs of leakage.

10. Unit is repaired, if repairable.

11. Ultra-sonic decontamination of all internal and external surfaces is performed using our exclusive, random waveform ultra-sound machinery.

12. Unit is flushed in both directions to X-Ray quality.

13. When bench flushing is complete, unit is internally cleaned with Trichlorethane to remove flushing compound.

14. Unit is then flushed in Stoddard solvent under high pressure and high volume, in both directions to X-Ray quality, until a 10-micron exhaust screen shows no contamination.

15. Unit is drained and blown dry.

16. Any needed fin straightening is performed.

17. Vernatherm is thermally tested for proper operation (if unit is so equipped), and replaced if necessary.

18. Seals and O-rings are replaced, if so equipped.

19. Unit is re-assembled and safety-wired as necessary.

20. Unit is again pressure-tested and inspected for any sign of leakage.

 If leaks are detected, they are repaired (if repairable). After repairs are successfully performed, unit is then re-flushed and resumes the overhaul process back at step #12

21. Unit is bead blasted and Iridite treated, then pressure tested for a third time.

22. All openings are sealed, protective plugs are applied as needed.

23. Unit is given Final Inspection.

24. Yellow Tag is completed and attached showing overhaul, cleaning, or remains, whichever is applicable - with reference made to Pacific Oil Cooler Service, Inc. work order number.

25. Unit is individually packaged to prevent contamination in preparation for customer delivery.

Cleaning procedures will be integrated with your Repair Spec. MJ-70-24-13-06-ES, and/or maintenance manuals from manufacturer, as necessary.
