[0017] 2. Through the setting of the cleaning mechanism, when in use, the cleaning liquid can be pumped out from the liquid storage tank through the water pump, and then transported to the plate heat exchanger through the pipeline assembly. The flow and pressure of the water pump can be adjusted according to the feedback information of the detection assembly. The pressure of the liquid in the plate heat exchanger can be measured by the pressure detection valve to determine whether the plate heat exchanger needs to be cleaned. The solid content detector can determine whether the plate heat exchanger is clean. The filter plate can be used to perform graded filtration according to the size of the solid impurities and retain the solid impurities on the filter net. The slag outlet is used to discharge solid impurities. The solid impurities on the filter plate can be discharged by gravity to avoid clogging of the filter plate and affect the filtering effect.
