Jetting makes use of small diameter hoses or tubing with spray nozzles attached, they are used to clean small diameter orifices such as heat exchangers, tube bundles and small pipes. Soft lances are 10m or longer and can be joined together for additional cleaning distances, they can also negotiate bends.
The Water Jetting application can also be used for cleaning larger diameter pipes, drains and sewer lines and the water pressure is also controlled via a foot control valve by the operator. The nozzles are self-propelled by directing more of the water pressure backwards and less forward. These hoses can be coupled together for cleaning longer distances.
Different jets can be adapted to clean the pipes, which means that deposits and severe blockages can be removed. In many cases, pipelines are fixed in place and offer only a few openings for access. In this case, cleaning with high water pressure is possible on site, without the need to deconstruct the pipe, particularly in hard-to-access facilities, whether it is due to high-up places, or narrow areas. In contrast to mechanical tools such as hammers, chisels and brushes, there is no danger of damage during cleaning. The high pressure water jet technology is a quick, simple and extremely cost-effective procedure. Using water as a cleaning medium is simple to recycle.
Some advantages of Water Jetting:
A The cleaning of pipes is feasible, even in hard-to-access areas
A Pipes with differing widths can be freed from dirt and deposits
A Water jetting causes no damages to the inner walls of the pipe
